Starting off the 2022 season!!

Monday, May 2, 2022 - 06:32

Offshore boats had a rough start to the season, first with major dredging issues keeping anyone from getting out of the inlet, followed by minimal catches once they did get moving. Luckily we're finally seeing it pick up again with boats bringing in nice Blackfin Tuna, small Yellowfins, bailer and gaffer Dolphin, some nice Wahoo, plus Swordfish and Triggerfish catches.

Inshore boats have done incredibly well lately with big Red Drum, several Black Drum, very large Sheepshead - and a lot of them. We have also just seen Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish showing up in the last two days. And on Sunday, we saw the first Cobia catch of the season!
