The last part of summer is wrapping up but the fishing is only getting better. Fall is a special time of year with unmatched fishing opportunities as the fish do many things from spawning to migrating during this time of year. The mullet run has already started and will continue through the first cold fronts of the year.
The fishing for redfish and snook can be “as good as it gets” over the next couple months. Large numbers of fish will gather and provide us with many opportunities. Many of these fish are quite large and really make for some fun fishing. Countless anglers have caught their personal best fish with me during the late summer and fall months over the years. Nearshore fishing is wrapping up with sea conditions changing from the calm days of early summer to the bumpier conditions that come with passing hurricanes and eventually cold fronts. It’s not big deal though because the inshore fishing is so good this time of year that we rarely have a need to fish elsewhere.

The summer fishing around the Ponce Inlet area has been a lot of fun with some big fish coming to the boat. As we wind up July and head into August we enter the tail end of summer and begin the slow transition into fall. The fishing patterns shift as well but only for the better as we get some of the best fishing of the year.
Nearshore fishing off of Daytona Beach and New Smyrna Beach, we are still looking for tarpon, jacks, albies and other migratory fish that pass up the coast of Florida during the summer. The Atlantic is at its calmest during the summer and fall so long as it’s absent of tropical weather. We take advantage of these conditions to target these species. Around the inlet and river areas the targets will continue to be snook, redfish, large jack crevalle and tarpon. This time of year brings the beginning of bait runs and other events that can lead to great days of fishing so I’m looking forward to this end of summer transition and the days of fun fishing to come. |
