  • St. Augustine Fishing Report: Sheepshead, Trout, and Mahi-Mahi Bites Heating Up for Memorial Day Weekend
    May 23 2025
    Good morning, anglers. This is Artificial Lure with your St. Augustine fishing report for Friday, May 23rd, 2025. We’re shaping up for another classic Northeast Florida May day. The weather’s set to be mostly clear, with light southwest winds around 5 to 10 knots, temps climbing into the low 80s, and the water temp hovering near 71 degrees. Sunrise came at 6:28 AM and you’ll have daylight to fish until sunset at 8:13 PM, so there’s plenty of time to wet a line[5].

    Tidal swing’s decent today, so expect a moving tide to keep fish active, especially around the higher tide marks mid-morning and again as it falls in the late afternoon. That means your window for top action inshore will be on those tide changes.

    Fishing’s been solid this week, both in the river and offshore. Inshore, sheepshead have finally started showing with some consistency, particularly up in the river bends and around docks and pilings. The jetties have been hit and miss for sheepshead, but when they’re biting, they’re quality fish[1][5]. Live fiddler crabs and small pieces of shrimp on a jig head are hard to beat, but if you’re tossing artificials, try a small white or chartreuse paddletail bounced slow.

    Speckled trout are firing up on the grass flats and creek mouths at first light. Folks have done well free-lining live shrimp, but MirrOlure MirrOdines and white curly-tail grubs are putting numbers in the boat, too. Redfish are working the same areas, plus hanging in the shallows along oyster bars. A gold spoon or that trusty Z-Man paddletail in green pumpkin will get their attention. Folks are still picking up bonus bull reds at the Bridge of Lions and further north in the ICW[1].

    Offshore, it’s hard to beat the bite right now. The mahi-mahi run is going strong in 80-120 feet of water, and blackfin tuna are in good numbers alongside wahoo, sailfish, amberjack, and snapper. Ballyhoo and sardines are the best bait out deep, but high-speed trolling lures are catching wahoo if you want some speed and excitement[4].

    If you want a surefire spot inshore, hit the Vilano Bridge for big sheepshead and reds, or work the flats around Salt Run at sunup for trout and slot reds. Offshore, head southeast to the ledge for the dolphin (mahi) bite—it’s as hot as it gets this time of year.

    In summary, bring shrimp or fiddler crabs if you’re chasing sheepshead, and don’t leave home without a couple of good artificials for trout and reds. Offshore, load up on ballyhoo or sardines and get ready for a mixed bag of pelagics.

    Tight lines and enjoy the bite this Memorial Day weekend. This is Artificial Lure, see y’all on the water[1][4][5].

  • St. Augustine Fishing Report: Redfish, Trout, and Offshore Action Heating Up
    May 21 2025
    Hey there, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your St. Augustine fishing update for this beautiful Wednesday morning, May 21, 2025.

    The fishing scene around St. Augustine has been red hot lately! Inshore waters are producing steady action, with redfish, speckled trout, and black drum giving folks plenty to smile about. The backwater bite has been particularly strong these past couple weeks, with many locals reporting excellent catches.

    Water temps are sitting around 77 degrees, which has those fish moving and feeding actively. Early morning high tides have been producing some spectacular topwater action - if you haven't tried throwing a 3 1/8 inch Skitterwalk plug yet, you're missing out on some heart-stopping strikes!

    For those targeting redfish, they've been holding in the slot size range, especially along oyster edges and grassy flats during early morning high tides. Soft plastics and live shrimp under popping corks have been the ticket. The creeks have been particularly productive.

    Flounder are showing up nicely around sandy points and dock pilings. Try mud minnows or a jig-and-minnow combo if you're looking to put some flatties in the cooler.

    Black drum continue to hang around bridges and deeper structure. Fresh crab and shrimp have been producing consistent bites. Don't forget about the sheepshead around dock pilings and jetties - fiddler crabs are your best bet for these bait-stealers.

    For those heading offshore, reports show activity in the 80-120 foot range with ballyhoos and sardines working well as bait.

    Hot spots to check out: Vilano Point has been firing lately with plenty of action on the flats and around pilings. The jetties have been hit or miss, but worth a try. The Intracoastal Waterway and its many creeks are also solid bets right now.

    Best time to fish has been early morning or late afternoon, as the bite tends to slow during mid-day. With water clarity improving as winds settle down, sight casting is becoming a viable option during lower tides.

    Whether you're fishing solo or jumping on a charter, now's a great time to be wetting a line in our local waters. Just remember to bring plenty of sun protection and hydration - it's heating up out there!

    Tight lines, friends! This is Artificial Lure signing off until next time. See y'all on the water!

  • St. Augustine Fishing Report: Redfish, Sheepshead, and Offshore Action Heating Up
    May 19 2025
    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your St. Augustine fishing report for this beautiful Monday morning, May 19, 2025.

    Weather's looking fine today with sunny skies and temperatures heading into the low 80s. We've got light westerly winds around 10 knots, making for some calm waters, especially in the morning hours. Perfect conditions to get out on the water!

    The inshore fishing around St. Augustine has been firing up nicely this past week. The redfish bite has been steady, particularly during the morning high tides. You'll find those slot-sized reds hanging around the grass flats and creek mouths. Some bull reds are making surprise appearances too - always a bonus when you hook into one of those bruisers[1][4].

    Sheepshead have finally started showing up in good numbers, mostly in the river systems. The jetties have been hit or miss for them, so plan accordingly[1]. Black drum are also making a decent showing, particularly around structure and pilings[4].

    Trout fishing has picked up, with some good speckled trout catches reported on live shrimp. If you're heading offshore, the reports have been solid with sailfish, barracuda, various snappers, trigger fish, amberjack, and cobia all in the mix. Water temps are hovering around 70-77 degrees in the 80-120 foot depth range[3].

    For bait, live shrimp under popping corks has been the ticket for inshore species, especially along oyster edges and drop-offs. Soft plastics are working well for redfish. If you're heading offshore, ballyhoo and sardines have been producing nicely[3][4].

    Hot spots this week: Vilano Point has been productive for inshore action with redfish, flounder, and black drum all being caught regularly[4]. The Intracoastal Waterway creeks and backcountry estuaries are also holding plenty of fish - Captain Tommy Derringer knows those waters like the back of his hand and has been putting clients on fish consistently[2]. The St. Johns River is another good bet, especially for those sheepshead that have been showing up.

    If you're looking to book a charter, there are plenty of great options in town. Just make sure you're going with someone who knows these waters - the local guides have been consistently getting their clients on fish despite the season being a bit behind schedule[1].

    That's all for now, anglers! Get out there and wet a line - the fish are biting! This is Artificial Lure signing off until next time. Tight lines, y'all!
