02-18-15 WEDNESDAY: SNOOK, TROUT, SHEEPSHEAD BUT NOT IN HUGE NUMBERS
We have significant cloud cover over the inlet this morning. Winds are blowing out of the Northwest at 14 mph, gusting to 24 and there is a moderate chop on the water. NOAA has issued a small craft advisory for winds through Thursday afternoon. It's a real chilly morning and we expect it to be cool over the next couple of days.
Fishing remains hit or miss. We have had a few nice fish but they have been landed by the more patient angler. The new moon is bringing us extreme tides and according to the "Farmer's Almanac" February 18 - March 5th are going to be good fishing days and it goes on to say that fish tend to feed more during high tide periods. Even though the winds are frustrating anglers with tangled lines, use a little heavier tackle and get out there and wet a line!
Our photo today features Ko Chang who landed this big, C/R 39" Snook using live pig fish to land this beautiful Snook that was released unharmed after the photo.
