OFFSHORE-  Dolphin fishing was a little hit or miss this week; but still a few reports coming in.  Depths for the dolphin bounced all over the place; with some being caught in a 100' and others in 1300'.  No big dolphin to report, but still a few decent size ones mixed in with the schoolies.  This should be a really good weekend for wahoo fishing.  The full moon is on Sunday, weather conditions look nice, water quality has been good, and plenty of bait around for the wahoo to eat.  Look for the wahoo to be in 120-150' of water early and late in the day; and a little deeper (200-300') when the sun is up a little higher.  High speed trolling with a Cowbell or Yo-Zuri Bonita is a good option early or late in the day.  When the sun gets up a little higher try sliding out a little deeper and get the baits down.  A split tail mullet behind a planer or trolling sinker is a good idea; as is a Nomad DTX minnow.  In on the edge the kingfish and bonita have been around in good numbers.  The kingfish bite has been best at night with the moon, but they are still biting a little during the day as well.  Snapper fishing remained good this week.  Some good size mutton snapper around , along with some big yellowtail as well.  Should be a really nice weekend offshore...just be ready for a crowd! 

INSHORE-  Catch and release snook fishing remains the best bet on the inshore side of things.  Fish early and late for best luck with the snook.  Look for the snook to be closer to the inlets for the most part.  The spillway bite has been slow with no rain to speak of.  

SURF/PIER-  Juno Beach Pier and local beaches closed this weekend.  Not much in the way of access this weekend on the beach.  Still some good schools of minnows along the beach up and down.  Tarpon, jacks, and snook have all been around the minnow schools.  Some sharks in the mix as well.  Should be good snook fishing on the backside of the full moon when the beach opens back up Monday.

OFFSHORE-  Dolphin reports were good this week, with a lot of fish coming in 500-700' of water.  Most of the fish have been averaging 5-8lbs; with a few bigger fish in the mix.  Trolling bonita strips and squid has been a pretty safe bet for the dolphin.  The blackfin tuna are still hanging around in fair numbers in 200-300' of water.  With the moon getting bigger this weekend, expect the wahoo action to pick up.  High speeding for the wahoo along the 120' ledge early and late in the day will be a good way to target the wahoo.  As the sun comes up more push out a little deeper and get the baits down below the surface.  Trolling a Nomad DTX minnow in the spread always gets you a chance at the wahoo.  KIngfish remain in good numbers along the 120' ledge, along with plenty of bonita.  Snapper fishing has been good this week.  Look for the best action in around 90' of water, with sardines being the top bait choice.  

INSHORE-  Inshore fishing is a bit tough now; with hot temps slowing the fish down for the most part.  Catch and release snook fishing will be the main inshore draw.  Go early and late for best luck inshore right now, or fish at night.  Could also be some tarpon cruising around inshore right now.  Mangrove snapper action has been fair inshore.  

SURF/PIER-  The glass minnow schools remain scattered up and down the beach, and the fish aren't far behind.  Snook, tarpon, jacks, blue runners, and others are all taking advantage of the easy meals.  Small flashy jigs, spoons, swimbaits, and small swimming plugs are all a good way to go around the minnow schools.  The Juno Beach Pier continues to produce good catch and release snook action, as does Jupiter Inlet.  The snook are also along the beach in very good numbers right now.  Calm clear conditions provide for good chance to sight fish some big ones cruising in the first trough. 

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...East winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas around 2 feet. Period 4 seconds. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop.

SATURDAY...East winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas around 2 feet. Period 4 seconds. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Slight chance of showers in the afternoon.

SUNDAY...East winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas less than 2 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Chance of showers and thunderstorms.

​OFFSHORE:  A fair mixture of offshore reports this week.  Dolphin fishing was fair for some, not so great for others.  Best bet for the dolphin is to start running and don't stop till you seem something that looks good outside of 400' of water.  Well defined weedlines, floating debris, rips, or and color changes will all be good spots to start the search.  Blackfin Tuna are still around in good numbers from 200-300' of water.  Mixed in with the blackfin have been a good number of summertime sailfish.  Look for the sailfish to be a bit deeper; and while they may come up for a kite bait, don't overlook putting a bait down a bit deeper for them.  Kingfish are on the 120' ledge in good numbers.  Get a live bait down 10-15' below the surface for best chance at the kingfish.  Snapper fishing has been very good this week.  Good reports of red grouper, mutton snapper, yellowtail snapper, and some very good size mangroves around.  Sardines will be the top bait choice on the bottom.  

