Fishing Report for 3/25/10, 3/26/10, 3/27/10

Thursday (3/25/10)
We spent most of the afternoon and early evening fishing at the Boynton Beach Inlet. The tide was just starting to go back out and the fishing was alright. There were a few blowfish, undersized mutton snapper caught, and even a starfish caught. The fish were caught on either frozen or live shrimp.

Friday (3/26/10)
For the first day of spring break we enjoyed a day at the beach trying to land a shark. We were using blue runners and jacks for bait, but sadly didn't even get a nibble. Even though there were no fish caught, there was lots of fun been had swimming and kayaking while we waited and hoped.

Saturday (3/27/10)
Saturday fishing club started off as usual with a class, and then we fished the Boynton Beach boat ramp for the next few hours. The fishing was slow to start off with due to the low tide, and then towards the end we started catching a few big blowfish. I hope to see more anglers next Saturday for some fishing and relaxation.

Captains Update 25 March 2010

The fishing is slowly picking up now that things are beginning to warm up finally. Offshore there have been a few kingfish being caught along with some small dolphin. A nice 27lb wahoo was also caught yesterday just off the Boynton Beach Inlet.
Along the beach the sharks have slowly begun to move off. The are not as plentiful as they were last week, but there are a few still hanging around. Using fish carcasses for bait will help you tangle with one of these toothy fighters. If you can please use circle hooks and release once you have your photo.
In the intra-coastal the fishing has really begun to pick up, now that things are beginning to warm up. There have been plenty of snapper and grunts caught around the Boynton Beach Boat Ramp during the day, especially during incoming and high tide. The night-time snook bite has been going strong the last 2 weeks around bridges and docks, but please remember snook season is still closed.
