The Fish Are Biting

We’ve had a great start to the weekend and the fish are biting! 

Soundside fishing continues to be awesome especially for those who are able to access nice honey holes from their boat! Lots of y’all are finding the big Drum as well as plenty of Puppy Drum. Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, and Flounder continue to be caught as well! 

The water temperatures in the ocean have stayed nice and warm, which typically leads to perfect conditions for surf fishing. Bluefish, Puppy Drum, Sea Mullet, and Pompano are the majority of what are being reeled in along the beaches. 

Pier fishing has been pretty steady the last few days, especially for those prepared with the right bait and tackle. If you’re planning on fishing the pier, you’ll likely catch Blues, Sea Mullet, Spot, Spanish, Ribbonfish and even some Pompano. 

The offshore boats have been coming back with lots of Dolphin. They are also catching a good amount of billfish as well.
