06-23-15 TUESDAY: MANGROVE SNAPPER, LOOKDOWNS, REDS, C/R SNOOK, JACKS AND SPADEFISH
We have a real nice summer morning at the inlet. Winds are blowing out of the South at 8 mph, gusting to 12 and there is a light chop on the water. We have cloud cover this morning which is making our anglers a little more comfortable. It's still hot and humid out there, but the sun isn't beating up our anglers (yet).
Mangrove Snapper have been ruling the "table fare" from the inlet jetties and beaches. Anglers can use live shrimp, cut shrimp, greenies, small crabs and lures to entice these feisty fish. Once hooked, they can put up a fun fight. Oversized Reds have been giving anglers a good workout and the evening hours are fooling C/R Snook into biting. The water has been very clear and those smart fish are hard to fool during daylight hours. A small number of Lookdowns, Atlantic Spadefish and a single Blue Runners will show up on the end of a line.
Our angler of the day is Ashley Hill of Winter Haven. Ashley landed this big C/R Snook from the south jetty over the weekend. The big Snook has released unharmed right after the photo.
