Kayak Fishing Report and Forecast: August 2016
Look to run out 5-to-8 miles to find the dolphin bite. Most will be small, but there are chances for a big bull. The wahoo bite is also something not to forget about. As usual running baits on a downrigger anywhere from 60-to-80 feet below surface will give you an opportunity to land a wahoo. Aug 2nd, 2016

Trout fishing should be good at places like Bear Point, Pete Stone Creek to the south and Harbor Branch and the Torpey Road area to the north. Try using top water baits like a Zara Spook in natural colors or a Chug Bug in a bright color. Live shrimp, greenies or pilchards fished under a popping cork will be hard to beat for the trout if you can keep it from the big jacks that are roaming the flats.Jul 29th, 2016
