OFFSHORE- A bit slow on reports this week, but conditions d look relatively good headed into the weekend. Sailfish bite remains fair to good depending on the day; with most boats at least seeing a few fish. No double digit release days, but getting a few release flag s flying has not been a major problem. Live baits (preferably goggle eyes) under the kites and sardines or pilchards on the flatlines is the best way to go for the sailfish. 150-225' remains a good depth to look for the sails. Mixed in with the sailfish have been a fair number of dolphin, including some good sized ones. If kite fishing isn't your thing; trolling bonita strips and squid should work for the dolphin. Bottom fishing has been fair. A mix of snapper around, along with a cobra or two for those putting the time in. Sardines remain top bait choice on the bottom.
INSHORE- A little quiet inshore this week. Snook season closes on December 15th...so just a few more days to try and bring one home. The snook have been biting best at night around the bridges, with both incoming and outgoing tide producing some bites. The tide just needs to be moving. A flair hawk jig or shrimp jig have been top choices for the snook. The pompano have been moving around on the Sailfish Flats in Stuart. A bright colored Doc's Goofy Jig is a great way to go for the pompano. Sheepshead, along with a few black drum, reports remain fair; with live shrimp remaining the bait of choice. SURF/PIER- A mid week swell, and lots of seaweed, slowed reports down a bit this week. A few scattered pompano around, with better action on the pompano coming from Hobe Sound and Stuart. Sandfleas and FishBites have been top bait choices for the pompano. The Spanish Mackerel have been around, along with a fair scattering of bluefish. Conditions have looked good at the Juno Beach Pier to see some kingfish; though have not heard any reports of any being caught. Croaker and whiting continue to bite small live shrimp and pieces of fresh shrimp well in the trough. NOAA MARINE WEATHER: FRI...E winds 5 to 10 kt. Seas 3 to 5 ft, occasionally to 6 ft.
