Jacksonville - Saltwater Fishing Report
Inshore/nearshore report NE Florida
I'm seeing more tarpon around the Mayport jetties, which is encouraging. The pogies are scattered, but you can catch "greenies" on bait rigs at the jetty tips. I'm getting reports of plenty of shark action behind the shrimp boats and kingfish on the nearshore reefs. The jetty reds will hit mud minnows, greenies, and live shrimp on jig heads.
There has been a bit of a flounder run recently around the rocks and docks of the river. Speckled trout, jacks, ladyfish, and even the occasional snook are being caught in the ICW and river. Redfish and other saltwater species are being caught far up the river near Green Cove Springs, which is unusual.
Recently, I've been busy outfitting my new boat, a 21' Polar/Dynasty bayboat, which should be ready in a couple of days. It will be a little roomier on those four person charters!
Good fishing!
