Good Morning!
Offshore:
The Mahi bite has been ridiculous around 200ft, many 50lbs fish have been caught if you can handle the seas. The Cobia are still on the bullsharks in Stuart at the sandpile.
Inshore:
The inshore Snook bite has been great almost everywhere in the IRL, Live bait, Twitch baits, and topwaters have been producing overslot fish. The Trout bite has still been great around Round Island, and there has been some Redfish around Blink creek. Bigger Snook have started showing up on the docklights at night and you can still pick up a few slots and overslots on flairhawks at the inlets.
Weather:
Synopsis: UPPER DISTURBANCES WILL TRAVEL ACROSS THE AREA INTO THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL KEEP WEATHER CONDITIONS UNSETTLED WITH SHOWER CHANCES INCREASING TO SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS INCLUDING ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. STRONG HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE EASTERN SEABOARD WILL GENERATE A LONG FETCH OF FRESH TO STRONG EAST- NORTHEAST WINDS OVER THE OPEN ATLANTIC THIS WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK…WHICH WILL PRODUCE HAZARDOUS BOATING CONDITIONS OVER THE LOCAL WATERS.
.GULF STREAM HAZARDS…NONE.
