[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]inshore, with the[/size][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]larger variety under the porpoise at least 30 miles out. Sailfish numbers[/size][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]continue to increase and there’s a pretty good bite on the blues and stripes[/size][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]as well. I still think the inshore offers the best opportunities.[/size][/font]

[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]DORADO - Still the mature singles here and there. Look for the schoolies to[/size][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]begin showing up in the next week or two.[/size][/font]

[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]ROOSTERFISH - With the sardina tougher to find, the midday sight-casting has[/size][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]been the best prospect for the last few days.[/size][/font]
