08-24-12 FRIDAY: SLOW BITE, BUT IT COULD BE PICKING UP
This morning we had a nice breeze on the north jetty from 7:30 - 10:00, but unfortunately, the fish were not cooperating. Only two Mangrove Snapper came over the rails during that time and an unidentified angler landed a Flounder in the tide pool. Ladyfish have been very active at night. Hopefully with the water temperature rising, we will see some good activity over the weekend.
We received an update from inlet regular Mike Ricciardi of Vero Beach who fished the north jetty yesterday morning. Mike reported that brothers Rick Jablonski and Don Weller of Sebastian were a couple of lucky guys with two keeper Reds at 25" and 26" while freelining live shrimp on the morning outgoing tide. Rick also landed a nice C/R Snook. Mike reported a few other Reds being landed but that was about it until he left the jetty at 10:30. When the tide switched to incoming, the Reds turned off.
Rolando Rodriguez and his mom, Elizabeth were the other lucky anglers yesterday morning, they both landed nice Reds. Rolando was using pieces of cut mullet on the outgoing tide to land his oversized C/R Red. Elizabeth's Red was in the slot at 26.5", she was using live pinfish to land hers. They took a quick photo of Rolando's Red and lowered it back into the water by net. Rolando reported the few Reds were the only thing biting, thanks! Nice handling of the C/R Red!
Photo one is Don Weller's 25" Red photo two is of Rick Jablonski's 26" Red.