INSHORE:  Snook fishing has been pretty good inshore.  Pretty standard summertime pattern on the snook.  If the spillways are open look for them to be close by.   Otherwise they will be around the bridges and close to the inlets.   Look for the usual lures to produce on the snook (stick to Flare Hawks, big Swimbaits, and similar for good results).  Smaller snook have been on the docklights pretty good.  Vudu and DOA Shrimp are great lures when fishing around the docklights.  Other inshore action is a bit on the slow side.  A few scattered tarpon reports, and a scattering of jacks around.  No reports to speak of lately on the snapper inshore.  

SURF/PIER:  The past few days has saw  the water from Jupiter Inlet south looking pretty dirty and brown (Lots of fresh water in it).  Water to the north of Jupiter Inlet has looked better and the fish have noticed.  While the Juno Beach Pier has still been producing some Spanish Mackerel, jacks, and fair amount of snook.  The bulk of the action has moved up to the north.  Jupiter Island and Hobe Sound  beaches have had a lot of very large glass minnow schools, and lots of predators close behind.  Bonita, jacks, snook, tarpon, and even a few random late season bluefish have all been in the minnow schools up to the north.  A small flashy jig or spoon, small swimbait, or swimming plug are all good choices for fishing around the minnow schools.  Pompano reports slowed this week, but sounds like a handful of them are still being caught up to the north.  

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...Southeast winds 5 to 10 knots along the coast to southeast 5 to 15 knots in the Gulf Stream. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Period 4 seconds. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Showers likely in the morning. Chance of thunderstorms. Showers in the afternoon.

SATURDAY...East southeast winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas around 2 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Showers likely and slight chance of thunderstorms in the morning, then chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon.

SUNDAY...East southeast winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas less than 2 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Chance of showers and thunderstorms.

OFFSHORE-  Dolphin reports remain scattered from 400-1000' of water.  It's a run and gun deal so be prepared to go looking for them.  Full summertime pattern so don't stop until you find a good color change, weedline, rip, debris, or some other fishy looking sign.  Still a good number of Blackfin Tuna around in 200-300' of water.  Kingfish action remains good along the 120' ledge.  Live sardines, pilchards, or threadfis will be the way to go for the kings.  Snapper fishing has been very good along the bottom.  Some very nice mutton, mangrove, and yellowtail snapper all being reported.  Sardines remain the bait of choice for the snapper. 

INSHORE-  Snook fishing remains the main game in town (as usual!).  The Spillways have been holding a good number of snook, as have the bridges.  Look for some tarpon to be in and around the spillways as well.  Scattered reports of some mangrove snapper inshore.  Other inshore action remains slow.  

SURF/PIER- Catch and release snook fishing remains very good along the beach, in the Inlets, and at the Juno Beach Pier.  Live sandperch and croakers remain the top bait for targeting big fish.  At night Flair Hawk Jigs, SpoolTek's, and bigger swimbaits will be a good way to go for the snook.  Scattering of Spanish Mackerel along the beach.  Tarpon have also been pushing along the beach.  Still been some late season pompano being caught north of Jupiter Inlet.  Fishbites, Sandfleas,  and clams are the way to go for the pomps.  

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...East northeast winds 10 to 15 knots with gusts to around 20 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Period 4 seconds. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers in the morning. Slight chance of thunderstorms. Slight chance of showers in the afternoon.

SATURDAY...East winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Period 4 seconds. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers and slight chance of thunderstorms.

OFFSHORE-  Weather this week has kept reports (and fishing pressure) for the most part to a minimum this week.  Sailfish action (a bit deeper than the usual winter time hangouts of 120-200) in 200-300' of water was good again this week with quite a few fish around.  Blackfin tuna, including some good size ones still, were around in the same 200-300' depth range.  Live baits fished 15-20' below the surface are the way to go for the bigger Blackfins.  Coming up on the full moon this weekend...should be some wahoo around.  Hopefully all this weather doesn't mess up the water quality too much and the hoo's snap a bit!  Dolphin fishing remains hit or miss at best.  Kingfish action in along the 120' ledge remains pretty good, with some solid size fish around.  Snapper fishing was fair again this week, with a few cobia still being caught on the bottom as well.

