What Is Nearshore Fishing?
Nearshore fishing, sometimes called near shore fishing, takes place outside the inshore creeks and marshes, but not as far as deep-sea waters. These areas usually sit 10–25 miles off the beach, where water depth increases and fish are larger and more active.
Nearshore trips are great for families, beginners, and anglers who want stronger fish than inshore species without long offshore travel time.
