on our last trip

Date: May 19, 2026

The reef fishing has been solid lately with stable weather, lighter southeast winds, and cleaner water on the Atlantic side. Yellowtail snapper are the main target right now, especially on the deeper edge of the reef in 50–90 feet. Chumming hard with live shrimp or cut ballyhoo has been producing steady action. Mangrove snapper are mixed in around patch reefs and structure.
