    Great time!

    4 Hour INSHORE Fishing Trip - 1:00 PM • 2 adults

    The day our trip was originally scheduled turned out to have a small craft warning issued. Yikes! Captain CJ left us know the day before we would not be going out. Fortunately, we were able to reschedule and the weather was great. We didn't catch a ton of fish, mostly due to my inability to set the hook in time. CJ did put us on a school of Blues and the catching went wild. Those crazy fish hooked themselves. we also caught some small snapper fish. Overall, it was an exciting experience. Captain CJ is a personable and very capable guide and boat handler. He certainly knows where the fish are likely to be and how to spot them. This was my first inshore trip. The good Lord willing it won't be ny last. Thanks to CJ for a memorable experience!

    Reported catch:
    Mangrove Snapper

    rain

    4 Hour – Inshore Fishing Trip • 3 adults

    CJ was prompt and kept me informed. He had good equipment and was knowledgeable about the area and what was happening. Unfortunately, the weather turned on us with wind and rain and we had to cut the trip short. CJ was very helpful in working with Fishingbooker to get us a partial refund. I would use CJ again.

    Response from Captain

    Thank you Art, I’m sorry the weather didn’t hold up for us this time.

    If near shore fishing gets any better, we’ll need to get a bigger ice box! Now is the best time of year for fishing. Book your trip before the bite cools down!

    After a few weeks of tough fishing, the switch has been flipped and we are officially into spring fishing mode, the best time of the year for inshore fishing! Large Snook and Trout are abundant, with the chance of catching a Tarpon as well, but it still may be a few weeks before they are caught in abundant numbers. If you want to experience inshore fishing at its peak, now is the time to book your trip!

    The inshore fishing is really starting to heat up. We’ve seen a major increase in snook activity this week, along with many other fish mixed in. Today we chased a school of giants jacks, and were fortunate enough to land one on light tackle. We also caught another 20+ mixed bag of fish including Snapper, Margate, and more.

    The snook bite had been pretty slow the past month since the historic freeze, but today we saw signs of life with a healthy 26 inch snook, along with another smaller one. Its getting close to the time of year where they really come to life. If you want to get in on the actuon, book your trip before the schedule fills up, March is a busy month for charter guides!

    Sheepshead
    The sheepshead bite was slowing down in the last week or two as water temps rose, but as expected, the recent cold front fired them right back up! Water temps were back down in the 60’s, and like clockwork, these tasty fish were ending up back in our cooler. Book your trip while the bite is still hot!

    Black Drum
    The past week has been relatively slow inshore. But today it picked up with a mixed bag of Black Drum, Spanish Mackerel, Mangrove and Mutton Snapper, Jacks, and more. When it’s calm enough, we might even sneek outside the jetties to pursue spanish mackerel. Inshore fishing in this area isnt known for filling the cooler with edible fish, and many inshore captains wont even entertain the idea. But here at 1 Fathom Sportfishing, I am always up to the challenge of sending people home with bags of meat. Today we did so successfully.

    After a historic freeze here on the treasure coast, the snook bite has been nothing but abysmal. But today, we saw our first signs of life as water temps get back to normal. I expect snook activity to continue to pick up in the next week!
