Winds are blowing out of the Northeast at 16 mph this morning and the water is choppy.
We received an update from inlet regular Diane Buyce of Melbourne who fished the north jetty yesterday. Diane reported a pretty tough day as getting bait was difficult. Greenies were nowhere to be found and finger mullet were hard to come by as well. One Snook was landed before daylight on finger mullet, Tony Swiderski had good luck with a 25" slot Red and a Mangrove Snapper, Diane landed one Mackerel, Spiro Stathopoulos of Malabar landed one Mangrove Snapper, and one Bluefish came over the rails. That was about all of the action before noon. Diane said the ocean side was dirty and although Spanish Mackerel were out there, they couldn't see the bait. Yesterday afternoon, the incoming tide was very clean and hopefully with the change in wind direction, it will clean up even more.
Our photo today is courtesy of Duc Nguyen of Kissimmee. Duc was using a Zeebaas 22 reel and 20 lb. test to land two huge C/R Bull Reds. The Red in our first photo was 40+ lbs.! We're still waiting to hear if Duc's 54 lb. Red he landed a few months ago beat the Florida record.
