Fly Fishing Report for Charlotte Harbor, Boca Grande, and Pine Island Sound

12/25/18 Winter fishing is in full swing with good water clarity at this time. This premier destination on the Southwest Gulf Coast continues to offer some of the best Redfish, Snook, and Sea Trout fishing found anywhere. Periodic rain could change things, but fishing is good to above average at this time.
