FISHING REPORT

 

05-21-19

Fishing along the beaches has really picked up here lately.  Very good numbers of nice sized Spanish mackerel and bluefish along the beaches and up around the Cape Lookoout Shoals.  There are still cobia to be caught along  the beach and back inside the sounds.  The king makcerel are showing up in better numbers around some of the near shore rocks and reefs.  The offshore fishing for dolphin is very good as the wahoo fishing continues to be as good as it has been in previous weeks.  The blue marlin has started showing uup in better numbers as well.  Just in time for the Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament coming in a few weeks.
