Spring is Springing!!

Inshore fishing is picking up. The sheepshead are showing in better numbers on inshore structure. Currently a lot of smaller keepers being caught the class of fish should only get better in coming weeks. Finger mullet have shown up somewhat early this year and have been the bait of choice for fishing for Redfish, and Flounder. Nearshore fishing has still been producing great days but we are starting to have those summer time days where the fish seem to have disappeared. Spanish, and Kings have been the main target. A little further nearshore we are seeing Amberjack, Barracuda, and some Cobia have been caught. For nearshore trips like this be rigged and ready to pivot if the fish are not cooperating.

We had a great Atlantic Bonito season. They may be clearing out in the next week or so so get them while you can. The Spanish Mackeral bite is really heating up. There is a variety of ways to catch these fish but by far sightcasting to schools busting is my favorite. There has been a handful of Kings caught as close as right off the beach. Large menhaden bait balls are now showing up off the beach. Any day now we will see the first Cobia being caught. Flounder are moving into our nearshore structure. I recommend circle hooks or bucktails to prevent gut hooking them. Overall fishing for 2026 is starting off to a really nice start. Few pics for attention

The Bonito bite is still going strong. Mix of Blues, and my boat caught its first Spanish of the year today. After a couple warm days i expect the Spanish bite to fire off.
