OFFSHORE-  Sailfish action continues to improve almost daily.  Livebaiting with goggle eyes in 150-200' of water from the Juno Beach Pier to Jupiter Inlet should continue to produce sailfish chances on a daily basis.  Dolphin action is spotty, but a few good ones continue to be caught in 200-350' of water; primarily on trolled ballyhoo.  Good number of kingfish scattered along the 120' ledge.  Bottom fishing remains very good, with a nice number of snapper continuing to come in.  
Sardines remain the bait of choice along the bottom for snapper.

INSHORE-  Snook season is winding down, so get after them now if your looking for one to take home for dinner.  Look for snook fishing to be best at night around bridges and docklights.  The shrimp jig is an awesome lure choice for the snook right now.  Sheepshead and black drum are showing up inshore in good numbers.  Live shrimp remains a top bait choice for them.  A handful of pompano are being reported inshore, but no big numbers to speak of. A few more good cold fronts could quickly change that.  

SURF/PIER- Pompano bite slowed a bit this week, but still a fair number being caught up to the north just a bit.  North winds in the forecast could help push a few more fish our way over the weekend.  Spanish Mackerel action has been good north of Jupiter Inlet, with Peck's Lake beginning to produce more consistent catches.  The Juno Beach Pier has also been producing a fair number of Spanish Mackerel, with a few kingfish in the mix as well.  Bluefish action remains a bit off, with fewer fish around than you would expect for this time of year.

OFFSHORE:  Conditions look good for a little sailfish bite this weekend.  Numbers up to the north have been increasing, and it won't be much longer before they are snapping good here.  A few boats are putting together multiple releases on a near daily basis, so get those kites out and ready.  Scattering of dolphin being caught in 200-350' of water, including a handful of nice ones.  Kingfish remain scattered up and down the 120' ledge in good numbers.  Bottom fishing remains good as well.  

INSHORE:  Snook fishing remains good around the bridges at night.  Starting to be that time of year when the snook get keyed in nicely on shrimp.  Starting to hear about better numbers of sheepshead taking up their wintertime spots around bridge pilings and boat docks as well.  Hard to beat a live shrimp for them!  Hobe Sound Flats continue to produce nice mixed bag action.  

SURF/PIER:  Good surf fishing continues with some nice catches of pompano coming in.  Sandfleas, clams, and FIshBItes remain the baits of choice for the pomps.  Good number of Spanish Mackerel around.  They are beginning to start to fill in at Peck's LAke and are scattered up and down the beach as well.  Bluefish action remains good.  Looks like nice weekend coming up...get after it!

OFFSHORE-  Offshore reports are a bit slow this week, no doubt largely to the rough ocean at the beginning of the week.   Sailfish action remains fair, but has not went off yet to speak of.  Each passing cold front should help to get them going a little better.  The usual kite fishing routine is producing some fair sailfish catches; just no big numbers yet to speak of.  A handful of scattered dolphin being caught in 150-300' of water, including a few decent size gaffers.  Decent little number of kingfish are scattered along the 120' ledge.  A few wahoo are still being caught in 150' of water.  Snapper fishing remains pretty good along the bottom, with a handful of grouper in the mix as well.  Sardines will remain the bait of choice on the bottom.  

INSHORE-  Inshore fishing has been pretty good with the changing season.  Snook are still biting fairly well in the Loxahatchee River during the day, and around docklights and bridges at night.  Another front or two and the snook will really be keyed in on shrimp; as it is now they are biting a wide variety of baits.  Jigs and swimbaits are producing well, especially around the bridges.  DOA and Vudu shrimp lures are top choices around docklights.  The Hobe Sound flats have continued to produce nice mixed bag action.  A few pompano, jacks, ladyfish, and others are all in the mile marker 40-44 range.  Some big jacks pushing around in the Loxahatchee River right now.   Live mullet or a noisy topwater fished along seawalls is a solid choice for the jacks currently.  

SURF/PIER-  Following the swell this week the fishing is GOING OFF along the beach and also at the Juno Beach Pier.  The Spanish Mackerel made a HUGE showing over the past few days in a big way.  The Mackerel showed up pretty much from Jupiter to Palm Beach Inlet just about overnight.  Bluefish also showed up in solid numbers with the macs.  Silver spoons, gotcha plugs, diamond jigs, and just about anything else you threw in the water was being demolished over the past few days.  Forecast looks good for the fish to stick around as well.  Pompano fishing remains very good, with some solid numbers coming in from both the surf and pier.  Sandfleas and FishBItes are the top bait choices from the beach.  Doc's Goofy Jigs are catching them on the Pier.  The sharks continue to hang around in good numbers as well.  Lots of fish along the beach right now...great time to go! 

