Hi,
Im leaving for the above area tomorrow. I have a few questions.

Has Red Tide made an appearance around the Skyway Fishing Pier? Thats one of my favorite places as the water there is usually beautiful and at least in the past has been a fun place to fish.

I’d also would be interested in kayak fishing as well. Id like a guide for that too.

Can someone provide me with the names and phone numbers of some guides for tarpon, trout, shark, king mackerel or any other fish now in the area?

If ocean fishing is out I’d be glad to hire a guide for bass, peacock bass, snakeheads, oscars or any other fun fish to catch? I realize i may have to drive at down to the Everglades or further. Are there any suggestions for which lakes to fish?

I am also interested in catching pythons. Im not sure if they are in season at this time. I don’t think they should have a season. I hate what they are doing to the environment. I’d be glad for any information on hiring a guide for that too.

I’m looking for some adventure. 😎😎

Nobody knows any good guides? Maybe the Red Tide got them all.

We fished yesterday at Skyway and no red tide.
Also, have seen many go out from Emerson Point in Palmetto for Kayak Fishing.

Thanks very much. I was at Skyway Pier yesterday. No Red Tide but caught nothing but pin fish on worms.

We were using live shrimp and greenbacks.

What kind of worms were you using?

My friend was using leftover night crawlers from another trip.

Did you catch much? I saw a few fish caught but that wind was hard to fish in and cast for mackerel.
