| 12-20-11 TUESDAY: FISHING REMAINS SLOW This morning winds are blowing out of the South-Southeast at 16 mph and there is a moderate chop on the water. A small craft advisory remains for offshore. Always check the coastal forecast before going offshore, conditions can change very quickly. Fishing remains hit or miss, mostly miss! A variety of small fish are being landed during the daylight hours but nothing in big numbers or with much size. Nights are still bringing us some oversized Reds and big Tarpon are giving inlet anglers a good workout. Please remember that Snook season closed last week and will not reopen until February 1st. Snook are strictly catch and release at this time. Our photo today features Alec and his buddy Jared, both juniors at Harmony High School, were wading the mangroves just north of the inlet around 9:00 a.m. when Alec hooked up with this real nice 26" slot Red. This was his first catch on a new St. Croix Avid with a Shimano Stradic 4000 and GULP shrimp. Alec released the Red unharmed. The below photo features Ben who landed his 28" Black Drum off the north jetty last Thursday using dead shrimp. Fishing the north side of the north jetty on an outgoing tide, Ben landed his largest Black Drum to date.  |  |
