Florida Sportsman Watermen - Vero Beach Seatrout with Dean Hardie



In this episode, Sam meets up with longtime friend and fishing Captain, Dean Hardie, in their hometown of Vero Beach to target seatrout. Join them as they do their best to find active fish during a cold snap this past winter. They also discuss some of the issues that they have faced in recent years due to the loss of seagrass when it comes to targeting seatrout and other species.

Mike Conner, Florida Sportsman Conservation Editor, meets up with Sam during the show to discuss the parallel struggles of both the inshore seagrasses and healthy populations of seatrout.
