The end of summer sure is hot, but this means that the glass minnows and small fry white baits are beginning to move into the bays and canals along the coast from New Pass to Port Manatee making the fishing just as hot as the temperature. No matter where you are, when a hatch of [...]

I was lucky to grow up on Anna Maria Island. The island and its neighboring communities always had a laidback atmosphere. But being on the coast, there were plenty of things for us to do.

And winning a free ATV [...]

The “silver king” showed up in the Anna Maria Island/Longboat Key area very early this year. Usually, the tarpon season in the Tampa Bay or Boca Grande [...]
