Newcomer to this area. Any good fishing locations out of these inlets. GPS's would help.

I do not regularly fish there areas. However, there is bait on the south side of the inlet @ boca. In haulover sometimes there is bait under the bridge or on the north jetty. If bait is not a concern you can buy it which is easier.
I have had good luck fishing north of Haulover for bottom fish, king fish and sailfish. target depth 130ft - 100.
Out of Boca Inlet head towards the steeple<church> Same target depth.
I do not have specific GPS numbers but what you can do is but a TOP SPOTs map for your area. It has many wrecks on it as well.
Good luck
I bottom fish all the time off hillsburo!

Fishing is great here!!! I catch goruper and yellowtails on the reefs all the time in 45 to 150 feet and you don't really need a gps to have a good time and release a nice kingfish. Just supply the right baits( like the live ones off boca in the article above) and dead baits of all sorts drifted on the bottom. Find drift boats and and if you don't have a fishfinder( depth) get one - you will need it!!! I like the south side of hillsburo - but the boca inlet has good kingfishing i've heard in about 200 feet. Swordfishing and sailfishing make it awsome- swords in about 1000 feet. Give it a try- Bye!
