  • Summary

  • For those heading out to fish in St. Augustine today, November 23, 2024, here’s what you can expect:

    First off, let's look at the tides. Today, the high tide is at 12:07 PM with a height of 5.2 feet, and the low tide is at 6:23 AM and 6:44 PM, both around 0.6 feet[2].

    The weather is a bit chilly with the first cold front of the year bringing air temperatures into the low 40s, which should spark strong feeding patterns among the fish[4].

    Sunrise was at 6:55 AM, and sunset will be at 5:27 PM, giving you a good window of daylight to get out on the water[2].

    Fishing has been a mixed bag lately, but there are some bright spots. Flounder fishing has been up and down, but when they're biting, they're biting well. The mullet run, which has been a key factor in attracting larger fish, is starting to die off, but there are still some good catches to be had[3].

    For inshore fishing, reds and trout have been active. A local captain reported catching several slot reds and even a tagged red after the big tides yesterday[5].

    When it comes to lures and bait, live or artificial mullet are still effective for catching reds and trout. For flounder, using live mud minnows or finger mullet can be very productive. If you're looking to cast some lures, jigs and spoons are good choices, especially in the shallower waters around the inlets and marshes[3].

    Some hot spots to consider include the inshore areas around the Matanzas Inlet and the salt marshes along the Intracoastal Waterway. These areas tend to hold a lot of bait fish, which in turn attract the larger species you're after.

    Overall, with the cold front moving in and the changing tides, today could be a great day to get out and catch some fish in St. Augustine. Just make sure to bundle up and be prepared for the cooler weather.
