Jupiter & Palm Beach Offshore Saltwater Fishing Report

The kingfish and sailfish have been caught together in the same areas, 70 feet to 120 feet, and out to 200 for the sailfish. The best bites occurring early and late in the day. Dolphin and wahoo have been scattered offshore. A consistent depth has been 300 feet. Trolling for them has produced and provided action during the midday slow down for those bent on sailfish. We’ve fished from the Lake Worth pier all the way up to the Jupiter loran tower, and had action in spurts all the way up. Look for fishy conditions and work it thoroughly. Baitfish have been tough to find, but blue runners have been numerous outside the jettys at both inlets. Trolling a small white feather or bucktail jig works or use the larger sabiki and slow troll around the mouth of the inlets. Spanish mackerel are still thick up at Peck's Lake. If just bending a rod and eating good works for you, this just about a sure thing. Spinner sharks should start to move inshore and provide excellent sport as an alternative to sailfish. They will jump and tear off line from your reel with the best of them.
