OFFSHORE- Reports have been a bit slim this week. Those making it offshore have found a decent number of dolphin around. 600-800' of water seems to be a pretty good range for the dolphin. Trolling small ballyhoo, bonita strips, and squid has been the best bet for the dolphin. Wahoo action slowed way down; but still a handful of them around. Kingfish action came to a grinding halt early in the week. Not a lot to write about this week; hoping things change headed into the weekend. A big swell this weekend will hopefully get things moving enough to fire the fish up a bit. INSHORE- Catch and release snook fishing remains pretty good inshore. The snook are still in and around the inlets in good numbers; but have also started to put back into the ICW and River in a little better numbers. The mullet run hasn't started yet, but a few early arriving mullet have caught the snook's attention. At night the snook have been around the bridges in decent numbers. Outgoing tide tends to produce the best results on the snook, but if the incoming tide is cloudy they will bite on that tide as well. Mangrove snapper have been biting a little bit at night. SURF/PIER- Fishing from surf has been pretty much a wash this week, with a large swell and dirty water making things tough on the beach. The Juno Beach Pier snook bite has been fair this week. With dirty water and a swell the snook have been willing to bite swimbaits and jigs a little better; with that bite likely continuing into the weekend. The bait has thinned out with the swell, but conditions do look right for some early season mullet to start showing up. A few tarpon have been mixed in with the snook at the pier, another good indicator that the mullet are likely not too far away. No snapper bite yet at the Pier with the hurricane swell, but that hopefully will change headed into the weekend. NOAA MARINE WEATHER: FRI...W winds 5 to 10 kt, becoming SW in the afternoon.
