Wow, what a beautiful weekend! Minus the high winds and high tides on Friday, the rest of the weekend was absolutely perfect.
Offshore reports of nice amounts of mahi and some scattered yellowtail.
There were a lot of tuna spotted, but they just weren’t biting.
Inshore reports nice flounder hitting the docks.
Here’s some pictures from the past week of fishing:
