Here on the Crystal Coast spring has sprung in the ocean. The Bonita are finally arriving along the beaches and we will chase these sushi grade speedsters casting metal, trolling spoons, and live baiting.

Here on the Crystal Coast spring has sprung in the ocean. The Bonita are finally arriving along the beaches and we will chase these sushi grade speedsters casting metal, trolling spoons, and live baiting. The Chopper Bluefish are on the shoals and smashing topwater. And some jumbo False Albacore up to 25lbs are in the mix. Seabass fishing is solid in 80 to 100ft and the vermillion snapper, triggerfish are joining them. Great time of the year and it will only get better in the coming weeks as cobia and Spanish Mackerel arrive.

Bluefish are starting to show up. Water is moving up, it's around 64-67 right now which will get more fish moving in. Never know what you're goin to catch this time of year while everyone's waiting on bonito!
