​Naples fishing this week started on a great note with big catches and warm weather and ended with a minor cold front changing the game. The cold front Wed night was just enough to make catching live pilchards to much for a small boat the action went from snook and jacks to sheepshead, snapper and trout.  But this time of year it's not always about catching the big ones but about having and creating some awesome memories.  Here is the DiPietro family taking there dad fishing and man where they a joy to have on the boat.

Fishing this week has ended on a positive note.  Strong full moon tides have created some very low tides be careful out there.  Bait has been making a good comeback and the snook are loving them.  If you do get a chance and want to change up the pace a little bit throw some flies in the back country for some good snook action.  Sheepshead and trout can still be targeted using shrimp and jigs and look for redfish on the higher stages of the tides.  The water should be warming this week to make for some great conditions.

This weeks fishing has been fantastic with trout being the main catches. Water temps have stayed relatively cool 65-68degrees making fish a little hesitant to chase down a fast moving pilchard.  Shrimp and Jigs have been the best producer for these tasty fish. Check into Mike's Bait House for Capt. Roan's special jigs.  Look for weather to keep water temps climbing which will trigger an improvement in the Snook and Redfish bite.
