If you haven't noticed there is a change in the air here in South Florida.Open the door first thing in the morning and you can't help but notice thecoolness to the morning's air. Every serious South Florida fishermenimmediately gets excited when they feel that Fall change in the air. They knowthat the Fall migration started weeks ago and now the FINGER MULLET are here!.Large schools of baitfish have invaded the waters of South Florida weeks ago.Small Spanish mackerel, bluefish, bluerunners, jacks and ladyfish have followedthis baitfish into Biscayne Bay where some of my savvy clients have had theopportunity to cash in on the action. Others have booked me for charters thatwill take place in the near future. Bigger fish will soon make their appearancebe known. Large jack crevalles, bigger bluefish, Spanish mackerel, juvenileking mackerel, large ladyfish, medium to large tarpon, pompano and snook thatare following the baitfish schools south will be here any minute. The nicething is that this migration will continue through the end of November. Afterthat each school of migrating fish that moved into our area will leavestragglers behind and those stragglers will join together creating a prettysteady fishery for South Florida into the Spring when the migrating fish returnas they head north.
Besides the migrating fish that we have to target with cooler air and watertemperatures coming our inshore bottom fishing will take off. In the pastduring late October and early November I have had 100 grouper and snapper daysfishing the channels of South Biscayne Bay. Most of these fish are just undersize but there are always a few legal red groupers and mutton snappers mixed inwith the smaller fish and the action can be non stop.
When the weather allows the offshore fishing for larger kingfish, mackerel,blackfin tuna and dolphins will be good.
Flamingo in Everglades' National Park will see snook schools scattering asthe fish start their move into the backcountry for the winter. But if the rainscontinue like they have these snook will hold on the outside shorelines as theywait for the right conditions for them to make their move. Add to the snookaction there will be plenty of action from redfish, the return of black drum,sheepshead, mackerel, bluefish, pompano, cobia and gag groupers so you can seehow things are shaping up for some exciting Fall fishing.
Well that catches us up for now.
