This morning winds are blowing out of the East-Southeast at 7 mph and the water is clean, calm and cold. It's been a very quiet week at the inlet. The bite has been slow on the jetties but some of our boaters have had some luck. This morning there is a lot of activity in the water. Schools of Snook are stacked up alongside the north jetty, schools of Bonito are darting around, breaking the surface of the water, Atlantic Spadefish are visible as are a few Sheepshead. There are a lot of greenies schooling around both sides of the north jetty and there are glass minnows in the mix. A couple of "baby" Goliath Grouper, about 100 lbs each, are lurking under the north jetty as well! There are definitely fish and bait at the inlet, but getting them to bite is a whole different story. One large Bonito was landed this morning in the 10 lb. range and that was it between 8:00 - 10:00 a.m.
Our first photos is of Wayne who was using live shrimp to land the beautiful Permit, he estimated it to weigh between 25 - 30 lbs. This beauty was landed on the outgoing tide.
Aldo is featured in our second photo today with a large C/R Snook he landed using live shrimp, that was gently released after the photo.
Photo three features Daniel Agate of Statesville, NC with a Silver Sea Trout he landed while fishing west of the catwalk.
