fin-addict Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 This is the first post I have seen here forever. Did not think there were any fishing done in the sw anymore. Here’s a few pics over the last two months. Charlotte Harbor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LenC Posted May 18, 2021 Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 Carlos, the Lee County beaches have had many Red Tide assaults in the last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCFD rtrd. Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 Exactly, Lee and Collier Counties have taken the brunt of the Red Tide so far this year. But, it's not nearly as bad as 2017. I was on the water last Wednesday in Lee County and saw hundreds of Snook (mostly large) and dozens of Redfish. They were concentrated in an area where the water was crystal clear. They were not biting because the tide was a very, very slow incoming (bad moon). But, was nice to see they are there and healthy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcathey Posted June 12, 2021 Report Share Posted June 12, 2021 Red tide effected North Captiva at all recently? Headed down June 18-27, always been in July and hoping there are plenty of poons around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fin-addict Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 Understanding the bite has been excellent in that area with many big snook. Poons off the beach and in the passes. Not many reds reported but they are big. Also sharks. The harbor is also doing good as are the two bays, Turtle & Bulls. Tight lines to you. 😀👍⚓️Fin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
