Good action with a variety of species is still my goal as of late although during our warmer spells black tips sharks are being caught off the beaches.
Pompano, trout, snapper, sheepshead, snapper and some odd species are being caught such as puffer fish, batfish and the occasional whiting and squirrel fish. Live shrimp has been working best either on a jig or on a jig beneath a float.
Jigging had also been productive including pink tube jigs and 3/8 oz. chartreuse or yellow jigs tipped with shrimp.
Both incoming and outgoing tides have been good especially at mid tide.
The black tip sharks have been on some of the near shore wrecks. The sharks are in the 50-60 lb. range and are one of my favorite sharks to catch. They’re feisty and just don’t want to give up. Cut bait is the norm using catfish or lady fish cut in half.
Give me a call or text to book your trip now.