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...East winds 5 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 5 feet. Period 5 seconds. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop.

​
OFFSHORE-  Less than ideal weather offshore has kept reports a bit slim again this week.  A handful of wahoo reports did come in with the full moon before the weather blew up.  Sailfish action has started to improve, and should only continue to get better with each passing cold front.  Kite fishing with goggle eyes and blue runners will remain the tactic of choice from the Loran Tower south.  Look for the sails to be in 100-200' of water for the most part.  Dolphin, including some good size gaffers, should be mixed in with the sails as well.  A few cobia also being reported in the mix.  Bottom fishing remains strong for this time of year.  Good snapper reports, a handful of grouper, and a stray cobia or two are keeping things interesting on the bottom.  Sardines remain the bait of choice on the bottom. 

INSHORE-  Snook fishing continues to remain strong around the bridges and in the Loxahatchee River.  The snook are eating shrimp at night around the bridges and docklights; while a live mullet remains the bait of choicefor the snook during the day.  Mixed in with the snook have been some bruiser jacks as well.  Look for the jacks to be along seawalls that have a few feet of water up against them.  A live mullet fished tight to the wall won't go unoticed for long if they are around.  The resident Lox River Tarpon have been biting pretty good over the past few weeks.  Hobe Sound Flats continue to produce a nice mixed bag of species.  Ladyfish, jacks, pompano, bluefish, snapper, snook, and a few trout are all being caught from Mile Marker 40 to Mile Marker 44.  Live shrimp is a solid bait choice for fishing the flats up that way.  

SURF/PIER-  Pompano action has remained very strong along the beach and at the Juno Beach Pier this week.  Doc's Goofy Jigs are a solid lure choice at the Pier; while sandfleas, clams, and FishBItes are the baits of choice along the beach.  Look for the pomps to bite best during lowlight periods of the day, especially if it lines up with a high tide.  Bluefish remain a bit sporadic, but are coming through in decent numbers.  Silver spoons, diamond jigs, noisy popping plugs, and cut mullet are all good choices for the blues.  Blacktip sharks are along the beach in good numbers, and a lot of fun on light tackle.  Spanish Mackerel should start to show in better numbers at pretty much anytime as well.

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...Southwest winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas 4 to 6 feet with occasional seas to 8 feet. Period 9 seconds. North northeast swell 3 feet in the morning. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Showers likely. Slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

SATURDAY...Northwest winds 15 to 20 knots. Along the coast, seas 2 to 3 feet. In the Gulf Stream, seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 5 feet building to 4 to 6 feet with occasional seas to 8 feet in the afternoon. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers in the morning, then slight chance of showers in the afternoon.

SUNDAY...North winds 10 to 15 knots with gusts to around 25 knots along the coast to north 15 to 20 knots in the Gulf Stream. Along the coast, seas 5 to 7 feet with occasional seas to 9 feet building to 8 to 10 feet with occasional seas to 13 feet in the afternoon. In the Gulf Stream, seas 10 to 12 feet with occasional seas to 15 feet. North northeast swell 3 to 7 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Slight chance of showers.

OFFSHORE- Sailfish action has been improving, and should be very good this weekend with passing cold front.  The “Dust em’ Off” Sailfish tournament kicks the season off for us, and should only improve from here on out.  Best action on the sails has been down south of Palm Beach Inlet in 150-200’ of water.  As usual live goggle eyes and small blue runners will be the way to go for bait.  Not much on the dolphin this week, but don’t be surprised to hear of a few big ones being mixed in with the sailfish this weekend.  Bottom fishing was good again this week with some nice snapper catches coming in.  Ninety feet of water from the Juno Beach Pier up to Jupiter Inlet has been a very safe bet on good bottom fishing action. 
 
INSHORE- Some pretty good reports this week on the inshore side of things.  The Munyon Island flats have been holding snook, jacks, ladyfish, and a few others.  A small swimming plug (like a Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnow) is a solid lure choice right now.  The snook are stacking up on docklights in good number, and are keying in on shrimp.  Fish moving water (incoming or outgoing tide) with live shrimp, shrimp imitating lures, or small swimming plugs for fast action on the snook.  The Hobe Sound flats are coming to life with cooling water temps.  Snook, jacks, pompano, ladyfish, bluefish, and others are all hanging out in fair numbers up that way. 
 
