June is one of my favorite months to be on the water. The summer pattern is locked in, the seas run calmer than spring, and the fish are showing up in numbers.
Mahi-Mahi (Dolphin Fish)
The mahi are here. We've been finding them on the weed lines in the Gulf Stream, in 300–600 feet of water, though some days the current pushes fish closer. Trolling has been producing well. Rigged ballyhoo on colored sea witches has been the go-to. Finding a school and switching to live bait gets them fired up fast.
Best bet: 6 or 8-hour trip if mahi is your primary target, it gives us time to run to the weed lines and work them properly.
Sailfish
Sailfish action has slowed from the winter peak, but we're still seeing fish. June isn't the best month for sails, that's December through March, but they don't disappear. For sailfish, a 6 or 8-hour trip with kite fishing gives you the best shot.
Wahoo
Full moon periods in summer are when wahoo show up off our coast, and June has a full moon worth fishing around. We've had some nice wahoo come over the side on high-speed trolling runs in 120–200 feet. They don't show up on every trip, but when they're biting it's a good day.
Reef Fishing (Snapper, Grouper, Kingfish)
The reefs are fishing well. Mutton snapper are active on the bottom structure in 80–120 feet, yellowtail are schooling along the reef edge, and we've been picking up solid grouper on live pinfish. Kingfish are patrolling the reef edges, good targets on the 4-hour trips.
If you've got younger kids or beginners in your group, a 4-hour reef trip right now is going to be a lot of fun. Steady action, plenty of variety.
Blackfin Tuna
We're finding scattered schools of blackfin on the edge of the Stream in 150–250 feet. Chunking with cut bait or jigging has been working. Not wide-open tuna fishing, but they're around.
Inshore (Boynton Beach)
Tarpon are running the beaches off Boynton right now. Peak season. Snook are holding near the inlet structure. If you're into light tackle inshore fishing, mention it when you book and we can talk through options.
Conditions
Water temperature is right around 83–85°F. The Gulf Stream is running 2–3 knots north and pushing blue water in fairly close to shore, about 3–5 miles off the Boynton Inlet, a little farther off Pompano. Seas have been 1–3 feet most mornings, picking up in the afternoon, which makes early start times the call in summer.
Bottom Line for June
If I had to pick one trip for June, it's a 6-hour out of Boynton Beach. You've got time to run to the mahi, work the weed lines, and still come back and hit the reefs for snapper on the way in. That's a full fish box if things go right.
Call us or book online, weekends are filling up.
