Do fish really bite better in the morning? Sometimes!
Early mornings can be great for fishing around Tampa Bay, especially when the water's cooler and baitfish are active. But tides, weather, and water movement have a lot to do with when fish decide they're hungry.
We've had plenty of good fishing earlier and later in the day, too. The fish don't wear watches, and they certainly don't care what time you set your alarm!
Morning or afternoon, Captain Frankie knows what to look for when it's time to find the bite.
