05-27-15 WEDNESDAY: LOOKDOWNS, MANGROVE SNAPPER, REDS AND JACKS
We have hot, dry wind blowing out of the East-Southeast at 15 mph, gusting to 18 this morning and the water is choppy. NOAA has issued an advisory for small craft to exercise caution.
Inlet anglers are dealing with a lot of seaweed in the water which can tangle lines and make fishing difficult. We received an update from Mike Ricciardi of Vero Beach who fished the north jetty yesterday morning. Mike reported that a lot of Lookdowns were landed by anglers using small, white jigs. Mangrove Snapper were in play, Mike landed two and several others came over the rails as well. Jose Dore of Palm Bay landed an oversized Red that was returned to the water. Thanks Mike!
Mike Ricciardi fished the outgoing tide from 8 - 12:30 and reported a lot of 3 - 5 lb. Jacks coming over the rails, a few Blues, and a couple of Spots were landed. Mike and another inlet regular, Tommy Ngo landed the only two Reds of the morning. The oversized Reds were both 32" and were released right after the photos.
