It's a real pretty morning at the inlet. The wind is blowing out of the South-Southeast at 2 mph and gusting to 3! The water is glassy and the no see 'ums are out in force, take insect repellent with you if you head to the inlet today!
There are only a few people out braving the heat, humidity and no see 'ums this morning. The bite has been typical for August, on the slow side. A nice fish to take home will make an appearance now and then, but they are few and far between. Catch and release Snook have been active, but they are still out of season for a few more weeks. Please handle the Snook with care! Tommy Turowski and the Inlet Bait and Tackle Shop said some Mangrove Snapper were being landed on the flats and a few Jacks came over the rails yesterday, but overall, it was a slow day.
We received an update from Skip Stowers of Kissimmee who fished with his son Sean after the rains. Skip reported a beautiful evening with clean, cold water and pods of small Tarpon in the 5 - 15 lb. range everywhere, but they refused to bite. Ladyfish were abundant after dark, but they failed to land anything large. The Stowers' best catch of the night was the 5 lb. Silver Trout in our first photo today, which was released right after the photo.
