YELLOWFIN TUNA – Plenty.
DORADO – Still the star of the inshore.
ROOSTERFISH\\JACK CREVALLE – Sunrise or sunset for the ambitious.

The Jacks or Better Charity Tournament and Guide Challenge will wrap up today (Saturday). While sunny during the day, the last several evenings have produced torrential downpours creating more than usual runoff that has caused less than ideal inshore conditions. So far the fishing has been good and the catching on the slow side. A number of larger roosters and jacks have been found but none landed. The Guide Challenge produced lively competition between the guides throughout the week with the final accuracy casting event to be held later today to determine the winner of the $1,000 prize.
