Half way through the week and can’t complain about the weather we’ve been having. Another day of warm temps and sunny skies today. Our high temperature topped off at 86F. Looks like storms moving in tonight and throughout the day tomorrow. Winds are currently out of the SW at 15mph.

High surf advisory through Thursday evening making for dangerous swimming conditions. PLEASE STAY OUT OF THE WATER.

Rough surf conditions made for a slow day fishing.

Head on over to the sound where the Red Drum, Speckled Trout and Flounder are biting.

Offshore boats that went out today brought back Dolphin and Wahoo. A few Sailfish and Blue Marlin were released today.

Inshore boats are doing well with Red Drum, some Speckled Trout and plenty of Flounder!
