OFFSHORE: Dolphin fishing was good again this week, especially north of Jupiter Inlet. The dolphin bite has been begun to move north and farther offshore as well (Some great dolphin fishing going on in the Bahamas right now). Look for the better dolphin bite to start to happen outside of 200' of water, with 300-500' be fairly consistent this week. Trolling ballyhoo, bonita strips, and squid is a good bet right now. The dolphin (especially the bigger ones) are spread out, so be prepared to cover some water while trying to find them. Pay special attention to current rips, color changes, and areas with large amounts of bait around. In a little closer, a few wahoo should be caught this weekend on the backside of the full moon. Kingfish action has been hit or miss this week. The bite has been fair early in the morning, with the afternoon king bite not being all that great this week. Live sardines remain the bait of choice for the kingfish. Bottom fishing has been a bit hit or miss with the full moon this week.
INSHORE: Snook reports are getting better by the day. The snook are moving towards the inlets (Or already in the inlets in some cases), and they are hungry. Flairhawks, swimbaits, and swimming plugs are a good way to go for the snook right now. Look for outgoing tide to be the best, especially around bridges with some deeper water and good current. Other inshore action is a bit spotty. Some jacks cruising the ICW, a few resident tarpon up the Loxahatchee River, and sheepshead around the bridges kind of round out the rest of the inshore action. SURF/PIER: Pompano action slowed this week, but a few are still being caught. Early morning bite has been best for the pomps. Don't be afraid to put the baits out in the dark right now...the pomps will feed at night on the full moon. Snook action continues to improve at the Juno Beach Pier and Jupiter Inlet. Dead sardines have been the bait of choice at the pier, while a smaller live silver mullet has been a good choice at Jupiter Inlet. Scattered schools of big jacks are cruising the beach right now, as are some tarpon for those looking for something bigger to catch. Scattered schools of spanish mackerel in and out at the pier.