SURF/PIER- Pompano action remains steady along the beach and at the Juno Beach Pier.  Along the beach the bait fishermen are doing best using sandfleas, clams, and FishBites.  Anglers on the pier are finding the best action throwing Doc’s Goofy Jigs in bright colors.  Early morning and late afternoon have been producing the best action on the pompano.  Bluefish action has been steadily improving as well, and should continue to improve as we see some more cold fronts push through.  Spanish Mackerel are increasing in numbers at the Juno Beach Pier.  Small clark spoons, gotcha lures, and crappie jigs are the best lure choices for the Mackerel.  A handful of kingfish are hanging around at the Juno Beach Pier.  Good numbers of blacktip sharks around as well.  Lots of fun to catch them from the beach on light tackle.  Fresh chunks of bait at night is the way to go for the sharks.  
 
NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...North northeast winds 5 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Period 7 seconds. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Slight chance of light showers in the morning, then chance of light showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon.

In the Gulf Stream, seas 6 to 8 feet with occasional seas to 10 feet building to 9 to 11 feet with occasional seas to 14 feet in the afternoon. Period 7 seconds. North swell 3 to 5 feet in the afternoon. Intracoastal waters choppy in exposed areas. Showers likely . Slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

​OFFSHORE- Reports were slim again this week; and the weather doesn’t look especially exciting for the upcoming weekend.  A few scattered dolphin reports coming in from 400-600’ of water, but no consistency to speak of on the dolphin.  Trolling the usual dolphin baits and lures (ballyhoo, squid, bonita strips, and small jetheads)  is the best way to go for the dolphin.  Sailfish reports were slim this week, with the prevailing southeast wind not helping.  A little northeast wind in the upcoming forecast could/should help fire the sails up.  Wahoo fishing remains very good to the south of us, and in the Bahamas as well; but is a slow pick for the most part in our local area.  Scattering of kingfish along the 120’ ledge.  Bottom fishing reports have been pretty good this week.  Some nice mutton snappers (Including reports of muttons over 10lbs!) and a few cobia around.  Sardines remain the bait of choice along the bottom.
 
INSHORE- The inshore fishing was a bit of a toss up this week. The big news was some good action heating up around Munyon Island.  A nice push of finger mullet around Munyon Island and in McArthur State Park had the snook, jacks, and bluefish fired up.  Throwing topwaters early and late in the day is a good bet.  Don’t overlook fishing at night as a good option as well in the same area.  Snook fishing around the bridges slacked off a bit this week, but still a decent number of fish around.  Sheepshead and Black Drum are beginning to pop up in the wintertime hangouts.  Live shrimp will be the bait of choice for them.  Reports along the Hobe Sound Flats are improving, with a mixture of wintertime species beginning to take up their seasonal homes.
 
SURF/PIER- Southeast winds have really slowed the reports down for the week.  Pompano reports have not been very good this week.  A handful of pomps around, but tough fishing for the most part.  The bluefish action slowed down this week, but that could change with an upcoming change in the wind.  The bluefish that are around have been biting best late in the afternoon or at night.  Best action on the bluefish has been north of Jupiter Inlet.  The Juno Beach Pier has had some Spanish Mackerel and a few Kingfish around as well.  Best action of the mackerel will be with crappie jigs and the “bobber rig”.   A Rapala X-Rap or Yo-Zuri Longcast Hydro Minnow is a good way to go for the kings.  Best action on the kings will be first thing in the morning.  Blacktip and Spinner Sharks are around in pretty good numbers.  Best action on the sharks will come very late in the afternoon or at night.  The Juno Beach Pier also saw a handful of redfish and surprisingly a few flounder this week.

OFFSHORE-  Slower report offshore this week for the most part.  Partially due to weather, and partially due to time of year.  It's that tough transition time when summer patterns are fading out; but the sailfish haven't shown up in numbers just yet.  Best sailfish bite continue to be up to the north, with the trolling guys catching some fish up to the north of Ft. Pierce Inlet.  A handful of sailfish around locally for the live bait guys, but not seeing big numbers just yet.  A few decent cold fronts should get them pointing their noses south.  Scattered dolphin reports this week in 400-600', but defined pattern to speak of.  Dolphin fishing is honestly a bit of...luck of the draw at the moment.  Kingfish remain scattered along the 120' ledge.  Wahoo reports slowed down this week with the moon falling off in size.  Snapper fishing reports remained fairly steady along the bottom.  

