Best sheepshead spots today →
Scores conditions for each fish, not where they are or when a run starts. Water temperature is today’s reading applied to the whole week, so a cold front further out won’t show here until the water follows. Temperature ranges are rules of thumb for Florida inshore water; the snook range is from published research.
Fishing Boynton Beach
Boynton Inlet is small, narrow, and ferocious — a huge volume of Lake Worth Lagoon squeezing through a short cut, which makes it one of the most reliable snook and tarpon spots on the Gold Coast and one of the trickier ones to run. Just outside, the reef line sits within a few hundred yards of the beach, holding mutton snapper, permit, and kingfish on a very short run.
Target species
- Snook
- Tarpon
- Permit
- Mutton snapper
Local tip: The outgoing rips through this inlet — it's the classic snook and tarpon tide, and the roughest to boat.
