From Henry @ Snook-Nook - Jensen Beach

Finally three days with out a jacket, now lets work on this wind, I am ready for summer. Yes, I want that warm quiet surf even if I can’t catch a Pompano. Finally this week we had Pompano on the beach, no special time they were just in and eating. Had anglers reporting catch's in the mid morning thru late afternoon, from the long cast anglers to the guys that fish up close they caught Pompano. Clams and sand fleas were the favorites with every one taking home three or four and that is a lot better than the week before. Blue fish were with us till late afternoon and the Whiting allday, only heard of one Snook but summer is coming, lets hope for next week.Anglers drifting around in the Inlet found plenty of big Mac’s with a mix of Blues and yes a few Pompano. Cut bait on a 3/0 long shank hook sure caught a bunch of the toothy critters, no need to go out of the Inlet if the Macs were your target there was plenty right there. Every anglers commented on the activity in the Inlet, it was solid Macs thru the day. River was run over by the Mac’s, Roosevelt bridge, marker 19#, the Causeways on north to the Power plant and beyond, lots of Macs. The fish moved in waves, you could see them coming, jumping and swirling and eating every thing in sight. If it moved or flashed they were on it, that flash minnow jig, got-cha, small spoons and cut baits took their toll. These were big Mac’s anglers all commented on their size, four were plenty. Trout bite was good all week with most in the slot using suspending lures then the Mac’s showed up. Reds made a good show early again till the Mac’s came through. Sheep head and Drum at the causeways again till the Mac’s came through and if the Pompano wanted to show which they did the Mac’s run them off also, lots of Macs no mater where you were fishing. Only solution was to move because that is what all the fish did, get out of their way. This week should be a good week for Snook, after the cold turned them off this warmer temps will wake them up. It has been a week of slow fishing for the line siders and it is time for them to eat, pick abridge after sun down and please do not bring a knife to a gun fight.
