07-08-13 MONDAY: JACKS, SPANISH MACKEREL, BONITO, MANGROVE SNAPPER, REDS AND PERMIT
We have a gorgeous morning at the inlet. Winds are blowing out of the East-Northeast at 3 mph and the water has a moderate chop. The water temperature is warming up again. We recommend insect repellent, sun screen and lots of water if you head to the inlet today.
Tommy Turowski of the Sebastian Inlet Bait and Tackle Shop reported that over the weekend a good variety of fish were landed. A lot of Jacks, quite a few Mangrove Snapper; some were small and returned to the water but there were also quite a few in the slot. The regulations state that Mangrove Snapper must be a minimum of 10" with a bag limit of 5 per day per person. Spanish Mackerel and Bonito were active over the weekend and big Reds and big Permit were in play as well. A few anglers that were casting poppers for Redfish ended up with Permit instead.
Our angler of the day is Hans Sharp of Jupiter. Hans was fishing the north side of the north jetty using mojarra when he hooked up with this nice 38" C/R Snook. The Snook was released unharmed right after the photo.
