Fishing Reports, Latest Detailed Saltwater Fishing Reports

Fishing reports for saltwater anglers submitted by sportsmen that know their fishing. We receive detailed saltwater and freshwater fishing reports from average anglers, charter boat Captains, and experienced fishing guides. We pass these reports on to you as soon as we receive them so you can rest assured that your fishing infirmation is up-to-date and current. We know a fishing report of what an angler caught yesterday may not help you catch the same species of fish today because fish move, the bite changes, and water conditions can change dramatically. But a good detailed fishing report can give you a general idea of where the fish are biting and what lures or tackle they might be hitting.

We currently receive reports and forecasts for most saltwater cities that would include well known localities or "fishing holes" that you here about all the time. We receive Chesapeake Bay fishing reports for Maryland and Virginia, North Carolina fishing reports in the Outer Banks which includes Cape Hatteras Island, Ocracoke, Atlantic and Topsail Beach NC and that's just a small sample as we have reports from Florida's Fort Pierce to Alask'a Kenai Peninsula. So check back daily for your regions up-to-date report and remember if your region isn't posted please post your own fishing report for your home town.

The most recent saltwater fishing reports are shown first. These are the latest fishing reports for the all categories list. We carry deep sea and saltwater sport fishing reports for all inshore and offshore coastal regions. If you do not see a report for your region it just means we don't have any reporters for that area which also means you would be the first so please feel free to post a report for your fishing region.
Please Enjoy our Fishing Reports!

November is the beginning of our high season here in Quepos, we have already seen the promising reports from our boats on the fishing season. The boats are ready to go out and fulfill what anglers here in Quepos seek, the catch of a lifetime. Clients Greg Hiser and some colleagues fished and caught 2 Dorado the early part of November and headed out again 2 days later towards Los Suenos where the bite has been real nice this past week where they ended up with a couple of sails and a few more dorado

Joe Reid fished on Wednesday the 11th a bit further North and had a stellar day with a 350 lb. Blue Marlin, 3 Sailfish, 3 Dorado and 8 40 lb. Yellow fin Tuna, following Henry Cannon who fished on the 10th of November and finished his day with a Marlin, 3 Sailfish and 3 Dorado. The husband and wife team had a nice workout.

Fishing Report:   Enter a desMidweek update....11 pound bonefish on fly
Capt. Chris Asaro

Oahu - Saltwater Fishing Report

This morning, i awoke to rain and winds. Not exactly ideal conditions for a guide's day of fun fishing but just being out there with Capt. Terry Duffield [aka Coach Duff] is a blast and we rarely get to enjoy sharing a day on the water. We went to one of his favorite goliath bonefish flats that he has been gracious enough to show me. Coach only fishes for trophy size bonefish with his own hand-tied flies. So we set out with a 15 + lb. fish in our sights. Hey, if you're gonna go for a slob you may as well go all the way. With Oahu having some of the Hawaiian Islands nicest flats and Hawaii being one of the furthest north latitudes in the pacific bonefish will go, seeing world record size fish is not uncommon! Coming from the Islamorda area, i have seen my fair share of monster bonefish but not nearly as common as Oahu!

Anyway, away we go with visions of grandeur into the not so friendly conditions. Immediately, we start to see very large tails. Coach said the tide was perfect for this spot and he was very right as usual. The tide was getting lower and lower but the fish kept tailing ang finning. Coach decided to jump over and go after them on foot. Fish were literally everywhere and after spooking the first couple shots, Coach had a decent size bone tail up on his perfectly presented 1/0 'Duffer Crab'. He

Fishing Report:   Sanibel Island Fishing

Perfect weather for fishing around Sanibel Island.

The New Moon in November, and great weather conditions, have the Snook, Redfish, and Trout feeding.
This is that time of year when you can go out fishing and its not too hot, and not too cold.
Low tides have the redfish looking for crabs in our beautiful grass flats.
Strong incoming water is the key to get these fish tailing and moving around the flats for food.
As the water gets higher and following the tide up on the flats, marble bottoms with sunshine are great spots for Snook, and Trout, waiting in ambush for their next meal.
Sandbars near the passes hold all kinds of bait.
Bluefish and Mackerel are on the attack all around these pods of bait.
Reports from offshore say the fishing is great also.

Happy Thanksgiving and See Ya on the water!

Fishing Report:   Nov 1
Today we had Renee and her husband Travis from Tampa Florida out for a few hours of deep sea fishing with us.
Now let me give you a little back ground on Renee and Travis. They have their own boat and do a lot of fishing themselves when Travis is in town. Travis spends most of his time fighting for our freedom in the Middle East but as I understand it whenever he’s in town and the weather permits it they are out on their own boat.
They just so happen to be in town for the Fort Lauderdale international boat show and had a morning open and that’s where I came into the picture.
As luck would have it Travis had his heart set on catching one fish. (A Wahoo) as it turns out he had lost a big one right next to his boat and now that’s what he has his heart set on Now there has been a few around lately so we spent some time trolling a bit faster than we usually do on the reef. But after a good hour of trolling without a bite we all decided to go off shore and see if we could find a few dolphin fish and who knows maybe a Wahoo.
As soon as we started heading off shore Renee who was sitting up on the fly bridge with me pointed out something in the water chasseing some flying fish. Sure enough it was a nice dolphin fish.
Well son of a gun it’s not often that a customer finds the fish before me. So I knew I was going to have to be on my game today.
After an hour and a half more of trolling without a bite I yelled down to the cock

