Lots and Lots of Crabs today and some nice size Spot and Roundhead but fishing is still better after dark. High tide tonight is 10:34pm.
Daytime fishing has generally been slow due to the heat, and the water temp being above 80 degrees. They've been getting stuff here/there off the very end on occasion during the day.
Very early morning (before daybreak- between midnight and 9am) has been decent. What time the fish have started biting has depended on the tides. They've mainly been getting nice-sized Roundhead (Whiting/Sea Mullet/Southern Kingfish), some pan-sized Spot, and a few small to pan-sized Croaker.
There have been a few small sharks out there as well; mostly Dogfish.
WE SUGGEST YOU BRING YOUR SUNSCREEN AND DRINK PLENTY OF WATER if you are coming out during the day!!
