We decided to head south to Sarasota on Saturday. Not having shot the area other than a holiday we didn't know exactly what to expect. We started in Big Pass and though the weather couldn't have been better we found the boat traffic to be well less than we expected and pretty evenly split between both sides of the channel. After posting up from the sand bar in the middle of the channel for an hour and a half we decided to try New Pass and then motored south on the ICW to Phillippi Creek.
