We had lots of citations today, one of which was for a 50 pound cobia caught on one of our inshore charters. Along with cobia there were speckled trout and some blue fish caught by the inshore fleet. The nearshore fleet had good luck with the blue fish and hooked a few spanish mackerel as well. Billfish have really started to show up and if it keeps up it is really going to be a great season. There were a lot of white marlin releases reported today along with some sailfish releases reported. Yellow fin Tuna was the dominant fish today on the dock for the offshore fleet.
