We are getting into my favorite time of year to fish the lagoon. With every cold front the chance of pompano gets better and better. Once the water temp drops start to look for these guys on channel edges. I love trowing a D.O.A. shrimp to entice a bite.
These last few weeks we have had a few weak cold fronts which have started to push the trout and snook to deeper water. We found a good amount of trout on drop offs around the river in the 4-6' range. Try pitching a D.O.A. shrimp in Figi Chicken. I like using the 1/2 oz size to give me a little more distance when casting. Your best bet for snook is to hit the bridges as night as well as lighted docks. I like using D.O.A. swimming mullets on the bridges and tossing D.O.A. shrimp or Cal jerk baits under docks. Redfish can be found along the mangroves throughout the day. Also try looking for them on the flats midday when the sun has brought up the water temp.

My main target has been the dolphin in the Jupiter area these last few weeks. For us it is a good pedal, but it is worth the reward. Look for weeds and rips in the 100-130' range. Drift or slow troll live bait while scanning the water for fish. I like to have a D.O.A Terror Eyz or Baitbuster ready to pitch to cruising fish. Don't be surprised to pick up a sailfish in the same area, as they have been thick as well. Bottom fishing has been really good in the Jupiter/Plam Beach area. Try bouncing a dead sardine on a standard bottom rig to catch mangrove, yellowtail and mutton.
