The Daily Catch | Fishing Report – November 2024
November has been an exciting month for fishing enthusiasts, offering incredible opportunities despite the challenges. The Spanish mackerel bite has been nothing short of spectacular, with great numbers and impressive sizes coming in while trolling. These fish provide non-stop action and are a joy to catch. Adding to the excitement, kingfish have also made their presence known, offering anglers an extra challenge and the thrill of a powerful run.
This month, our fishing adventures have been all about maximizing our trolling techniques to bring in the best catches. We’ve been experimenting with various rigs to suit the conditions and target species. Spoons and plugs have been effective for covering ground and enticing strikes, while rigged ballyhoo has proven irresistible to pelagics. When the opportunity arises, we’ve also leaned into live baiting, utilizing bump trolling to keep our baits moving naturally and in the strike zone. These approaches have kept the lines tight and the action consistent, even as the weather challenges us with shifting conditions.
Red Snapper Season Reopens
In even bigger news, the much-anticipated red snapper season reopened on November 18th and will run through the end of December. These prized fish are back on the menu, and we’re thrilled to target them again. While the fishing has been fantastic, November has reminded us why it’s also a challenging month. Cold fronts have been rolling in, bringing gusty winds that can make it tricky to get offshore.
Even with these weather challenges, we’ve adapted and found success closer to shore. By adjusting our tactics, we’ve been able to locate fish in more protected areas, proving that a little creativity and perseverance go a long way. Whether nearshore or offshore, the action has been worth every effort.
If you’re looking for heart-pounding action and a chance to land some trophy fish, now’s the time to get out on the water. Whether you’re after mackerel, kingfish, or the coveted red snapper, this season is delivering unforgettable fishing experiences.
