Jupiter - Saltwater Fishing Report
Cooler temps should continue through Wednesday, than next weekend will see cooler temps again. Obviously, as the temps get cooler the sails typically move south, Boynton Beach, Ft. Lauderdale, Miami for example has been having red hot action the past week. But, Jupiter always serves as a consistent ground in these months. The sailfish action has been solid still and should remain solid given the winds pushing NW to NE.
The talk though has been the Cobia bite. I haven't been able to witness it, but, the word is the second you go out the inlet just keep an eye our for a ray. The cobia have also been free-swimming but also look around structure as well. You'll have a mixed bag of keepers and shorts, be sure to only take keepers (33 Inches fork length) and only one-per-person or six-per-boat. Capt. John on the vessel, Los Cajones, put a 40lb. Cobia in the box yesterday. So have a jig ready next time your going out the inlet.
