At the end of mill st. off coleman blvd is Shem Creek Marina.
Also on Coleman is Hadrells Bait and Tackle next door to Royal ace Hardware.
Have a great trip!
You are leaving the Trout spot of the world to fish here.Are you nuts? This has to be because the Wife wants to visit the City.No Trout Man I know ever would leave Steinhatchee EVER!!! If i lived closer that’s where I would fish.Some of the guys that fish Mt P area will help you out.July not a good time for trout in the stono.

Shem Creek landing is fine, I use it quite a bit but if you do not get there early you may have to park up in the shopping center parking lot. It has 2 ramps. and it can also be hectic getting out later in the afternoon. Plus you will probably have to dodge a lot of kayakers and paddleboards as there is a rental shop on Shem Creek. (not dissing them, I kayak, there are just quite a few at times). You may also want to give Remley Point landing a try. It is on teh other side of Hwy 17. They have more parking, 3 ramps and it would put you on the Wando for a different area to fish.
How far is Steinhatchee from Weeki Wachee? Have you ever fished the Weeki Wachee, Bayport, Hernando Beach area? I will be down there in July. Any tips for me???
Good luck
I would definitley stay in FL, I grew up in Ocala and fished ceadar key, crystal river, steinhatchee, and yankee town all my life and i can not wait to get back there.