INSHORE-  Lots of mullet around over the past week....mullet run isn't over just yet!  Snook remain the main species around inshore, but a few more jacks (Including some big ones) are pushing in as well.  Look for the mullet to move around the most during lowlight periods of the day and at night.  Fishing will obviously be best in the same kind of time frame.   If your into throwing lures go with hardbaits (Yo-Zuri Pencil and Darter, SP Minnow, X-Rap) over soft plastics as just enough bluefish are mixed in to make throwing soft plastics very annoying.  Other inshore action is beginning to pick up as well.  Our wintertime drum and sheepshead are starting to filter in.  Not in huge numbers just yet, but they are coming back in.  A live shrimp on a jighead is a great lure choice for them.

SURF/PIER-  Bluefish are beginning to show up in fair numbers.  Best action on them remains north of Jupiter Inlet, with a few making it down to the south as well.  Noisy topwater lures are a great choice during lowlight periods of the day, while spoons an cutbait work well when the sun is up a bit.  Spanish mackerel are scattered up and down the beach in good numbers.  Pompano action wasn't as good this week, but some are still being caught.  The sharks are around in pretty solid numbers right now.   Pretty good mixed bag action along the beach for the most part. 

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...East winds 15 to 20 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet with occasional seas to 6 feet. Period 5 seconds. Intracoastal waters choppy in exposed areas. Chance of light showers through the day. Slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

OFFSHORE-  Reports were better this week, thanks largely in part to some nicer weather.  Dolphin fishing popped off the early part of the week, with some nice size fish being caught.  300-400' of water seemed to be the ticket for most of the dolphin, though fish were caught both shallower and deeper.  A handful of wahoo were caught on the full moon here, but the best reports o the wahoo are starting to come out of the Bahamas.  Fishing right out front of West End has been very good for the wahoo over the past few days.  Scattered kingfish reports along the edge, but no big numbers.  Sailfish reports are a bit on the slim side, but a few are coming through.  Snapper reports remain strong along the bottom.  Some nice yellowtail and mutton snapper coming up, along with a handful of scattered grouper.  Sardines remain the bait of choice on the bottom.

INSHORE-  Snook fishing continues to pop off pretty good on the inshore side of things.  Fishing live mullet around seawalls and boat docks during the day, and working shadow lines around bridges at night seems to be producing the best.  The snook are still keyed in on the mullet, so take advantage of that now.  It's a good time to throw the bigger plugs, swimbaits, and jigs to get good quality bites from the snook right now.  Before long it goes to the shrimp bite...and honestly that's just not as easy as fishing the big stuff.  Still some big jacks, and the occasional tarpon or two, cruising around the ICW as well currently.  Hobe Sound Flats are starting to come to life as well with slight drops in water temps.  Not red hot up that way yet, but it is improving.  

SURF/PIER-  Pompano fishing remains very good along the beach and at the Juno Beach Pier.  Sandfleas, clams, and FishBites are the bait of choice, while Doc's Goofy Jigs are the lure of choice.  The jig bite at the pier is as good as it has been for years.  No hot colors on the jigs, so keep a few different colors on hand.  The kingfish have also been biting at the Pier over the past few days.  Early morning and later afternoon is the ticket to get those king bites.  A sardine on a trolley rig or casting a Rapala X-Rap is the way to go.  Scattering of Spanish Mackerel around, but not in huge numbers.  Been some bluefish around as well.  A loud noisy topwater or silver spoon has been working well on the blues.  Sharks are staring to show in some pretty good numbers as well.  

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...Southeast winds 5 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Period 6 seconds. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers and slight chance of thunderstorms.

SATURDAY...South winds 15 to 20 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Slight chance of thunderstorms. Chance of light showers.

SUNDAY...South southwest winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Chance of light showers.

Fishing report coming at you a day early this week.  Headed out of town this weekend; hopefully with a little NE Surf fishing story to follow close behind.  Stay tuned for that...

OFFSHORE-  Not a whole lot to write about for offshore reports again this week.  Between the less than ideal ocean conditions and the definite changing of the seasons its pretty slow offshore right now. Gonna be another tough weekend for small boaters to get offshore.   Look for the sailfish to start snapping very soon.  It's a few weeks early for the true start of sailfish season, but each time the wind blows out of the north expect more and more to sails to start pointing their noses south.  The trolling bite from Stuart to Fort Pierce is historically the first to fire off for the sailfish.  However, a lot of years a nice little push of early season sails bypasses the trollers; and the livebaiters put up some numbers off of Jupiter.  This could be the weekend for double digit releases on the sailfish.   No dolphin reports to speak of this week, but should no doubt be some floating around this weekend.  East winds should help blow them inshore a bit.  The moon is right for the wahoo to make a showing.  Snapper reports remain very good along the bottom.  Sardines remain the bait of choice on the bottom.  

