Nov-Dec 2021 Naples Fishing Guide Fishing Report

Fishing here in SWFL has been fantastic with lots of snook, trout, pompano and permit kicking off the season.  With the continuing cold front pushing through and water temps starting to drop look for these fish to move into the backcountry.  Focus on areas with deep troughs as that as that will be where you will find these fish holding up.  using bucktail jigs tipped with shrimp, 1/4oz jigs with 3 inch Gulp Shrimp we be your best baits of choice.  Stop into Mike's Bait House and grab some of these jigs tied by Capt. Roan to help improve your catches this time of year.  Pilchards are still around but remember as the water drops into the 60's it's time to start switching up the game.   Look for conditions to be good over the next weeks so water temps should climb back into the mid 70's heating up the snook and redfish bite.
