Mix of inshore and nearshore fishing with Craig and Vanessa.
It’s a bit windier this week with more choppy waters, more rain and a new moon. Nearshore bite was a bit slow but there were plenty of glass minnows on the beach and big bonito, jacks, sharks and mackerel mixed in. The inshore bite slowed a bit with more freshwater brought into the lagoon, however we still caught plenty of snook, trout and a few reds and some jacks. Live bait was still king but the DOA paddle tails and Rapala skitter walks were productive as well.
The weekend involves hurricane prep as we tucked the boats away safe and sound and got the house and generator ready for Milton. The influx of more rain and high winds will most likely slow the bite a bit more inshore but if the winds are out of the west the beaches will be calm and we should be able to find some action if the water stays fairly clean and the bait is around again.
