Yellow Jack fishing has been very consistent over the past few weeks. Live bait such as pinfish or pilchards has been producing best, but anglers are also catching them on bucktail jigs and topwater lures. These hard-fighting jacks put up a great battle and are excellent table fare.
The inshore snapper bite is red hot right now. Using live or cut bait, anglers are catching plenty of legal snapper in the shallow waters.
A few cobia have started to show up, but the large numbers we’ve seen in recent years haven’t arrived just yet.

The Fishing has been amazing lately! With nonstop Cobia action in the gulf and fishing behind the shrimp boats for blackfin tuna and Bonitas as well as Fishing the Rex for mangrove, snappers, mutton, snappers and lane snappers. Lately the cobia’s have been good size. With the largest so far being 54 pounds.