Fishing Report:   The captains of the Beach Haven Charter Fishing Association are hopeful the fishing will be as hot after last week’s severe nor’easter as it was before it struck.
Captain Fran Verdi of the “Drop Off” fished the day before it hit and began the day with two keepers on the incoming tide on the north bar of Little Egg Inlet. When the white water disappeared, and Captain Fran pulled anchor to look for more white water.
He reports that spot was constant action despite the rolling white water and crashing waves. At the day’s end the crew had seven fish 34-39 inches. He is continuing to fish Wednesday to Monday with mostly open boat fishing.
Captain Carl Sheppard of the “Star Fish” out of Beach Haven says he wanted to fish last Saturday, but it was just too rough. He adds that his action on Sunday helped to make up for missing Saturday.
He started by trying to fish a rip in the bay, but had to stop due to muddy water and an excess of sea weed. He made the decision to brave a few swells in the inlet and see what the ocean had to offer.
The move was a good one as he located a flock of gannets working over an area in 35-feet of water. What he found was a school of striped bass with no bluefish mixed in. He managed to jig up 22 bass with most of them keeper sized. He even tried trolling a diamond jig on his way back to port and even picked up a bass this way.
Captain Frank Camarda and the “Miss Beach Haven” fished Monday taking good

Fishing Report:   The weather made for some tough conditions over the past week. High winds, rain and cloud cover made sight fishing for bonefish very difficult. We had all of that. The bonefish seem to love the adverse conditions. Monster tails were spotted on the proper tides but connecting was another story. With this, i can't stress more the importance of praticing in windy conditions.
The fish are far less spooking and casts aren't nearly as long. It can be very frustrating if you are not prepared for gusty, in your face, wind. I actually look forward to wind if i am out fun fishing. Slick calm days can be nearly impossible when you are stalking double digit bonefish. They need to eat the fly or jig on the first movement or will figure it out very quickly that it's not real.

If you have traveled to islands for bonefish, trade winds are a normal part of most days. Add in a high pressure system or front and you have what many think of as an unfishable scenerio. Seasoned anglers have learned to make the most of whatever mother nature deals out
knowing some of there best catches have been on less than prefect outings. I like to use the batting donut idea when practicing. Basically that means find a larger and heavier than normal fly and cut off the hook. With a jig you do the opposite. Try punching it directly into the wind. It will not go far but you will be able to get it out with some practice. Low side arm type casts work the best. Try to work on line

Fishing Report:   The inshore action on the coast of Georgia is really heating up with the temps cooling down. Speckeled Sea Trout, Redfish, Flounder and Striped Bass are feeding agressively on live shrimp, mud minnows and artifical bait such as gulp, DOA shrimp or lead head jigs 1/4 oz with soft plastics. On a recent trip my clients limited out on trout in about 2 hours. Mr Harrold told me he reeley liked the limits in GA. He and his son caught over 40 trout (kept 30) 9 reds and a couple nice flounder. One of the trout measured 23.5"! Fall fishin is here and it's on fire!!

Fishing Report:   Saturday was a welcomed relief. We have had some incredibly intense winds for the past week or so. The winds had finally begun to lay back towards the end of last week. Roberto Lopez, a local from the SW Kendall area, wanted to treat his son, Roberto Lopez, to a fishing trip for his excellent academic scores. Little Roberto is 14 and a freshman at Coral Reef High School. The weather looked good so we booked the date.

We all met at the dock a little early and the two Roberto’s hung back while Devon and I loaded and prepped the boat. Everything ready, we told the double R’s to come aboard. Devon directed them to the dry storage for their personal bags and the iced cooler for their food and drinks. The Suzuki’s were purring as I guided the big “Cat” out of the slip. I discussed the normal routine and possible expectations for the day as we idled, like a herd of turtles, down the manatee zoned channel.

I throttled up on the 600 ponies and The BEAST let out a growl as we came up on plane. At cruise speed she went back to purring and I pointed her toward one of our favorite Hardtail spots. We stopped there and picked up a dozen or so baits before we headed out for some Ballyhoo. You can never have too much bait and it’s not a bad thing to have different types as well. Once again I ponied up and headed for the ‘hoo patches. Arriving there about 15 minutes later, Devon set out the chum bag and cut some bait. The Bally’s were slow in

Fishing Report:   Hernando Beach Gulf Grouper Deep Sea Fishing Report
Unbelievable Gag grouper fishing west of Hernando Beach Florida. We are having a great time catching Gag grouper this fall. So many keeper size grouper being caught we have to stop at our limit and move on to other types of fishing. Most of the common areas like the Tanks, Richardson Reef, Martins Reef, and the Concrete Ruble are holding a lot of Gag grouper. Be prepared to use a lot of bait. There are still thousands of short Red and Gag grouper in the area eating us up. It is not uncommon to catch over a hundred short grouper in a day and use fifty pounds of Threadfin Herring. The only way to use less bait is to use cut up Grunts and Mullet. Other fish that are around in great quantities are Spanish Mackerel, Kingfish, Bonita's, Amberjack, and Red Snapper. The Snapper and Amberjacks are released since the season is now closed. However they are a lot of fun to catch and release since they provide non-stop action due to their immense population. The Kingfish are here now and are scatted in all depths of water. The closest Kingfish we caught lately was in 20 feet of water. It hit knocker rig on the way up when an angler was checking his bait. To his surprise he had to hook the fish in the eye with his circle hook and was able to land the large King with a mono leader. He was reminded by his fishing buddies to buy some lottery tickets after this great catch since luck was truly on his side that day.
