03-29-12 THURSDAY: SPORADIC CATCHES OF BLACK DRUM, FLOUNDER AND POMPANO
What a gorgeous morning at the inlet. Winds are blowing out of the West-Northwest at 2 mph and the water has a light chop. If the wind stays out of the WNW and picks up a little, we could see a small swell for the surfers out there. Please use caution when casting off the north side of the north jetty. Fish are there almost every day, waves aren't. Play nice and share the space.Yesterday, the bite was slow for some, but those anglers with finger mullet did well with Flounder off the north jetty. A few nice Pompano, a couple of large Black Drum and a few Spots came over the rails.
Our first photo is of Conrado Ramos of Kissimmee with a beautiful 31 3/4" Snook he landed off the north jetty.
Father and son and inlet regulars Jim and John Jeffers of Melbourne fished the north jetty on Tuesday and cleaned up on Flounder using live finger mullet and shrimp. John reported a slow bite in the early morning, but they prevailed with six nice Flounder but lost seven that spit the hook! Photo two is of the Jeffers' Flounder on the cleaning table, getting ready to become dinner!
Sonny Advincula of Kissimmee is featured in our third photo today with a couple of real nice Pompano he landed using clams.
Our fourth photo is of Dan Waldren with an enormous Tarpon he landed at night using a bucktail off the south jetty. He estimated this Tarpon to be in somewhere between 40 - 60 lbs and 60" long.
