We have been dodging rain showers this week but the fishing has been pretty good, especially inshore.  There have been good numbers of large Spanish mackerel inside the inlet and along the beaches along with plenty of bluefish.  there are still red drum back in the marshes along wtih a few flounder.  Just off the beaches a few miles the amberjack fishing continues to be good and there are still spring king mackerel on most of the rocks and reefs in the 6 to 10 lb ranges.
