The Spanish are invading again!

Good news from Europe, the Spanish mackerels are here in numbers! According to the Islander's fishing expert, Paul Roat, they are showing off the beaches and bays around Anna Maria Island.
"Reports are at a catch-per-cast basis for the macks, already running up to 26 inches," he says. "Kingfish are soon to follow as long as the weather holds."
It might still be a little cold for snook in the back waters but the action should heat up as soon as the water does.
If you're getting withdrawal symptoms, here is a wonderful painting of a snook called "Mean Streak - Snook" by Mark Susinno. See it bigger at Free Spirit Art


Happy fishing and tight lines!
