Saturday, Sept 17 Outing
The September outing at Bay Vista Park at 7000 4th Street South in St. Pete is always one of our more popular outings. It’s a three-fer. You can launch a boat there, you can launch a kayak there, and you can wade-fish from there, too.
But you’re not limited to fishing there. At this outing you can fly fish Tampa Bay anywhere inside of the Sunshine Skyway all the way up to the St. Pete Pier.
Fishing should be pretty good. We’ll have a nice outgoing tide and moving water. Anglers, boating or wading, will be able to cast to seagrass or to the sandy potholes here and there. A $10 gift certificate will be awarded to the member catching the longest spotted seatrout. Take a picture. Measure it. Show the image to outings chair Bob Burkard back at the Bay Vista Park pavilion.
We’ll meet up at the pavilion at 11:45 for a hearty picnic lunch. Coffee and cold drinks will be ready before that.
