Juno Pier Fishing Report: March 2018

by Randy Yent, Contributing Writer 

Grab your bait and come visit us at the Juno Beach Pier! In March, warmer temperatures are bringing plenty of pompano to the area. Catch these guys on bait like clams, sand fleas, shrimp and goofy jigs. You can also catch beautiful Spanish mackerel on lures and jigs like Gotcha lures, Flash Minnows and Clark Spoons.

Bluefish, crevalle jacks and blue runners can be caught with finger mullet, sardines, diamond jigs and spoons. As usual, croakers and whiting are best caught on shrimp.
