Light west wind around 5 mph with 1–2 ft seas and a low rip current risk. Conditions are clean and fishable across the board. The high tide tonight at 6:58 PM sets up a solid afternoon window — fish should be active as the water pushes in through the late afternoon.
What's Biting Today
Spanish Mackerel — Moving through the Navarre Beach Fishing Pier. Spoons and cigar minnows on light tackle are the standard approach. Fish the incoming tide for the best action.
Hardtail (Blue Runner) — Running with the Spanish mackerel at the pier. Worth targeting if you're looking for live bait to drop down for something bigger.
Jack Crevalle — Mixed in along the pier with the mackerel and hardtail. Schooling fish, so when you find them, expect company.
Pompano — Holding in the surf zone. Sand fleas are the bait of choice. Work the troughs along the beach, especially during the afternoon tide push.
Best window: 4:00–7:00 PM CT, building into the evening high tide.
Pier Report
Pier hours: contact Navarre Beach Marine Park for current hours. Spanish mackerel, hardtail, and jack crevalle are the main action right now — all three have been moving through consistently. The afternoon incoming tide should keep things active into the evening.
