Good afternoon here from Drop Down Sport Fish Charters in Saint Augustine Florida. The weather is overcast with east winds 10 knots and about 60 degrees outside. Saint Augustine Florida is a great place to visit this time of year and do a offshore fishing charter. Offshore fishing trolling for sailfish wahoo mahi tuna fish and more is all targeted species. The water is finally actually changing and getting colder and bringing some different pelagic‘s around. Deep-sea fishing charters like bottom fishing for grouper snapper triggerfish Amberjack and Cobia are also very productive this time of year fishing big ledges and wrecks that hold bigger fish. The best way to target Cobia and Amber Jack is to have a live bait or jig and it’s not uncommon to have 2-3 come up to the boat when hooked up to a fish. Some of the best Offshore fishing charters I’ve ever had has been in the month of December over wrecks and big structure. If you are coming to Saint Augustine Florida and want to go on a offshore fishing charter, give us a call at Drop Down Sport Fish Charters and let’s go fishing!!
