Offshore:
The Capt. Cheryl and the Top Notch left bright and early to spend a beautiful October day offshore! Be sure to check back this afternoon to see how they did. A private boat that just came here to fish for a few days just came back in with some nice Wahoo, a whole cart full of Black Sea Bass, and some Trigger Fish. The Capt. Cheryl just returned with a White Marlin release, some Trigger Fish, and a cooler full of Black Sea Bass. The Top Notch returned to the docks this evening with a nice catch of Yellowfin Tuna.
Inshore:
Inshore we have had some reports of Bluefish being caught that are of decent size and in some fairly good numbers.
Rudee Inlet:
The main bite inside the inlet has been Spot with a few Puppy Drum and Speckled Trout Mixed in. The best baits to use right now are Fishbites, Gulp with a light jighead, shrimp, and cut bait. Also, the bloodworms have been working especially well on the Spot.
