The fishing in South Florida in Biscayne Bay, Offshore of Miami, in Flamingo in Everglades National Park and in some areas of our freshwater canal systems has been very good for rod bending action. Some real quality fish have made it into almost every daily catch. We are making pour catches using Rapala hard plastics, Hookup Lure jig heads tipped with soft plastics, live baits fished free lined, under a Cajun Thunder float and on the bottom with an egg sinker, leader and a Mustad Ultra Point short shank hook. With the most recent cold front that just passed through South Florida our fishing should be even better! The inshore protected waters of Biscayne Bay continue to produce fine catches of Spanish mackerel, bluefish, sea trout, jack crevalles, ladyfish, snapper, grouper, an assortment of jacks, barracudas and sharks. The fish are eating live pilchards caught with the help of a Humpback cast net. We have been live bait chumming and then either fishing the live baitfish on the surface or the bottom we have been able to keep the fish biting throughout the day. At times we have been throwing Rapala hard plastics and Hookup Lure jig heads tipped with a live baitfish or soft plastic and getting plenty strikes and fish. Catching over a dozen different species of fish in a day has been easy. {%image_id=61445%}{%image_id=61444%}{%image_id=61442%}{%image_id=61441%}{%image_id=61440%}{%image_id=61439%}{%image_id=61437%} The offshore fishing has been good for kingfish, Spanish mackerel, bluefish, a few dolphin fish, sailfish, blackfin tuna, bonito, sharks and barracudas. Because of the hot inshore bite there has been little need to venture offshore. Fishing out of Flamingo in Everglades National Park was great for snook, redfish, sharks, tripletail and redfish and with the colder temperatures you can now add sheepshead, black drum, cobia, Spanish mackerel, bluefish and pompano to that list. {%image_id=61322%}{%image_id=61320%} If you enjoy freshwater fishing for largemouth bass and panfish then you can give that a shot in the canal systems of the Everglades Conservation Areas. The water levels are dropping and the fish are starting to move into many of these canals where we catch them on an assortment of Rapala hard plastics, soft plastics and imitation frogs. {%image_id=61443%} So what are you waiting for?
