OFFSHORE: Little different looking weather forecast this weekend than the last few weeks. Reports have been a bit on the slim side over the last week due to the weather. Dolphin fishing seems to be following its typical summer pattern and is starting to move offshore as the weeks go on. Most dolphin reports seem to be coming from 500' of water or deeper these days. Blackfin Tuna are biting well in 200-400' of water during lowlight periods of the day. A small daisy chain or small trolling feather is a good choice for the blackfin. Should be a few wahoo caught this weekend on the backside of the full moon in 150-300' of water either high speeding or pulling split tail mullet down deep. Kingfish are biting along the 120' ledge on live sardines. Bottom fishing reports have been a bit on the slow side this week.
INSHORE: Catch and release snook fishing will be the main game in town this weekend on the inshore side of things. The Spillways and bridges have both been producing a good number of snook. Hogy pro paddletails and SpoolTeks have been hot lure choices for the snook, as have flair hawk style jigs. The mangrove snapper action inshore continues to improve on a weekly basis. Sandperch action has been good in the ICW using fresh cut shrimp. Large amounts of freshwater have other inshore action on the slowside. SURF/PIER: The Juno Beach Pier has been pretty hot as of late. Decent number of Kingfish have been around each morning and again late in the afternoon. Rapala X-Raps and Yo-Zuri Longcast Minnows have been good lure choices for the kingfish. Snook action continues to improve almost daily at the pier. Fair scattering of jacks and spanish mackerel around as well to keep things interesting. Still a handful of pompano reports trickling in. Sandfleas and clams remain the bait of choice for the late season pompano. Croaker, whiting, and sandperch are biting small pieces of cut shrimp good in the first trough.
