FISHING REPORT - January 2026 - Picante Sportfishing
January delivered outstanding fishing action across the board. Roosterfish fishing was incredible, with great early-morning bites from these hard-fighting shoreline warriors. Release numbers for Striped marlin increased compared to December, and we also saw an uptick in both the number and size of Dorado. Tuna action remained consistent, and several lucky anglers were rewarded with Wahoo.
What can we expect for February? We believe the Marlin numbers will continue, with good chances for swordfish as well. February should also be an excellent time for snapper, grouper, and yellowtail. Contact us and book your fishing trip!
If Finger Banks is on your bucket list, now is the time. We’ve been seeing excellent reports with double-digit marlin days, along with Dorado, Wahoo, and—if luck is on your side—tuna.
Enjoy the pictures!
