Rod-Man Report

Hi everyone. What a week of fishing we have had. We have had good catches of reds and good catches of spanish mackerel. Most importantly for the fishing is we have had a solid week of really nice weather. That is about to change a bit with t-storms forecast for today and tonight and a change in the wind from the south to the north. It will be interesting to see if the fishing changes…bet it does, but maybe for the good?

Now here’s my report:

Inshore: Reds have been biting Gulp SW, topwater lures like Frenzy, live menhaden and menhaden chunks. We have caught them in the waterway and the creeks. Flounder fishing is still inexplicably slow, but hopefully we blast off soon. A few trout are being caught in the river.

Near shore: The spanish bite has finally taken off with double digit catches fairly common. We had one day with a catch right at 30. King mackerel are right on the beach and eating live menhaden. Fish in the 15 to 30 pound range are being caught. A few cobia in the 50-60 pound range are being caught as well.

Offshore: The big mahi are still biting from 15 to 25 miles. King mackerel, cobia and amberjack are also being caught. The 23 mile rock and WR4 are very hot. Live menhaden, ballyhoo and cigar minnows are your best baits.

Gulfstream: The tuna bite is still very early in the morning. Mahi are plentiful and wahoo are biting down deep. Some billfish are starting to move in as well.

We will be posting lots of new pics this week on the website so please drop by and check out our photo gallery for the latest.

The weather is getting hot and so is the fishing so…..
