Finseekers Fishing Charters

As the cooler months settle in, winter fishing in Clearwater, Florida, is heating up! At Finseekers Fishing Charters, we've been enjoying some fantastic days on the water, with a wide variety of species biting both inshore and offshore. Whether you're a seasoned angler or a first-timer, now is the perfect



time to book your trip and experience the action for yourself.

Inshore Fishing: Trout and Redfish Galore

Inshore fishing has been incredibly productive, especially for speckled trout and redfish. The trout bite has been consistent, with live pilchards and shrimp proving to be the go-to baits. Casting into shallow grass flats and working around structures like docks and mangroves has been the key to success. These fish are hungry and ready to put up a fight, making for some exciting light-tackle action.

Redfish have also been cooperating, particularly during the warmer parts of the day. Targeting them around oyster bars and mangrove shorelines has yielded great results. Shrimp, once again, has been the ticket, with select live shrimp drawing aggressive strikes from these hard-fighting fish.

Offshore Fishing: Grouper, Snapper, Sheepshead, and Hogfish

For those looking to venture offshore, the winter bite has been nothing short of spectacular. We've been reeling in big grouper, mangrove snapper, sheepshead, and even the prized hogfish. These species are thriving in the cooler waters, and the action has been steady on our recent trips.

Select shrimp have been the MVP for our offshore adventures as well. Dropping them down to rocky ledges and reefs has been highly effective. Whether you're bottom fishing or targeting specific species, the bite has been on fire. Grouper and snapper are giving anglers a workout with their powerful runs, while sheepshead and hogfish offer a delicious reward for your efforts.
