Cool mornings, warm days, polite water, what else can I say, I love this place. Still plenty of bait both inshore and off, lots of fish, so lets go get one or two. The mornings have been the time at the surfs edge, plenty of bait and plenty of fish. this weeks catch list was long with Blues, Mac’s, Jacks, Snook, Tarpon, Whiting and Spinners, a lot of fish form most locations only difference has been time but fish all day. Early for most but it is the surf and tide can make a difference, only constant has been the Spinner Sharks with late afternoon through the evening being their time. Beat part is they are all in casting range, if it looks like a mullet has flash about it cast it and hang on. Whiting have been up close but be careful the Jacks will come just as close difference being the Jacks will take your equipment home. Did not hear a lot about Tarpon this week and I am not sure if the anglers are tiered or the bulk of the fish have moved, how many days can you get beat buy a fish before you say this is a young mans sport. Eight foot rod combo with a 3/4oz spoon and you are ready, come on down.
River anglers are just buying bait not asking where to go and that tells me there is plenty of fish. Lots of big Jacks and Blues are cruising the river and neither are picky eaters so Kayak anglers beware. Still plenty of top of the slot Reds and Trout from County line road north east or west side,early is best but we have had reports all day, live bait or artificial fish are hungry. Still Tarpon rolling just no young anglers to play with but the Snook have been big just pick a bridge after sun down and please do not bring a knife to the gun fight. Bridges have all of the above plus Black Drum and Snapper, even a few Pompano made the list, makes it hard to pick our spot.
