The full moon is passing and the summer time pattern is starting. We are still lucky to have the lower water temperatures in the area still but the bite has been early morning up until around 11am and then again in the afternoon close to sunset. In most areas along Central Florida’s coast, we have been dealing with stronger current, but 4 and 5oz weights have been holding.

The main catch this week has been larger whiting, flounder, jacks and the occasional pompano. We are hearing that the pompano bite has been really good up north around the Jacksonville area, though. The main baits of choice have been, salted and fresh clams, live sand fleas if you able to find them, and all colors and flavors of fish bites.
