My great uncle lives down there, he's been catching lots of snapper blues when the tide is coming in right off the beach. Tons of baitfishing down there too, I was there this weekend and reached down into the water and grabbed one with my hand. Probably some small fluke out there too. Best thing to do is hit a local B&TS and see who's catching what. Good luck and tight lines!

This time of year its mostly fluke and smaller blues during the day. I would use gulp for the fluke and target them both surf and bay. At night its sharks and maybe some bass which I would use bait and focus in the surf.

If temps are up I'd be launching bunker chunks on wire rigs and 80 lb braid at night. A good heavy 11-12' rod and a reel that can hold well over 300 yards. Get sharky
