Weekend Fishing Outlook (4/28-4/30/2017)

Read Now
 
OFFSHORE:  Looks like an ideal forecast for some good dolphin fishing this weekend!  Main dolphin bite has been in 160-300', and the southeast wind should help keep them pushed in that general range.  Reports of a few fish out deeper are coming in; and that is to be expected as we move into May.  The dolphin are biting smaller trolling baits well, including bonita strips and squid.  Drifting and chumming is also a good method for catching the dolphin.  Sardines and squid are good baits for the dolphin, as are live baits if you can find them(Side note...the live bait is beginning to show up in the usual spring/early summer spots).  The kingfish are starting to school up good inside of the 120' ledge from the Juno Beach Pier to Jupiter Inlet.  Live sardines is the key for the kings, and they are no doubt going to bite best late in the afternoon.  Mixed in with the kingfish has been some very nice sized blackfin tuna; which will also happily bite a live sardine.  The cobra have majority thinned out, but a few are still being picked away at.  Bottom fishing (especially for snapper) has improved with the arrival of the kingfish.  The snapper love to hang out underneath the sloppy eating kings and pick up the scraps that drift down to them!  Sardines will remain the bait of choice for the bottom fishing.

INSHORE:  Pretty good snook fishing this week, and a little more stable weather pattern should really help get the snookies moving towards the inlet.  Look for the bridges to really start getting good at night, especially the ones closer to the inlets.  Flair hawk jigs and big swimsuits are a great choice right now for the snook.. They have started to get off the shrimp diet, and will be willing to snap at the bigger baits now as they try to fatten up before they start making babies.  Outgoing tide will no doubt be best for the snook, but if the water has a little cloudiness to it the incoming tide will also produce.  The jacks (including some big ones) are still roaming the ICW; and the smaller resident tarpon are hanging out in the Loxahatchee River.  Other inshore fishing is a bit hit or miss.  

SURF/PIER:  Pompano fishing slowed a bit this week along Juno Beach/Jupiter; but was still very good up towards Jupiter Island/Hobe Sound.  Should still be more fish coming with the spring run, so don't rule out Juno yet for some good days.  The southeast wind this weekend shouldn't hurt the pompano fishing, and could help bring another push of fish up the beach.  Snook fishing remains good on the Juno Beach pier.  Fishing frozen smashed sardines on the bottom has been the key for the snook.  Still a handful of bluefish hanging around, as well as passing schools of spanish mackerel.

FRIDAY...EAST SOUTHEAST WINDS 10 TO 15 KNOTS. SEAS 2 TO 3 FEET. PERIOD 4 SECONDS. INTRACOASTAL WATERS A MODERATE CHOP.
