Well it's the end of September and fishing has been outstanding. There is a variety of species still being caught offshore. Snappers, triggerfish, Mackeral, and Mahi are still actively chasing baits. Stopping to sabiki for live sardines and cigar minnows has been effective for targeting those offshore species. We can expect as the waters continue to cool down to see a slower bite as those big fish move further out. Therefore, bouncing around from spot to spot seems to be the key to pick up those big ones still lurking around.
Inshore, the mangrove snapper and sharks are still plentiful on the bridges in the bays and any structure you can find. The big bull reds are starting to push inshore and we look forward to targeting those big schools as we progress into October and November.
There is still plenty of fish to be caught so don't put up those rods yet and let's get out there for some great fall saltwater action.

False Albacore, Mahi Mahi
The Tuna Fishing was slow the past two weeks...
However the fishing for Mahi- Mahi more than made up for it... On our last trip we boated 18 Mahi's releasing several small rats. The Tuna fishing should pick up after these Hurricanes pass us buy. These storms churn up the ocean, and the Tuna go off their normal feeding cycle. Once everything settles down the Tuna will go back on the Feed !
