Weekend Fishing Outlook (10/1-10/3/2021)

OFFSHORE-  Weather goes away from us a bit this weekend, but the fish will still be biting.  Expect a good little push of sailfish this weekend along the edge.  Dolphin fishing was good again this week and the east wind should help blow them in as well.  Look for both the sailfish and dolphin to bite very well in 150-250' of water.  Mixed in with the dolphin have been a decent number of Blackfin tuna, along with a handful of skipjacks as well.  Kingfish remain scattered along the 120' ledge in fair numbers.  Bottom fishing remains very good, with some very solid muttons being caught in about 100' of water.  

INSHORE-  Snook fishing remains red hot this week.  The snook are keyed in on mullet, and they continue to feed like crazy.  Best bet for the snook is to fish lowlight periods of the day or at night.  Look for moving water (Primarily outgoing tide; but certain spots will work well on incoming) to further help improve your odds with the snook. Mixed in with the snook will no doubt be a handful of tarpon, big jacks, and even the occasional redfish or two.  

SURF/PIER-  Great action along the beach and at the Juno Beach Pier this week. Early arrival of all the fall species (Jacks, Spanish Mackerel, Pompano, Ladyfish, Bluefish, and others) kept rods bent pretty much all week at the pier.  Still a fair number of snook hanging around the pier as well; but that will begin to change as more and more bluefish begin to show up.  The mullet run is still in full swing; with tarpon and blacktop sharks being the main predators with them.  Should also be a good number of jacks, and still a few snook as well with them too.  Overall a great mixed bag of action...well worth giving it a shot if the weather allows.
