OFFSHORE- Poor weather kept the boats at the dock all week. In fact, the entire field of the Buccaneer Cup Sailfish Tournament took a layday on Thursday as a cold front pushed through, hoping conditions would be more ideal Friday and Saturday. It does look like we could see a nice sailfish bite over the next couple days. With some of the tournament field trolling and others livebaiting; we should have a good idea where the fish are over the next few days. Should be fairly standard sailfish action beyond that with 150-250' of water being a good starting spot, live goggle eyes and blue runners being the top bait choices under the kite. Before the weather turned, the kingfish were scattered up and down the 120' ledge. No big schools of kings; but the ones around have been pretty big.
INSHORE- The pompano bite slowed in the Loxahatchee River, but a few stragglers are still hanging around. Snook season opens back up next weekend. Snook reports have been a bit slow, but that will no doubt change as more people start fishing for them. The flats in Hobe Sound have had a fair number of fish around. Live shrimp remains a solid choice for catching a little bit of everything. Some good reports of Sheepshead and Black Drum coming out of Stuart. Mixed reports around Munyan Island, with most of the better action coming inside of JDM State Park. SURF/PIER- Tough conditions overall this week, but still been a few fish around. Blacktip/Spinner Shark reports seem to be slowly improving; and shouldn't be too long before we see a LOT of them around. Bluefish have been being caught off the Juno Beach Pier, along with a fair number of jacks. Palm Beach Inlet has also been holding a good number of jacks. Pompano reports are a bit slow, with the better ones seeming to come north of Jupiter Inlet.
