Fishing in Fort Myers is heating up!

Fishing is really starting to heat up in Estero Bay and the Gulf waters thanks to warmer water temperatures and excellent spring tides. Redfish are starting to show and there have been quite a few nice snapper caught on the near shore reefs. Sheepshead are everywhere and are getting bigger and bigger thanks to the spawn. They make a great dinner and are fairly easy to catch.

Fishing is coming along and the sheepshead are in full spawn mode. They are moving from the backwaters to the nearshore reefs daily. Big sheepies to 8 pounds are being taken on the reefs and rock piles and 2 to 4 pounders are on the inside. Shrimp on a light wire hook or small jig heads have been the go-to method. Capt. Sean said that lots of trout are starting to move into the bay as well but it has been a “here today, gone tomorrow” kind of thing. Live shrimp under a popping cork seems to do the trick. Redfish are starting to show more regularly as well and fishing for them should improve as the weather warms.
