Fishing Report – Gulf Stream Action Heating Up!

Good evening from Drop Down Sport Fish Charters in the beautiful city St.Augustine Florida.

Summer is heating up in the oldest city in America, and so is the offshore bite! If you're heading to town for some deep sea fishing off the coast of St. Augustine, Florida, now’s the time to book your St. Augustine fishing charter.

This July, offshore kingfish are running strong, with solid action on the troll and near wrecks. These fast, hard-fighting predators are providing plenty of excitement for anglers looking for that screaming drag and adrenaline rush.

On the bottom, the bite is just as hot. We’re seeing great numbers of mangrove snapper, vermilion snapper, and lane snapper, all eager to take a well-placed bait. Triggerfish are also showing up in good numbers and making for excellent table fare.

Whether you're a seasoned angler or looking to book your first offshore fishing trip, the conditions out of St. Augustine are lining up perfectly for an unforgettable day on the water.

Drop Down Sport Fish Charters is running daily trips and ready to get you hooked up—offering expert crews, top-quality gear, and local knowledge that puts you right on the fish.

Please don’t be fooled by these “new captains“ on the Fishing Booker website or other phony and fake websites. Don’t be fooled and book an offshore fishing Charter on a 20 foot boat with 4 to 6 people and think you’re going offshore only to be canceled the night before because “It’s too rough” . Time and time again I get these calls from poor people booking on Fishing Booker with captains that have barely been in the ocean and expect to catch offshore fish. Do your research. Look at the pictures of what they really catch daily.

Come experience fishing with a born and raised local captain and why fishing in St. Augustine is one of Florida’s hidden gems—where rich history meets world-class fishing.
