March has arrived remarkably fast! January's difficult weather seems like a distantmemory, and February brought the welcome return of sunshine and more seasonaltemperatures, along with a surge of activity for the Marco Sportfishing Club.

We kicked off the month wrapping up two January fishing events: “Pompano Double Down” for our backwater anglers, and “Super Grouper” for the offshore enthusiasts.

The winners of both tournaments were announced at our February membership meeting, with full reports available in this newsletter.

That same meeting featured Captain Chris Turner, a Naples native, who shared his extensive knowledge of local fishing spots and techniques for winter species, from Sheepshead to Snook.
