INSHORE: Snook fishing remains pretty good. The bridges will continue to produce best at night, especially on an outgoing tide. Shrimp remains the bait of choice for the snook, but throwing a jig or large swim bait could also excite a strike from a lurking slob. Overall the snook are not terribly aggressive this time of year, so try and keep your presentation on the slower side for best results. The flats around JD MaCarthur State Park continue to produce mixed bag action. Some snook, trout, sheepshead, ladyfish, and jacks around the flats to keep things interesting.
SURF/PIER: The big news this week was the arrival of a good number of blacktop and spinner sharks from Jupiter to Singer Island. The sharks have been a bit spooky, so target them in lowlight conditions for best results. Large topwater plugs, large swimming plugs, or fresh cut bait is a good way to go for the sharks. Pompano fishing has been spotty. Spanish mackerel and bluefish remain scattered up and down the line.
