The Rock on Report
Middle Bay Fishing.
Rockfish breaking with BIRDS.
Bluefish ..mixed in with the rockfish in the bird shows.
Mackerel ..they are gone as far as we can tell..
Stripers AKA “Rockfishâ€
They are on bunker and glass minnows. LOTS of bait in the bay currently and some good bird activity in the PM. We have not had much in the way of braking fish on our morning trips. Still have fish shallow on structure and also 20 feet plus on structure …Top water is good very early and last light.
Perch
Still here and some good ones hitting 4’ paddle tails in shallow water.
Spot
So BIG ones are still here and if you are live lining, the “rockfish candy†ones are also being caught. Water temps are coming down and they are moving back shallow.
BLUEFISH are mixed in with the rockfish in the deeper water. G-EYE jig RAIN MINNOW 1oz PINK and Silver Sparkle working great. We are also using Z-Man 4’ diesel minnows and catching both rock and blues under birds.
Speckled Trout. None this week but paddle tails work the best.
Cobia and Redfish
Some REDs are still around. LJ from G-EYE jigs says “Just small WOLF PACKS†here and there. We marked them yesterday but could not get them to bite. Have not seen any cobia in a few weeks.
We do have some dates open and are going to start doing some walk-on trips.
IT IS THE BEST TIME OF YEAR FOR STRIPERS
If you are interested in a walk on trip PLEASE e-mail, call or text ASAP.
If you love to fly fish or just want to get into it… We have a few spots open for our Sunday 10/22 FLY SCHOOL USA CLINIC.

IT IS THE BEST TIME OF YEAR TO BE ON THE WATER…COOL TEMPS AND LOTS OF HUNGRY FISH!!!
