Our peacocks are still on fire, just got to know where to find them this time of year. Catching 30-40 per 4 hour trip on live bait. We had a guy from Tennessee on Sunday that got 37 peacocks and had the trip of his lifetime!

Let the mullet run madness begin! The swell last week pushed the first wave of mullet into the palm beaches. Only downfall has been the rain runoff which has made the water dirty.
The intercostal, beaches, and inlets are full of bait schools and the snook are there crashing and feeding on these baits. Find the bait schools and use live baits on jig heads or free-lined to get the strike. Rapala skitter walks and DOA BaitBusters are also great baits to entice the linesiders.
Tarpon! favorite beast to target, can be seen exploding on bait schools along the beaches and inside the intercostal. Both sides of the tides tarpon are chewing. Find bait schools and fish the perimeter with live baits or DOA BaitBuster for success. Smaller tarpon can be targeted along mangrove shorelines using live baits, DOA 4" jerk baits and popper flies.
The big jacks are starting to invade the intercostal, busting up mullet pods with a vengeance. Rapala skitter walks DOA PT-7 weedless top water and live baits will get the drag screaming. Schooling fish can be seen attacking bait schools making it fun to target and catch fish one after another.
Well that is the fishing report for the past week, hope you all enjoyed. Remember you can’t catch them from the couch, so get out there and get hooked up. Tight Lines!

Lake Okeechobee is a little slow right now. You've got to be on the water at daybreak- if you do, you'll still catch a couple chunks. And also keep your eye out for schooling bass in their summertime pattern. We need some freshwater in the lake, but good times nonetheless...

Lake Okeechobee is a little slow right now. You've got to be on the water at daybreak- if you do, you'll still catch a couple chunks. And also keep your eye out for schooling bass in their summertime pattern. We need some freshwater in the lake, but good times nonetheless catching them on Rattle Trap spinnerbait and a Senko Okeechobee majic. It's a good time to take your kids, wife, father, son, etc for half a day of fishing. Then get home in time in the afternoon for some football!
