une has produced plenty of heat and the fun in the sun will begin for the kids. Summer is closing in and lets hope the fishing will produce great action for us anglers.

The inshore fishing is producing great catches of snook, near inlets deep channels and along sea walls. Live baits like mullet, pinfish, sardines and greenies excellent live baits for linesiders. Live baits free lined or used on a knocker rig best method fro hooking up. Artificail enthusiast DOA C.A.L. 4 inch jerk bait in Alewife and Arkansas glow rigged on a 3/8 ounce jig head excellent choice bait for working the inlets and deeper channel edges. Beaches DOA C.A.L. 3 inch shad in pearl and glow holographic best colors to consistent hook ups. The snook are very active early in the morning and late afternoon and well into the night. Average size of the snook has ranged from 2 to 20 pounds. Heddon spooks worked in a walk the dog brings plenty of surface explosions, the snook are very aggressive on the flats.

Work pot holes and bait schools for best results.

Tarpon are still abundant of the icw waters near canals and bays. Live sardines and mullet drifted near channel edges and mangrove shorelines provide explosive action. DOA Bait buster in green back and pearl worked near the bottom work great as well, morning and late afternoon best time to target the tarpon. Outgoing tide provides best action as well look for rolling fish as clues to work baits.

Grass flats are holding a wide variety of fish at sunrise when waters are cool. Snook, trout, jacks, snapper, and lady fish are all present. Live shrimp, greenies and jigs under a popping cork, will get your rod bent. DOA C.A.L. 3 inch shad in pearl and glow gold rush belly on a 1/8 ounce jig head great set up for consistent hook ups.

The mangrove shorelines, docks and channel pilings have been holding nice triple tail. Live shrimp or small greenies pitched in the tripletail vicinity will get you hook up. DOA shrimp in glow or a DOA 3 inch shad in pearl or figi chix trigger strikes as well. Typical size of the triple tail has been 2 to 10 pounds.

Well that is the fishing report for the past week, hope everybody 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
