Summer months offer ideal conditions with clear water visibility and active fish movement. The inshore waters around Cedar Point provide excellent habitat for multiple shark species and gamefish, making each trip productive for both novice and experienced anglers.

Local Species Insights: Bonnethead Shark

Bonnethead Sharks thrive in the warm coastal waters around Cedar Point during summer months, feeding actively on crabs, shrimp, and small fish in shallow grass flats and sandy bottoms. These smaller hammerheads are known for their distinctive shovel-shaped heads and docile nature, making them excellent targets for family-friendly fishing trips. Bottom fishing with cut bait near structure produces consistent results, especially during afternoon hours when water temperatures peak and feeding activity increases.
