From Todd / Eric @ Juno Bait -Juno Beach


INSHORE- Snook fishing was pretty good over the past week for those really spending the time out chasing them.  The best bite continues to be at night.  Most northern Palm Beach County bridges, that have good current, are holding snook right now.  Try throwing the flair hawk, size 12 or 14 X-Rap, or DOA Baitbuster for good luck with the snook right now.  The top of the outgoing tide continues to produce the most bites from the snook.  Now is  a great time to target the snook.  They are actively feeding as they prepare to move towards the inlet to spawn.  And...with a little less than a month left in the season, get your snook for the table now!  Other inshore action remains spotty.  Scattered reports of some jacks, spotted seatrout, and mangrove snapper are trickling in.

SURF/PIER- Pompano season is winding down, but a few are still being caught along the beach.  The Juno Beach Fishing Pier has a little pompano bite early each morning, with Doc's Goofy Jigs being the lure of choice.  Croaker and whiting are biting along the beach in the first trough.  Small pieces of cut shrimp and fishbites are the bait of choice for the croaker and whiting.  The snook have made a nice showing at the pier, and a few snook are moving along the beach as well.  A live croaker or whiting is a great choice for the snook right now.  Schools of scattered big jacks and tarpon have been seen cruising the beach over the past week.

BAIT REPORT- Good numbers of sardines north of Jupiter Inlet.
                          Good numbers of Sardines south of Palm Beach Inlet
                          Juno Pier-Bait is in and out, kind of day to day still.
