Provided by Hubbard's Marina- Hog fish action is still going on near shore. However, it is definitely dwindled down from where is was in the cool months. We're seeing most of the hog fish action on our 10 hour all days and private charters. However were not seeing the same concentration we want. You still have a chance for them but we're only catching a few here and there. Mostly on lighter tackle live shrimp fishing around the 40 to about 80 foot of water. Lane snapper action is going well. Were seeing a lot of those lane snapper nearshore around 50 to 100 foot of water. Lane snapper love live shrimp but will bite small chunks of threadfin and even squid. Mangrove snapper action is also going well near shore were seeing some pretty large mangrove snapper around 70 to 100 foot of water. Most of our mangrove snapper are coming on live shrimp or chunks of threadfin. Typically around 30 pound fluro-carbon is a good idea when targeting mangrove snapper nearshore. Were not really seeing many mackerel around right now. The mackerel bite has dwindled down quite a bit, but you still have a chance for them near shore. King fish action is pretty much gone around our near shore waters. We did start to see that summertime pattern of the random mahi-mahi showing up near shore. On a recent private fishing charter aboard the hub we had quite a few mahi-mahi show up around 50 to 70 foot of water while bottom fishing.
