Excellent Fishing Conditions in St. Augustine - Tidal Cycles, Weather, and Promising Catches

  • Summary

  • If you're planning to hit the waters around St. Augustine today, here’s what you need to know. As of November 10th, the tidal conditions are quite favorable, with the first high tide having occurred at 9:42 AM and the next one expected at 9:55 PM. The low tides were at 3:26 AM and will be again at 4:09 PM. The tidal coefficient is high, indicating strong tidal movements and currents, which can be beneficial for fishing[1].

    The weather is looking good, with clear sunny skies and temperatures in the mid-70s. There's a moderate northeast wind of about 10-15 knots, which should make for a pleasant day on the water[3].

    Sunrise today was at 7:40 AM, and sunset will be at 6:37 PM, giving you a full day to enjoy the fishing spots.

    Fishing has been good in the area, especially after the recent hurricane has passed. Yesterday, anglers reported catching a variety of fish including vermillion snapper, trigger fish, and some larger species like cobia and amberjack. Inshore fishing has also been productive, with red fish, black drum, flounder, and sheepshead trout being common catches[2][3].

    For offshore fishing, using live bait such as ballyhoos and sardines has been effective. For inshore fishing, live mullet either on the bottom or free-lined can attract sharks, tarpon, and giant jacks[3][4].

    Some hot spots to consider include the St. Augustine Inlet, where you can find a mix of inshore and offshore species. The backcountry areas, including the creeks and tributaries, are also excellent for targeting red fish, black drum, and flounder. The Intracoastal Waterway and its many flats and estuaries are known for their abundant fish life and are worth exploring[3][5].

    Overall, it's shaping up to be a great day for fishing in St. Augustine, so make sure to take advantage of the favorable conditions and good fish activity.
