With the first hurricane sweeping across Florida it has started the signal for some awesome Inshore action. Even with record high water temperatures we are seeing a load of sheepshead. These guys provide stellar table faire on quick inshore runs around slack tides and rocks. That's of course after you master the tricky bites! On some days we are seeing pods of mullet starting their annual winter migration. This is great news for folks looking for lots of rod bending drag screaming action over take home fish. Tarpon from size Xtra-Small like the one pictured to over a 100 Pounds have been fought this week. on top of lots of Redfish, Snook, Jacks and many more. It is key to be ready for a challenge pulling the fish away from the sharks, as the water cools I expect them to get outta town.

Overall this June has been a great month for fishing but has presented some serious challenges with weather. Unseasonable wind, rain and lightning have put charters into a day by day scenario. But the end Is near on our crazy low pressure system, next week presents some awesome looking winds with lower chance for storms and likely subscribing to the afternoon only. Now let's talk fishin'. Our normal summer King Mackerel fishery has been hit or miss and it seems live bait is getting tougher and tougher. I do suspect when the bait returns we will have some great days with bent rods and tight lines. But until then I have been having a blast with up to 4 people bottom fishing on 6+ hour trips. Typical species coming over the rail have been Amberjacks, Gag Grouper, Red Snapper (closed to harvest) Vermillion snappers, Triggerfish, Porgies and many more. If a longer trip isn't in the cards let's hit some rod bending action and not worry about take home. Plenty of Red snappers with a lucky shot at a grouper. Otherwise nearshore shrimp boats have been creating some awesome shark fishing opportunities if you're up for a challenge!
