We’re rolling into the summer solstice weekend, and the bite is living up to the hype, from sunrise to sunset. According to the Gulf of Mexico, Florida Daily Fishing Report podcast, this June has delivered prime conditions with fish actively feeding pretty much all day long.
The sun came up at 6:34 AM and you can expect it to set tonight at 8:21 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to get after it. Over at Shell Point, the morning low tide rolled in at 1:00 AM, with a high tide set for 5:02 PM this evening. Tidal coefficients are sitting around 60 this morning, dropping to the mid-50s by mid-afternoon—nothing wild, but enough tidal movement to trigger good feeding windows, especially close to that evening peak.
Weather-wise, we’re looking at classic Gulf summer conditions. Expect muggy air, plenty of sun, and a light onshore breeze—perfect for early birds or heading out toward dusk. These steady temps keep inshore water warm and the fish fired up.
Let’s talk fish activity. In the past few days, anglers have been loading up on pompano along the beach—one report noted 36 head of pompano caught in a single morning, mixed with ladyfish, sharks, and catfish. The nearshore bite out to 20 miles has also been on fire, with Spanish mackerel, kingfish, and cobia all showing up in numbers, especially where you can find those thick menhaden bait pods. Offshore, mahi, blackfin tuna, and wahoo are making good showings, especially for those dragging cigar minnows and ballyhoo behind sea witches and Mackahoos.
Redfish are working the oyster bars, flats, and mangroves. Target them with live shrimp or cut bait early, but don’t sleep on soft plastics or gold spoons if you’re sight fishing. For tarpon fans, the passes and beaches from Tampa down to Boca Grande remain hot—these silvers are rolling and feeding heavy during the morning incoming and evening outgoing tides.
Lure and bait selection is straightforward this week. Live shrimp, sand fleas, and cut bait are putting up good numbers for pompano and redfish. Spanish mackerel and bluefish are hitting small jigs and Gotcha plugs near the big bait pods. Offshore, it’s tough to beat live menhaden, cigar minnows, or ballyhoo on that double-treble hook rig. Keep a pitch rod ready with a 4-ounce jig and plastic eel for a shot at cruising cobia.
A couple of local hot spots for today:
- Shell Point and the flats around St. Marks for redfish and trout, especially with today’s tidal swing.
- The nearshore reefs and piers around Destin and Panama City for Spanish mackerel, kings, and pompano.
- Boca Grande Pass for those still chasing the tarpon bite—it’s prime time right now.
