Rudee Inlet:

The Rudee Inlet bite has been heating up with some beautiful Speckled Trout being caught. They have been hitting best on Gulp on light jig heads.There has also been an increased Bluefish bite. They have been tearing up some top water artificial baits. Over the past few days we have weighed in several nice Speckle Trout for citations. Be sure to get in on the Speckled Trout bite while they are here, and stop in our store for all your Rudee Inlet fishing needs.

 

Inshore:

The inshore bite has been pretty slow in recent days as we have continued to have oddly cold April weather. The reports we have gathered have shown a lot of Skates being caught, with a few Blow fish and Bluefish in the mix of things. As the weather heats up, increasing the water temperatures we should start seeing some really nice catches of Spanish Mackerel, Bluefish, Flounder, and some small Sharks being caught and released. It is never to early to schedule your charter trip with any of the amazing boats on our fleet, so be sure to give us a day to lock in a date that works for you and your crew.

 

Offshore:

Though none of our fleet has been out recently due to not having a great weather window, as well as others on the fleet getting ready for a great summer of fishing and spending some time in the yard, we have had a few reports of fishing starting to heat up out at the Norfolk Canyon. There have been several reports of some nice Yellowfin Tuna being caught as well as some Mahi in the mix. The most popular action out in the canyon recently have been Mako Sharks! The bottom fish bite has remained strong with some nice Blueline Tilefish being caught, along with some huge Bluefish, a few Golden Tilefish and Black Bellied Rose fish in the mix of things. We are anxiously waiting for a great weather window and some nice water for our fleet to get back out offshore fishing. Please keep in mind you can book your next offshore adventure at any time, no time is to early so give us a call today!
