Offshore:
The High Hopes ran out and returned to the docks with some Nice Mahi early this afternoon. We also had several private boats fishing today that brought in mixed catches from Mahi to a 161lb Big Eye Tuna. The GitRDone just returned flying 6 White Marlin release flags, A Brown Shark, as really nice Grouper, and several Tilefish, one was citation size at 17lbs! The Top Notch just hit the docks with some really nice Mahi, as well as a few Tunas in the mix! The Rebel came back to the dock with a nice Wahoo, being citation size at 41 pounds!

Inshore:
The WaveRunner was the first of the inshore boats to come back in, and they threw some nice Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish up on the dock! The Veteran returned from their trip with some nice Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish, and even a Sea Bass! The Instigator caught some nice Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish on their afternoon inshore trip. We also had a few private boast return to the docks with a beautiful Cobia, and some nice Flounder!
The High Hopes will be heading back out for another inshore trip, along with the WaveRunner. So be sure to keep checking back with us to get the most up to date inshore report.
Rudee Inlet:
Inside of Rudee Inlet the Flounder bite remains steady with us receiving reports of multiple keepers being caught daily. They seem to be biting best on artificial swimming baits as well as live minnows. There is also numerous Croaker and Spot biting on cut baits and live blood worms. We have also had several reports of some nice Puppy Drum hitting on cut Finger Mullet.
