Mahi and snapper should be close to shore this weekend after the storm.

Pictured here is Cade with a beautiful yellowtail snapper caught on a trip earlier this week. This was actually a birthday catch for Cade! This weekend we should see good mahi-mahi fishing and snapper fishing as the storm pushes northward away from our area. The consistent east-southeast wind should push a lot of pelagic's closer towards the beach. The fish pictured here was caught in 70 feet of water while at anchor and using a yellowtail jig with a piece of squid. The ideal conditions would be a northern tide with a light east southeast wind. This would allow for the chum and boat to be angled in the correct direction for proper fishing for yellowtail. This is also the time of the year when the mahi come close to shore. This activity coincides with the mullet run a little closer to the beach. Last weekend and throughout the week we saw schools of ballyhoo and mullet inside of 100 feet of water being busted by mahi, kingfish and sailfish.
We are going to concentrate our efforts relatively close to shore this weekend aboard the "Lisa B".
If you are going to fish farther offshore concentrate your efforts in the 750-foot depth range. Several edges and tidelines pushed way offshore which did yelled several wahoo over the week. Most of the wahoo being caught in deep water right now or under 20 pounds.
Swordfishing was excellent all week on the backside of the full moon. Several anglers caught up to two fish per vessel and several fish is a 300-pound range or boating and weighed in.
