Scary, Inshore fishing

Capt. Dave Sipler
October 8, 2008
Jacksonville - Saltwater Fishing Report

The end of October of course is Halloween...But even scarier than that is what you could catch!

Everyone from the adults to of course, the kids have told me, "that's the biggest fish I've ever seen", when a giant Redbass (Redfish) pops to the surface after a hard fought battle.

It's a big weekend here in J-ville, Fla.

Not only is it all hallow's Eve weekend, but the Gator Bowl game. World's largest tailgate party.

And guess what else is perfect?

The tides, that week. They're strong because of the New moon on the 28th. But at the same time there's really no need to depart the dock at the crack of dawn...either.

It's really a time of year I love.

Not only do we have the big Fish action, but by then the St. Johns River Jetties (inlet) is ready to be my first stop in the morning.

NO - LONG - BOAT - RIDES
2 miles and we're where I want to be.

Here's a few of last fall's Whoppers:

I had a cancellation for the 31st of October, which is the day everyone usually wants, so at this time I have that Friday open, as of now.

Reasonable rates, large comfortable & safe boat for all ages, absolute top shelf tackle, live bait, and even a comfy easy chair to relax in after you go "toe to toe" with possibly the largest fish you ever seen or caught.

Jacksonville Fishing Forecast:

Start also thinking about Thanksgiving time.

In my book, it's the BEST and most sought after time to go fishing inshore in the whole area.

Cooler weather, plenty of good fish and good eats, friends, family, what could be any better?

I have some days around the holiday open. So plan ahead...so you're not scambling to get a day last minute. You have nothing to loose by planning in advance. Just give me a call to discuss your options.

Target Species:

TROUT, REDFISH, CROAKER....and more

More Fishing Reports:

 

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.
