About this spot

Fishing Point Adelle

Point Adelle is a cape in Biscayne Bay, Florida. Depth in the nearest water is 9-20 ft, with a flat bottom. Its profile reads point, outer water and exposed.

It is peak season now for common snook, red drum, crevalle jack and king mackerel, and shoulder season for Florida pompano, gray snapper, Atlantic tarpon and black drum. Florida pompano peak from December through March. Common snook peak from April through May and from September through November. Red drum peak from October through February.

Tackle & technique

Cobia: Cobia cruise inlets, beaches, buoys, wrecks and the backs of rays in 5 to 100 feet of water. On calm, sunny days sight-cast bucktails or live eels to fish near the surface. Otherwise anchor up-current of structure, chum, and fish live eels, crabs or menhaden near the bottom.
Florida pompano: Pompano feed on sand fleas and coquina clams in the trough between the beach and the first sandbar, and around the sandy edges of passes, inlets and bridges. Surf anglers fish a two-hook pompano rig with sand fleas, clams or shrimp, while boat and bridge anglers bounce small jigs along the bottom. The runs follow water temperature, heading north in spring and south in fall as the water cools.
Common snook: Snook ambush bait around mangrove shorelines, bridge and dock lights, jetties and the mouths of passes and inlets, generally in 2 to 15 feet of water. Fish moving water, especially the outgoing tide, with a live pilchard, pinfish or shrimp, or a jerkbait or soft plastic swum past the structure. In summer they spawn along beaches and inlets, and in winter they crowd into rivers, canals and deep backcountry creeks where the water stays warmer.
