INSHORE- Catch and release snook fishing remains the main game in town right now. Lots of snook in the inlet and in the Loxahatchee River. The coming full moon will have the snook ready to spawn, so look for them to bite really good this weekend ahead of the moon. Topwater bite on the snook in the river has been great first thing in the morning, especially on moving water. Snook bite has also been good at night around the bridges. A few tarpon and jacks will no doubt be mixed in with the snook. Mangrove snapper have been biting well inshore. The mangroves will typically bite best at night on moving water. Small live pilchards or small chunks of sardines are a great bait choice for the mangroves.
SURF/PIER- Seaweed, slime grass, and silty water has made the surf fishing slow this week. If you get lucky and find a clean section of water/beach the snook are definitely around and biting. The Juno Beach Pier is dealing with the same conditions but fishing remains a bit better overall than the surf. Catch and release snook fishing remains the main game in town. Live croakers and sand perch are great baits for the big bites. Pilchards and sardines on the flatline will work good when the snook are up on top feeding. A good number of bonita and a few kingfish cruising through. A GT Ice Cream or diamond jig is a solid choice for both. A few Spanish Mackerel and blue runners around.
