Pier/Surf
The water is clear and calm and the sun is shining at the Okaloosa Island with a bit of a northwest wind. On a daily basis, anglers are pulling in king mackerel, Spanish mackerel, hardtail, pompano and bonito. Other fish showing up are skipjack, bluefish, whiting and redfish.
Anglers are also lining the beach surf fishing and pulling in pompano and whiting. Sand fleas, dead shrimp and jigs work well for bait. Only a couple of weeks left in the local cobia tournaments with 90-plus pounders topping the boards. Eels, jigs, tube lures and live baits work well.
