10-03-14 FRIDAY: REDS, SNOOK, SPANISH MACKEREL, JACKS AND BLUE RUNNERS
TGIF! The weekend is here and fishing is good! This morning was very hot and humid on the north jetty, but we have a cool down coming on Sunday with very little chance of rain, perfect fishing conditions!
Reds have been giving our inlet anglers a real work out. We've seen some huge fish landed and released. Among those heavies have been quite a few in the slot, 18" - 27". The bag limit for Reds is one per person per day. Finger mullet are thick around the inlet and they have been bringing in a lot of predatory fish. Mangrove Snapper remain active on the incoming tide and anglers using mojarra, menhaden (greenies) or small finger mullet have been having success. Spanish Mackerel, big Jacks and Blue Runners have been chasing and busting up schools of bait. Oversized Snook and a few slot fish, 28" - 32" have been landed by anglers using live shrimp or finger mullet and during low light periods, anglers have had success with bucktails. Tarpon, Barracuda and Sharks are active as well.
Our first photo features Josh with a huge 41" C/R Red, he also landed a nice 23" Speckled Trout. The Red was released unharmed right after the photo.
Photo two is of Efrem with an enormous C/ R Snook, which was released unharmed right after the photo. Efrem also landed a slot Red and some big Jacks and Ladyfish.
Photo three features Rudy with an 18" slot Red, one of two Reds he landed that day. He also landed Jacks, Blues and Ladyfish.
Chad Griffin and his brother Justin, both of Satellite Beach, fished the south beach on Tuesday and between them, landed five Reds. Three were over the slot and two were keepers. Both men were using live finger mullet. Justin landed the largest of the five, a 45" C/R Red that weighed close to 40 lbs. Justin is featured in our fourth photo.
Chad Griffin is featured in our last photo today with a real pretty slot Red with multiple spots.
