Jacksonville - Saltwater Fishing Report
10/23 - OCTOBER, warm but FISHEY!
I make it really easy for people to see what's going on because a picture says a thousand words....
Recent Catch pages 1 thru 8 are filled with what's been going on along the banks of the St. Johns River and out at the inlet near Jacksonville, Florida. Actually, along the coast in the village of Mayport. 2.5 miles from Lake Atlantic.
Inshore fishing the St. Johns River, and estuaries around Jacksonville, Florida provides year round opportunities for Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Black Drum, and Sheepshead to name just a few. Plus, seasonal favorites such as Shark, Tripletail and Pompano.
The legendary Mayport Jetties are mile long piles of huge granite boulders that protect the inlet to the St. Johns River from the Atlantic Ocean. Around these jetties is some of the best and most consistent fishing.
