 Hey there, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your St. Augustine fishing report for Sunday, May 18th, 2025.

We're looking at another gorgeous day on the water with temperatures around 82 degrees. It's perfect fishing weather, y'all! The bite has been great lately, so now's the time to get out there.

The redfish action has been hot, with several bull reds being caught as a bonus while targeting other species. Captain Mike recently put folks on some beautiful redfish, along with a nice trout bite. Speaking of trout, there have been some good speckled trout catches using live shrimp as bait.

Sheepshead have finally started showing up, mostly in the river areas. The jetties are currently hit or miss for them, so plan accordingly. If you're heading offshore, mixed species have been biting well, with several successful trips reported just yesterday and throughout this past week.

For bait, live shrimp is working great for the trout. If you're targeting those reds in the shallows, try gold spoons or soft plastics on a jighead. For the sheepshead, fiddler crabs or clams will do the trick.

Some hot spots to check out: The Intracoastal Waterway and its many creeks and flats have been productive, especially for shallow water fishing. Captain Tommy Derringer, a local guide, has been having success in these areas. Also worth trying are the Nassau inlet, Mayport, and of course, St. Augustine inlet - all prime spots right now.

For those looking to venture offshore, several charters have reported successful trips this week. Teresa B. mentioned having a great offshore trip just three days ago, so the bite is definitely on out there.

The backcountry estuaries around Palm Coast and Flagler Beach areas are also worth exploring if you're up for a bit of a drive.

Tide-wise, we're on a moderate cycle today, so plan your trips around the moving water periods for best results.

Remember folks, with the weather warming up, the early bird gets the worm - or in our case, the fish! Try to get out there early or later in the evening for the best action.

That's it for today's report. This is Artificial Lure signing off. Tight lines, y'all, and I'll see you on the water!
