Fishing Forecast

March into spring! Warm weather and warmer water temperatures create awesome fishing conditions. Spring mullet run will also trigger great fishing for snook, tarpon, jacks, sharks, and many other species.

Jupiter and Palm Beach offer a wide variety of species to target. Methods of live baiting, fly fishing, or using artificial lures, anglers should focus their attention on seawalls, docks, grass flats, and mangrove shorelines. The key to successful fishing is locating moving water and most importantly bait fish.

The snook action will be fantastic as snook begin to trickle in from back bays and begin to settle on sand flats, under docks, next to sea walls, and near inlets. Look for any signs of bait fish and current and you will locate snook. Night fishing is another great option for anglers in search of snook. Docks and bridges are excellent areas to pinpoint schooling snook. Jigging a D.O.A. C.A.L. 3” Shad Tail or D.O.A. TerrorEyz are great bait choices for snook. Tarpon will be found occupying deep channels creating great opportunities for anglers to target rolling fish near the surface. First of incoming tide and last of outgoing tide are the best times to target the silver king. D.O.A. Bait Buster, live mullet, or greenies will leave you bowing to the silver king. These fish are known for their acrobatic leaps and drag screaming runs. The average size of the tarpon ranges from 20 to 90 pounds.

Well, that is the fishing report for the Jupiter and Palm Beach area, hope you all enjoyed. Just remember, you can’t catch them from the couch so get out there and get hooked up. Tight Lines!
