There's a zillion snapper blues (during the day), easy to catch with a basic lure - rooster tail, silver weight with a hook, or a smaller piece you usually put on a jig. Then, live line the "snapper blue" - no weight, and a fluke (usually keeper size) will hit.
Later in the day / early eve, the harbor and alligator blues moved in. Yesterday high tide was 11:26 am, so I'm guessing it's around 12:08 pm tomorrow or so. The snappers were always available, only bunker were peanuts, but, there was plenty to be had if you're not in a rush. End of the day I caught a large snapper (when looking for more fluke bait), and a harbor blue (17.5 inches).
I failed on my fluke mission (lost a keeper of about 18-19 inches) when I was bringing it up. But, plenty of fish - now. (Also - fluke season ends very, very soon). If anybody would like to meet me, let me know.
