OFFSHORE- Still a decent pick on the dolphin this week; and SE winds throughout the weekend should keep them biting pretty good. Best depth on the dolphin has bounced around this week, with reports coming in from 200-1000' of water. Trolling small ballyhoo, squid, and bonita strips remains a solid choice for the dolphin. Look for the dolphin to be relating best to defined weed lines, floating debris, or defined rips or current edges. Blackfin tuna bite has slowed quite a bit, but still a few being picked away at in 200-300' of water. Live baits suspended 50-100' below the surface will be the best bet for the tuna. Was fully expecting some good wahoo reports this week; but overall the wahoo fishing ended up very slow. Hopefully the wahoo bite fires up headed into he weekend. Kingfish bite along the 120' ledge has been a it hit or miss; with cold water still being an issue, and the kings moving around a decent amount. Snapper fishing has been good this week. Pretty solid pick on the yellowtail snapper in 80-90' of water, and a decent number of muttons mixed in as well. INSHORE- Catch and release snook fishing has been fair this week inshore. The snook have largely started to push towards the inlets. Best bite on the snook has been at night around docklights and bridges closer to the inlets. Look for outgoing tide to produce the most action on the snook. Other inshore action has been a bit slow. A few scattered jacks cruising seawalls with a few tarpon mixed in as well. Mangrove snapper continue to show up a bit better inshore. Live shrimp and small pilchards will be the best bait choice for the snapper. SURF/PIER- A little slower this week along the beach and at the pier. Cooler water on the beach has the catch and release snook fishing slowed down just a bit. The snook are still biting, just takes a little more work to get the bites. Along the beach small pilchard imitating lures (Small swimming plugs, twitch baits, and small jigs) fished in the first trough parallel to the beach will be a great way to target the snook, especially during lowlight periods of the day. Live croakers and sand perch are top bait choices for the snook. The snook have been biting at the Juno Bech Pier best first thing in the morning and then again late in the afternoon. The Juno Beach Pier has also been producing a few bonita and the occasional kingfish. Croaker and whiting bite has been very slow this week in the first trough.

Thanks For Reading, Todd Sorry for the lack of fishing report last week; I was in Louisiana trying to find some tournament winning redfish. Managed to pick out a few good ones, just couldn't find the right right ones.  Comments are closed.
