08-21-12 TUESDAY: BONITO, C/R SNOOK, ATLANTIC SPADEFISH AND LOOKDOWNS
It's a real pretty morning at the inlet. Winds are blowing out of the South-Southwest at 7 mph and the water is clean, calm and cold.
We received an update from Mike Ricciardi of Vero Beach who fished the north jetty yesterday morning. Mike reported the water was ice cold, but crystal clear. There was a lot of bait in the water, mostly glass minnows (sardines) and the Bonito and Jacks were tearing them up. Several Bonito were landed, Mike got one. A lot of Snook were schooling around the north jetty as were Atlantic Spadefish. The Snook bite turned on about 9:30 a.m. and Mike landed and safely released two, one was 28.5" and one was 34". Bonito were taking lures and live shrimp got the C/R Snook. One Lookdown was caught, but that was about it for the morning.
The first photo today is of Mike Ricciardi with one of the C/R Snook.
