The fall like feel to the weather should jump start those surf guys who are stuck in the summer doldrums. Remember the mullet run is just around the corner marking the start of the fall run.

Typical August weather, hazy, hot and humid! You will find some relief from this weather at the beach of course. While there cooling off, grab your rod, tie on a 3/4 to 1 oz. buck tail tipped with a 4" swimming mullet by gulp and give those flatties a try. Remember IBSP fluke regulations from the beach is 2 fish at 16", dinner for two! Any other location you have to deal with 3 fish at 18". Crabbing remains a pick... John Yac

The surf is a lot more fishable then it has been for the past several days. Rain gear is in order for today.

The best daytime surf action continues to be in IBSP. Fluking in the cuts and holes in the area of the inlet is producing some nice keeper fluke.

The bay report remains the same, crabbing slow, snapper blues with occasional larger bluefish roaming the docks and bulkheads... John Yac

Surf guys are picking some nice fluke, not a ton, but when you find their ambush points you usually hook up with a decent keeper.

Small metals on light tackle is the way to go. Crabbing is still slow in the bay... John Yac