INSHORE-  Snook fishing at the Spillways has been very good this week.  Don't forget we're in June already...they all have to go back for a few more months.  Flair Hawk jigs, Swimbaits, and swimming plugs have all been good choices for the snook at the spillways currently.  Still a few tarpon around inshore, as well as a few jacks.  Other inshore action has been a bit slow.

SURF/PIER-  Still a surprisingly good bite from some late season pompano over the past week.  Sandfleas and FishBItes remain the bait of choice for the pompano.  Look for the early morning and late afternoon to be best.  Spanish Mackerel are still being caught at the Juno Beach Pier, with white crappie jigs being the lure of choice for them.  Catch and release snook fishing remains very good at the Juno Beach Pier and in the Inlets.  

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...Southeast winds 10 to 15 knots with gusts to around 20 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Period 4 seconds. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Slight chance of thunderstorms in the morning. Showers likely. Chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

SATURDAY...Southeast winds around 15 knots with gusts to around 20 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers through the day. Slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

SUNDAY...South southeast winds around 15 knots with gusts to around 20 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Chance of showers and thunderstorms.

OFFSHORE-  Dolphin reports were very scattered this week.  Hard to say where to go look for them as reports of scattered dolphin came in from 250-1500' of water.   Blind trolling produced some dolphin, as did running and gunning in search of floating debris.  Small ballyhoo, bonita strips, and trolling squid are all good bait choices for the dolphin right now.  Blackfin tuna are being caught in 200-300' of water on small trolling feathers and small daisy chains.  Kingfish bite has been pretty good in 100-200' of water from the Juno Beach Pier to Jupiter Inlet.  Live sardines are the top bait choice for the kings, with dead sardines also producing a fair number of bites as well.  Snapper fishing has been a bit day to day.  One day the mutton and yellowtail reports are very good, the next day it seems tough to buy a bite.  Sardines remain the bait of choice on the bottom.  

INSHORE-  Snook fishing remains good inshore right now, especially closer to the inlets. Jupiter Inlet has had a good snook bite over the past week.   Last weekend to invite a snook home for dinner for a few months so don't miss out on the opportunity!  Still a fair number of tarpon around inshore, along with some nice bruiser jacks.  Mangrove snapper fishing has been improving inshore as well.  

SURF/PIER-  The Juno Beach Pier has had pretty solid snook action this week.  The snook have been biting live baits, dead sardines on bottom, as well as swimbaits early in the morning.  Spanish Mackerel action has also been good at the pier, with white crappie jigs being the best lure choice.  Still a fair number of late season pompano around, especially as you travel a little farther north.

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...East southeast winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas around 2 feet. Period 4 seconds. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers and slight chance of thunderstorms through the day.

SATURDAY...East southeast winds around 10 knots. Seas around 2 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Chance of showers and slight chance of thunderstorms.

SUNDAY...East southeast winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas less than 2 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Slight chance of showers in the morning. Slight chance of thunderstorms through the day. Chance of showers.

OFFSHORE-  The blackfin tuna, including some very good sized ones, continue to be the best news offshore.  Look for the tuna to bite best early in the morning and late in the afternoon in 200-300' of water out of Palm Beach Inlet.  Live baits fished down a little deeper on light leader have been the key for catching the bigger blackfin tuna.  Dolphin reports were a little hit or miss this week.  Biggest factor in dolphin fishing (as it usually is) is some luck in finding them.  No depth in particular for the dolphin so be prepared to cover some water to find them.  Kingfish are around in good numbers as well.  The kings have been scattered from the Juno Beach Pier to the Loran Tower in 120-150' of water.  Live baits will be the best bet for the kings.  Still a fair number of late season sailfish around.  Bottom fishing remains pretty good, with a nice mix of yellowtail and mutton snapper around.  Sardines and threadfins remain the bait of choice for the bottom fish.  After Friday the weather report looks pretty good offshore...should be a good weekend to get after it! 

