OFFSHORE- Good fishing offshore this week, with a nice mixed bag of action. Dolphin fishing was pretty good this week, with most of the fish being in 200-400' of water from Palm Beach to Jupiter Inlet. Sailfish action continues to improve, with a nice body of fish stretching from Palm Beach up to past St Luice Inlet. Live goes under the kite are hard to beat for the sailfish right now. A handful of wahoo and kingfish are mixed in with the sailfish as well in 100-250' of water. Lots of bait in 100-200' of water over the past days, with a good number of big summertime size bonita in the mix. Bottom fishing reports were still pretty good this week, with a assortment of snapper and still a few grouper being caught.
INSHORE- The bluefish showed up in the ICW this week, along with a few jacks and ladyfish up in Hobe Sound. Snook fishing remains pretty good at night, just remember the season is now closed so its just catch and release for a month and a half. The Loxahatchee River sparked to life over the past few days with some snook, redfish, and jacks happily eating live shrimp around boat docks. SURF/PIER- Lots of bluefish around the past few days...and they have been hungry!!! Spoons, diamond jig, gotcha plugs, swimming lures, and cut mullet have all been solid bait choices for the bluefish. Low light periods of the day will be best for the bluefish, but for the most part they can be caught throughout the day. Spanish mackerel are also scattered up and down the beach in pretty good numbers as well. A few pompano are being caught each morning and afternoon on sand fleas and clams. No rhyme or reason to the pompano's location...just been a luck of the draw and landing on them in the right spot. Shark fishing has also been good from the beach as well. Lots of good stuff going on! NOAA MARINE WEATHER- FRIDAY...Southwest winds around 5 knots. Seas around 2 feet. Period 8 seconds. Intracoastal waters smooth.
