Saltwater Fishing

Fishing in St. Augustine

America's oldest city sits on an inlet that pushes strong tidal current between the Matanzas and Tolomato Rivers and the Atlantic, concentrating bait and gamefish in a small area. It is a solid base for both inshore redfish and trout fishing and offshore trips to nearby reefs and wrecks.

The St. Augustine Inlet and the rock jetties either side of it hold redfish, sheepshead, and tarpon depending on the season. Offshore, a short run reaches live-bottom reefs that fish well for snapper and grouper most of the year.
