Inshore
Early angler gets the fish. Fishing early or late in the day
is still the key through September. The flats and inlets are holding large
amounts of glass minnows. Using lures to imitate these baits will be your best
bet. Fishing the inlets, docks and bridges will continue to be a great option.
Try using a DOA Terror Eyz or jerk bait bounced near the bottom around the
inlet. Fishing the shadow lines on the bridges at night with a mullet imitation
will work great. On the flats work the mangroves around high tide with a bait
that can be skipped up under the overhanging branches. These fish will be up in
there deep getting out of the heat of the day.
Offshore
September is the month for us and wahoo. Almost all the
wahoo caught in my career have been in September. Concentrate on live baiting
large goggle eyes deeper in the water column. The best time of the month will
be a few days before and after the full moon. Kingfish will still be around and
will most likely be staying in that 20lb range. Don’t forget about sailfish.
September is a great month for them. Smaller live baits like goggle eyes and
blue runners will work best on a flat line. Finally balckfin tuna will come
through in spurts. Look to target them with smaller vertical jigs and trolling
feathers.
