Jupiter - Saltwater Fishing Report
The fishing has been sub-par. Last week winds hurt the fishing. This week it has been the seas and strong winds again. If you do make it out, dont be surprised if you hook up with a sail. If your going to target the sails, you definitely should be able to find some blue runners, the green roofs south of the inlet have been holding the bait well. Dolphin have been small for the most part, but debris, weedlines, and color changes have been present, you just have to put forth some effort in finding them.
Sharks have been everywhere. I was diving last week and the reefs were filled with them. There has also been plenty of spinners along the coast. If you are into sharkfishing I definitely recommend getting out there.
Jupiter Fishing Forecast:
Expect to start seeing some spring wahoo in the next month or two. Mark your calendars for full moons, the next one is April 20th.
