Capt. Billy Black, fishing out of Old Bahama Bay, West End, reports lots of dolphin, late season wahoo, and some yellowfin tuna. He said the dolphin migration should soon begin, blackfin tuna and skipjack tuna are showing up, and right behind them, there will be the blue marlin that feed on them. Treasure CoastJun 1st, 2015
Large grouper and snapper will await anglers this month among the wrecks and reefs in 60 to 180 feet of water. Grouper season will be in full swing, as anglers dial in gag, black, scamp, and red grouper on the naturally occurring Eight Mile Reef in depths of 11 to 180 feet.Capt. Rocky CarbiaJun 1st, 2015
Tarpon will be rolling along the beaches and inlets. Best time and places to try are the inlets at night. Cast net some mullet, free line them in the current, and wait for that big thump, count to five, set the hook and hold on.Capt. Chris SharpJun 1st, 2015
Dolphin fishing should continue to be pretty productive this month, with lots of smaller fish around grass lines and flotsam, and the occasional gaffer or two intermittently mixed in.Capt. Scott FawcettJun 1st, 2015
The inlet rocks are holding some very impressive mangrove snapper and can be caught using pilchard plugs or cut mullet on a knocker rig. Cobia are still hanging around the inshore wrecks and reefs with a lot of pressure fishing for them. Best offering is live bait or big chunk mullet or squid.Capt. John YoungJun 1st, 2015
Avid night divers know lobster are nocturnal and although spiny lobster (Panulirus argus) season is closed this time year, many divers are surprised to find out other species of lobster are still fare game. Spotted lobster (Panulirus guttatus), slipper lobster and shovel-nose lobster are unregulated and therefore have no closed season or bag limit on the east coast of Florida. Steve WoodMay 29th, 2015
Inshore will provide lots of redfish, snook and trout action on the flats. Get those top water lures cleaned up and plan an early morning to get some of that explosive action in the shallows. The redfish population this year has been outstanding and they have been growing all spring. Snook will provide plenty of action around the bridges and jetties this month.Capt. Charlie ConnerMay 29th, 2015
The grouper fishing is red hot! The snapper bite is on fire. Kingfish, wahoo and dolphin are on the prowl in the local waters offshore of Sebastian. Fishing tournament promoters can't wait for this time of year, because they know the fishing is great. Capt. Bill StewartMay 28th, 2015
Large migrating tarpon, smoker kings, hard fighting little tunny, toothy barracuda, brawling cobia, colorful dolphin, and even sailfish are possible within small boat range of the inlet. The methods I most often imply include: slow trolling live greenies and mullet, trolling large plugs, casting baits and lures to breaking and cruising fish and bottom fishing the shallow reefs.Capt. Gus BruggerMay 28th, 2015
The Big-O has been producing some very good bass and pan fish fishing. Early morning spinner baits have been very good with catches up to 30 or 40 bass in the first couple of hours has been the norm, but once the sun comes up it’s time to try a different tactic. Shiner action is very good in The Pass, Eagle Bay, and Tin House Cove. Bluegills and shell crackers are moving in and spawning around the full and new moons.Capt. Eddie PerryMay 28th, 2015
