05-30-14 FRIDAY: TGIF!
It's another pretty morning at the inlet. Winds are blowing out of the East-Southeast at 6 mph and gusting to 9. There is a light chop on the water. The weekend forecast looks pretty good, mid 80's with a mix of sun and clouds, and of course a chance of rain. Will it happen, who knows? Be sure to take lots of water and sunscreen if you head to the inlet over the weekend.
This morning, Jose Dore of Palm Bay landed a 36" C/R Snook off the north jetty and it didn't get eaten by the Goliaths lurking under the north jetty. That's one for the anglers although the Goliaths remain ahead. Snook are visible but not too interested in eating; they are more interested in spawning now. Saturday is the last day to go for a slot Snook, the season will close June 1st for spawning season and reopen September 1st. , until then they will be strictly catch and release. It's best not to target them during this time. Jetty fishing has been slow, this morning a Black Margate and a Snapper came over the rails, but that was about it for the early morning hours.
Anglers have been having decent luck fishing the Indian River Lagoon and offshore. Docks and Mangroves have been holding Snook, Reds and Trout.
Our photo features Mark Gargano of West Melbourne with a Lookdown he landed from the T-Dock , using live shrimp. This was Mark's first Lookdown, but not his first fish.