INSHORE-  Snook fishing remains good inshore.  Good amounts of bait inshore right now have the snook fired up and eating as they begin to move towards the inlet.  Live pilchards and threadfins will be top bait choices for the snook, while flair hawk jigs and swimbaits in pearl and green/white color combos are also getting bit good.  Only another week of snook season so be sure to get after them now before the summer closed season.  The tarpon have still been back in the Loxahatchee River.  Look for them to be up rolling early in the morning.  Mangrove snapper are starting to bite decently, especially around the bridges at night.  Small live pilchards and live shrimp will be good bait choices for them.  

SURF/PIER-  Reports have been a bit slower than expected from the Juno Beach Pier and local beaches this week as anglers hit the boards and sand after a two month break.  Calm clear conditions (Monday-Wed Morning) and now a building swell for a few days will further complicate getting the reports dialed in.  The snook are starting to show up on the beach, and at the pier.  The water temp is still a bit cool, so the snook are not fired up on the lures just yet.  On the pier live baits (which have been a bit tough to come by) and dead sardines have been the ticket for the snook.  Lots of glass minnows on the beach over the past few days, with a decent number of Spanish Mackerel following along with them. Tarpon have been along the beach in goods numbers as well.  The tarpon for the most part have been out of range from shore bound anglers. The Jupiter Inlet has had a few snook around, along with a good number of moonfish.  Not much to report on the pompano locally this week, but reports of fish up in Martin County and farther north continue to come in.  FishBites and sand fleas remain the bait of choice for the pompano.  

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...East southeast winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas 4 to 6 feet with occasional seas to 8 feet. Period 11 seconds becoming 4 seconds in the afternoon. North northeast swell 4 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Slight chance of showers in the afternoon.

SATURDAY...East winds around 10 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Slight chance of showers.

SUNDAY...East winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas around 2 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers through the day. Slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

MONDAY...East winds 10 to 15 knots with gusts to around 20 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers. Slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

OFFSHORE:  Offshore fishing remained good again this week for those able to get out.  Still seeing a nice late season sailfish bite, with most boats getting multiple chances.  While the sail bite has bounced around a bit, it seems a little more consistent down to the south of Palm Inlet.  The Blackfin Tuna bite remains very good out of Palm Beach Inlet as well.  The tuna are biting best in 200-300' of water, especially early in the morning and late in the afternoon.  Live pilchards are a great bait choice for he bigger blackfin.  Try to keep the leader light and get the baits down a bit for the best luck.  Kingfish remain scattered along the 120' ledge in good numbers from the Juno Beach Pier to the Loran Tower.  The big school continues to push around a bit, but pretty much up and down the line has a chance to produce some fish.  Snapper fishing was good as well again this week.  Some really big yellowtail snapper being caught in 90' of water off the Juno Beach Pier, along with a good scattering of mutton snapper.  

INSHORE:  Snook fishing remains very good inshore.  The best action remains at night around the bridges; but the inlets are also starting to produce very well during the day as well.  Flairhawk jigs and big swimbaits are working at the bridges, while live bait is going to be key in the inlet.  Look for the top of the outgoing tide to produce the best results, but windy rough conditions offshore could stir the water up enough to trigger a good incoming bite as well.  Other inshore action remains fair.  Still a fair number of tarpon around inshore, along with a good scattering of jacks.  Good action on sandperch in the ICW as well right now using cut shrimp.  

SURF/PIER:   Up to the north the pompano are still biting, but action is definitely beginning to slow on them.  Sandfleas, clams, and FishBItes remain the bait of choice for the pomps.  Croaker are biting small pieces of shrimp in the first trough.  Snook are starting to get out on the beach a bit more, along with the start of the tarpon moving north.  NOt much of a forecast for the beach this weekend, but hopefully we will see some more access open up next week along with a little nicer weather! 

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...East northeast winds 15 to 20 knots with gusts to around 30 knots along the coast to east northeast 20 to 25 knots with gusts to around 35 knots in the Gulf Stream. Seas 5 to 7 feet with occasional seas to 9 feet. Period 6 seconds. Intracoastal waters rough in exposed areas. Slight chance of thunderstorms in the morning. Showers. Chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

SATURDAY...North northwest winds 10 to 15 knots with gusts to around 20 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet with occasional seas to 6 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Slight chance of thunderstorms in the morning. Chance of showers. Chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

SUNDAY...North winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet with occasional seas to 6 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop.

