Mahi mahi, kingfish, wahoo, and tuna. Use your depth finder
to locate the color change where the greener water meets
the blue, a hotspot for these species. Mangrove shorelines, snook,
mangrove snapper, jacks, and even some groupers can be found here.
Live bait such as mullet or shrimp works well in
these areas. For bonefish and permit focus on the flats
and channels, especially during the rising tide. Live crabs are
a favorite among permit Offshore, use live bait like pilchards
or mullet for Mahi mahi, wahoo and tuna. For deeper waters,
consider using heavy surf rods with baits suspended at various depths.
