 July 17th, 2008 Southeast Florida Fishing Report
I hope everyone survived the 4th of July festivities with all their fingers and other body parts in tact!
Since my last report I took Tony and his daughters, Britney, Bliss, and Brigitte out for a day of fishing. First order of business was to collect some live bait. We collected up a good supply of Hardtails, and made our way offshore. As I crossed the edge, Devon already had 2 lines out and we immediately picked up a pair of Bonito. These Boneheads were small and we considered rigging them but opted for a release instead. I continued offshore as Devon ran a 6 line spread. It had been a while since the planer rod had a solid hook up but that was not the case on this day. The 50W Tiagra started running off. Several minutes later Tony landed a nice 22# Wahoo.

 INSHORE and OFFSHORE fishing reports
JULY 17, 2008
INSHORE - Not much change in fishing patterns this time of year. Fish early or late and save the middle of the day for a nap. Still, the best action is the trout, jacks and ladyfish and they all are hitting on top water baits at first light. Try Bear Point or the flats just north of Harbor Branch. I had god reports of redfish this week with some of them coming from around Jack Island area and some coming from the docks along South Indian River Drive. At both places the fish are being very picky. The best results are coming from small live crabs. The catch and release snook action has been good in the Ft. Pierce Inlet for anglers using greenie's fished on the bottom at the tide changes. The snapper were scattered over the weekend with a few here and a few there Most were caught along the channel edges on a small live shrimp -- that is if you were lucky enough to find some.

Fishing report for 7-17-08 from D. M. Navarro @ the World Class Angler in Marathon.
Tired of going out and getting burned? Not so much by the fish as the sun that is. It’s just plain hot! It makes it tough to go fishing unless you keep moving trolling. For those bottom fishing, it is tough to stay out in the sun without getting so exhausted that you don’t want to go again the next day. I have some suggestions for you.
Night fishing. It is fun, adventurous, cooler and very productive. Most of the bottom fish feed predominately at night as well. You usually find the larger fish of the species that you are targeting at night than in the daytime. The bite is usually faster and more fish will come up to the boat as well. All in all, it is the best time to bottom fish.
