Late summer/early fall fishing is starting to heat up. Getting a weather window to make the trip out has been a challenge. However, when able to get offshore, we are catching a variety of species with the second half of trigger fish season open and now Amberjack opening back, I expect a lot of great offshore catches over the next few weeks. Deep drop fishing for vermillion snapper, porgies, and various grouper species has been on fire. For those who like our top water action, the waters have been boiling with skipjacks and Mahi. Now is the time to get out there and catch them up before they move out to their winter waters.

The inshore has been heating up lately! As water temperature cools off it seems like the bite has steadily picked up. Offshore has been consistently good, typically coming home with our limits of triggerfish and vermillion snapper

The red snapper bite has been steady but you have to put up some effort to find the sizes you need for the box. Trigger fish has opened and are plentiful but lots of smalls mixed in which is normal but not so bad. The mahi's are crazy good at the moment and anything you find floating in the water is full of fish including triple tails. The vermilion snapper have come off their full moon spawn and are really biting well , squid or salted northern mackerel will do the trick. Kings are good this year and still going . Amber jacks are closed so you know will catch them one after the other. There is no blue water very close here in our neck of the woods so the trolling is kind of slow.
Inshore is never great in August because of the heat but Captain Jake is catching some redfish and trout along with flounder and mangrove snapper. The Spanish mackerel are still good as long as the bait is here.

Fishing has been really hard this week, it's the last week of snapper season and the rain showers have been coming in and out messing up the water temp! Trolling is slow right now, the wahoo are biting better than the mahi from deeper in the column ! Bottom fishing is ok but using Bonita for bait is a bad idea right now because there have been a lot of Bonita caught and a lot of folks are slamming the water with it so the snapper won't touch it! Cigar minnows cut and squid strips seem to be the go to! Triggerfish are everywhere so we are looking forward to the second half or trigger season opening Monday
