Remember to get a license

It's licence time fellow fishermen. Don’t forget to get a fishing license if you’re going to fish from shore after August 1. You can pick one up from most tackle shops or the tax collector’s office and it will only cost you $9. Is there a better value ticket in the whole state?

Fishing action in and around Anna Maria Island has picked up thanks to some recent hot weather, with most captains and pleasure anglers reporting good catches of trout, redfish and catch-and-release snook around the shores and grouper and snapper going well in the deeper water.

One visitor who can vouch for the quality of grouper fishing off Anna Maria Island is Amy Sharma, who may have set a new world record for black grouper.

Amy was fishing with husband Andy aboard Team Legmakr with Capt. Anthony Manali and his wife Joann when she reeled in a 93.5-pounder in the Gulf of Mexico..

According to the AM Islander, both are frequent visitors to the Island. They certainly will be from now on... Check out the picture on the Islander's website here
