Mr Zagorski: Whitebait in Tampa? I don't have a clue but I can assure you it is eaten in England and they are about the size of spearing in mid July here. It is deep fried (what isn't over there?) and tastes a bit better than you would imagine.

I fished with a family friend on his boat a few years back for snook at night around docks with underwater lights. Had great action with snook up to 34" on green backs. Also fished the Sunshine Skyway pier caught flounder, sea trout, Spanish macks and sheepshead. I think it was only $4 to fish the pier and you don't need a liscense. It is open 24hrs.

Nice job! Looks like fun! :-) I've been on a couple bottom fishing trips from Tarpon Springs, but nothing to speak of besides grunts, a hogfish and some other pan fryers
