Juno Bait's "Weekend Fishing Outlook"

For Weekend of 6/27-6/29/25

OFFSHORE- Scattered dolphin around this week, though reports did seem to fall off a bit. No rhyme or reason on the dolphin this week, instead it's more of getting lucky and running across them. As we move later into the summer it's very common for the dolphin to spread out across a much wider area. If it's dolphin your after be prepared to run and burn some fuel. While blind trolling could produce some dolphin; it's much better to focus the search on floating debris, well formed weed lines, current rips, color changes, etc. In 200-300' of water still seeing a few blackfin tuna around; though numbers of tuna continue to fall off as well. Best action on the tuna will be early morning and late afternoon. Wahoo reports ticked up slightly in numbers over the past week. As the moon gets bigger (July 10th is next Full Moon) look for the wahoo bite to continue to improve. Kingfish remain scattered along the 120' ledge indecent numbers; you just have to get past the bonita to catch them! Strong snapper fishing this week in 90-120' of water. A nice mix of yellowtail and muttons making up most of the catch, with a few mangrove snapper thrown in as well.

INSHORE- Catch and release snook fishing remains the best bet inshore right now. A fair number of snook in the Loxahatchee right now, but a bulk of the snook have pushed towards the inlets to spawn. Bridges closer to the inlets have been holding a decent number of snook at night. Fish outgoing tide with flair hawk jigs and bigger swimbaits for a good chance at a bigger bite from a full grown snook. The snook have also been hanging around docklights. The dock light fish tend to be a bit smaller size wise; but make up for it with better numbers a lot of times. Shrimp lures (DOA, Vudu, Savage) tend to be a great choice for the snook around docklights. A decent number of jacks and the occasional tarpon will be mixed in with the snook in the lights as well. A few mangrove snapper hanging around the bridges as well, with the best bite on them coming at night. Live shrimp and small live pilchards are great bait choices for the mangrove snapper.

SURF/PIER- The surf fishing remains a bit quite overall, not uncommon for this time of year. Catch and release snook fishing has picked up a bit, and should only improve as we move into the heart of summer. The snook fishing remains good on the Juno Beach Pier. Best bite on the pier snook will be early in the morning and then again at closing time. If the snook are fired up and floating in the bait schools then a flatlined live bait is the way to go. If the snook aren't as active; try fishing the bait on the bottom under the pier. A handful of jacks still cruising the beach, along with some schools of tarpon. A handful of croaker and sand perch biting in the first trough. Small pieces of fresh shrimp is the top bait choice for them.
