What bites on Ten Mile Reef

Structure in 45 ft on the Atlantic coast usually holds: Black sea bass, Gag grouper, Mangrove snapper, Triggerfish, Cobia, King mackerel. What is actually biting changes with the season, water temperature and tide — the day's plan for this reef has the bite window and what to target that day.

Anchoring on Ten Mile Reef

In 45 ft, pay out about 245 ft of rode at 5:1 in calm water, or 343 ft at 7:1 when it's blowing. Drop the anchor up-drift of the structure by about the same distance and fall back onto it. Before you drop, kill the engine for 60 seconds and watch your GPS track — that's your real drift, and it beats any forecast.
