September comes to and end but the end triggered the start, of an excellent mullet run in south Florida.

The Inshore fishing is fantastic all through the Icw, do to the abundance of mullet that has migrated to our area. The Snook fishing is fantastic along sea walls, mangrove shorelines and bridges. Early morning and late afternoon is the best time for great Snook action. DOA bait busters in green back and mullet color patterns, provide anglers with explosive reaction strikes as lures are worked near bait pods. Live baits will also keep your rod bent, but the trick is to make you bait stand out form the others by using weight or altering the mullet by cutting the tail or different hook sets on the bait. The Snook have been averaging 2 to 20 pounds.

The Tarpon fishing is excellent, along mangrove shorelines and channel drop offs. The Tarpon can be located as they roll on the surface and bust bait pods with a vengeance. Top water heddon spook jr in bone or okee shad color and DOA C.A.L. 4 inch jerk bait in pearl or glow and gold rush belly excellent artificial baits for the silver king. A live mullet free lined near rolling fish will definitely get the drag screaming. The Tarpon are averaging 5 to 50 pounds.

The seawalls and docks are great areas for locating Jacks for those anglers in search of a tug a war. The Jacks are schooled up, ambushing bait schools as they migrate down shorelines. The Jacks will hammer any live bait and DOA C.A.L. 4 inch jerk bait in pearl that crosses there path. The average size of the Jacks has been 1 to 20 pounds.

Well that is the fishing report for the past week, hope you all enjoyed. Remember you cant catch them from the couch so get out there and get hooked up. Tight Lines! Capt. Craig Korczynski PhlatsInshoreFishing.com,561-644-4371
