Welcome to all those who are joining us for this 4th of July week here on the island! It was a beautiful day here today. We had a high temperature of 82F this afternoon.

FREINDLY REMINDER – Please remember this is a National Park and ALL fireworks are illegal to set off. Enjoy your 4th celebration with friends and family but leave the fireworks to the professionals on the Avon Pier tomorrow evening.

Fishing all around was non-existent yesterday. Nothing to report.

Today was a bit better with some reports of Croaker and Sea Mullet up in Avon.

Speckled Trout are still being caught in the sound. Wade out knee deep or head out on your kayak for best results.

The offshore boats finally made it out and the fish were there. Lots of Dolphin of all sizes.

Sea Creature and Release both released a Blue Marlin today.

First of July already and it was a hot one. Today’s high temperature hit 84F but out in the sun, it felt a bit warmer than that. Winds have picked up and are out of the SW at 25mph. Thunderstorms with the potential for heavy rain throughout the day tomorrow.

Fishing all around was not good today here on the southern beaches.

Saw some Pompano and Sea Mullet caught up North of the point earlier today before the winds stirred up.

No offshore report for today.

Inshore boats that went out were on the Drum and Speckled Trout once again.

Hot and humid conditions today. Good day for swimming in a pool or hanging out in the ac. We had a high temperature of 86F this afternoon. Winds right now are out of the SW at 19mph. Looks like more of the same conditions tomorrow with a slight chance of rain in the am.

Word from the surf has been non-existent. Choppy waters combined with the heat have slowed things down a bit.

There are reports of some Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish but you had to be out there in the early am to get them.

Offshore was the same, slow and scrappy. Most boats went bottom fishing and had good results there. There were some Dolphin and Wahoo brought back as well.

Tuna Duck released a Sailfish.

Inshore is still good with Speckled Trout and Red Drum.