INSHORE-  Snook reports remain very good inshore right now.  The snook are taking advantage of the last pods of mullet pouring through.  Bridges, seawalls, and boat docks are all great spots to start looking for the snook right now.  For the most part they want to be in a nice ambush spot and not wandering around in open water.  Best bet is to locate good ambush spots, and try to fish the tides to your advantage.  Use incoming or outgoing tide to present baits to fish naturally for best results.  Should still be some tarpon and big jacks mixed in with the snook.  Also, still a scattered redfish or two being caught inshore.  No great reports yet from the Hobe Sound Flats, but cooling water should really start to get some fish moving in that way as well.  

SURF/PIER-   Pompano reports remain very good along the beach and at the Juno Beach Fishing Pier.  Sandfleas, clams, and FishBites will be the best bait choices, while Doc's Goofy Jig reigns supreme as far as lures go.  No hot color yet to speak of on the jigs, so be sure to have a few different options to offer.  Bluefish are starting to show up along the beach as well in decent numbers.  Loud noisy topwaters (ask us for a custom "Pelican"), diamond jigs, and cut bait are all good choices for the bluefish.  A few scattered Spanish Mackerel reports, but no big numbers yet to speak of.  The spinner sharks are starting to show, and are already starting to show some interest in the topwater lures as well.  The Pier may provide the most fishing chances this weekend, as the report currently has it looking a bit rough!  

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
THURSDAY...Northeast winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 5 feet. Period 7 seconds. Intracoastal waters a light chop. Showers likely and slight chance of thunderstorms.

FRIDAY...East northeast winds 10 to 15 knots along the coast to east northeast 10 to 20 knots in the Gulf Stream. Seas 5 to 7 feet with occasional seas to 9 feet. North northeast swell 4 feet. Intracoastal waters choppy in exposed areas. Chance of showers.

SATURDAY...East northeast winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas 5 to 7 feet with occasional seas to 9 feet. Northeast swell 4 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Slight chance of showers in the morning. .

SUNDAY...East winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas 4 to 6 feet with occasional seas to 8 feet. Northeast swell 4 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop.

OFFSHORE:  Less than ideal conditions for much of the week have once again kept reports to a minimum.  Dolphin fishing remains good, with fish being caught in 200-900' of water in good numbers.  Trolling the usual dolphin baits (Strips, squid, ballyhoo, small jetheads, etc) is a good way to find the dolphin.  The dolphin are not locked on structure, so be prepared to cover some water to find them.  Sailfish are starting to show up in better numbers, and that will only improve as the north winds start to blow a little more.  Don't be surprised to hear about some boats stacking up some releases in the not too distant future.  KIngfish, and a wahoo or two, remain scattered up and down the 120' ledge from Palm Beach to Jupiter Inlet.  Snapper reports remain pretty good along the bottom,  Look for the snapper to bite best in around 90' of water, with sardines being the baits of choice.  A few cobia remain mixed in with the snapper.  

INSHORE:  The mullet remain around in good numbers, and the snook and tarpon are taking full advantage of the plentiful food source.  Look for the most action to go down early in the morning, late in the afternoon, and at night.  The snook in particular are going to feed best at night.  Look for the snook to be in ambush points waiting for the tide to move mullet to them.  Bridge fenders, shadow lines, seawalls, etc that help line up the snook are great starting spots.  Present the baits up current and let the them flow back naturally with the tide.  In addition to the snook and tarpon; jacks, ladyfish, a few redfish, and others are mixed in the inshore action as well currently.   

SURF/PIER:   Fall surf fishing is slowly setting in along the beach.  Bluefish, pompano, and sharks are all showing up in pretty good numbers.  The pompano are being caught in good numbers on the Juno Beach Pier on Doc's Goofy Jigs.  Along the beach sandfleas, clams, and Fishbites are the baits of choice for the pomps.  Bluefish are biting topwater lures, silver spoons, diamond jigs, and cut bait.  Spinner/Blacktip sharks are starting to show in good numbers as well.  Still some schools of mullet coming down with tarpon in them.  Should be a pretty good weekend along the beach, get after it! 

NOAA MARINE WEATHER:
FRIDAY...East northeast winds 5 to 10 knots. Seas around 2 feet. Period 4 seconds. Intracoastal waters a light chop.

SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...East northeast winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 6 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers and slight chance of thunderstorms.