OFFSHORE-  Fishing has been good offshore again this week.  Best action has, for the most part, remained in 120-300' of water.  Springtime fishing is in full effect with a good assortment of species around.  Kingfish, blackfin tuna, cobia, and sailfish have provided most of the action offshore.  Live baiting with pilchards, threadfin, and sardines (all of which have been pretty readily available on local bait spots) is going to provide the most action along the edge right now.  Drifting with dead baits (threadfins, sardines, and ballyhoo) will also produce good results as well.  Best action will be early morning and late afternoon.  Backside of the full moon will hopefully provide some good wahoo action this weekend.  Dolphin fishing was a bit slower this week, but still a fair number of them around.  Just takes some looking to find them right now.  Out deeper the tilefish action has been good this week; with squid being the bait of choice for them.  Inside the 120' ledge snapper fishing remains good on the bottom.  Been some really nice mutton snapper caught over the past week.  Sardines (preferably fresh caught ones) will be the best bait on the bottom, but bonita strips will also get some solid bites.

INSHORE-  Snook fishing has been good this week, with some good numbers of fish pushing towards the inlets.  The bridges are producing a pretty good bite at night, especially on an outgoing tide.  With very clear water around this week, the later part of the outgoing tide will provide a little dirtier water and easier chance to trick the snook.  The tarpon have also been around in good numbers.  Flair hawk jigs (especially the new Justice Jigs we have in-stock) and SpoolTek's remain a solid choice at the bridge.  Mangrove snapper are showing up inshore in better numbers over the past week.  Live shrimp and small live pilchards will be the best bait for the mangroves.    

SURF/PIER-  Still not much access on the beach locally, but up the coast surf fishing has been good.  Solid pompano bite starting at Hutchison Island and north over the past week.  Sandfleas, clams, and FishBites will be the best bait for the pomps.  Some big jacks cruising the beach this week.  Good number of tarpon moving north over the past week.  Should be about time for the early season snook to start showing up along the beach as well.  

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...Southeast winds 5 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet along the coast and 3 to 5 feet with occasional to 6 feet in the Gulf Stream. Period 7 seconds. Intracoastal waters a light chop.

SATURDAY...West winds 5 to 10 knots becoming east northeast in the afternoon. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. .

SUNDAY...East southeast winds 10 to 15 knots with gusts to around 25 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet along the coast and 3 to 5 feet with occasional to 6 feet in the Gulf Stream. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Showers and slight chance of thunderstorms.

OFFSHORE-  Pretty good mixed bag action offshore this week.  Sailfish action remains good for late in the season.  Decent number of dolphin around, but they remain very scattered depth wise.  Blackfin action is good in 200-300' of water.  Troll small feathers for best luck on the tuna.  The Yo-Zuri High Speed Vibe has also been producing some very nice sized blackfin.  Kingfish action has been very good in 120-150' of water.  Cobia remain scattered along the 120' ledge as well.  Overall, it's very good spring time fishing offshore right now.  NIce looking forecast for the weekend...take advantage of it! 

INSHORE-  Snook fishing remains good inshore, and with the ability to get access snook reports should improve.  THe snook are definitly pushing towards the inlets, with bridges close by being a great starting spot for them.  Look for bigger swimbaits and jigs to be good for the snook now, as they key in on bigger baits.  Lots of bait inshore right now, so jacks and tarpon should be around as well.  About time for some mangrove snapper to start showing up inshore.   

SURF/PIER-  Surf reports up to the north have been very good.  Pompano fishing has been very good, with some nice size fish in the mix  Sandfleas, clams, and FishBItes have all been working well for the pompano.  Croakers and whiting have been biting good on small pieces of shrimp.  Some nice schools of jacks cruising around to test your tackle.  Snook are starting to show up a little bit on the beach.  Some tarpon cruising the beach as well.  

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...North winds 5 to 15 knots. Seas around 2 feet along the coast and 2 to 4 feet with occasional to 5 feet in the Gulf Stream. Period 5 seconds. Intracoastal waters a light chop.

SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...East winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop.
