Fishing

Fishing can be enjoyed year-round in St. Augustine and St. Johns County. Off-shore fishing is considered some of the best around and the area plays host each year to several tournaments. Charter boats are available for all size groups. Speckled Trout, Yellow Mouth Trout, Black Drum, Red Bass, Flounder, Sheepshead, Whiting, Bluefish, and Pompano challenge shore fisherman. Cobia, King Mackeral, and Mangrove Snapper are favorite catches for near-shore boaters, while Dolphin, Wahoo, Marlin, Sailfish, Grouper, and Mako Sharks tempt deep-sea fisherman. Freshwater fisherman can look foward to good fishing for Panfish, Bream, Warmouth, Black Bass, and Speckled Perch.
