Lots of big upcoming surf fishing opportunities for the Space Coast!

Hurricane Florence bore down on the east coast last week and we can still feel lingering effects of high swells to Space Coast’s beaches. Most surf fisherman have been forced to resort to the Cape Jetty or Sebastain Inlet to catch that slot snook! As for me, I rarely take part in that fiasco and would rather take the time to get ready for the coming fall mullet run and Pompano season! Let’s just cross our fingers in hopes that these forming weather patterns don’t ruin it for us this year…

Mullet as far as you can see!

Every year when the mullet start to run, the beaches at and around the jetty’s and along our beaches will start to explode and thrive with mullet in the coming weeks! Right behind the mullet you can be sure to find the larger predators coming in and exploding on these bait fish! Snook, Red fish, mackerel, Blue fish and Tarpon just to name a few! The surf fishing action is jammed pack when it’s on! And when it’s on.. It’s ON!

Come on, Cooler Weather!

During my down time from targeting Pompano from the surf, you can usually catch me tying up Pompano Riggs, pouring and powder-coating Pompano jigs, and raking sand fleas to blanch off for the coming season! Also, making sure my reels have been serviced and are up to par is a necessity! My main focus is to try and get ahead of the game! Don’t wait till last minute to buy something if you know it sells out during season!

I know having the right bait when targeting Pompano is KEY to the rest of your success fishing that day! Going into your local tackle dealer, you can purchase what fish bites in the scents and colors you will be needing for the coming season. For this, I highly recommend Strike-Zone Fishing in Melbourne. They have a GREAT selection in stock and carry my hand tied Pompano Riggs, as well as ALL other terminal tackle for your surf fishing needs! I’ll be discussing power points during my surf fishing seminar On the 27th of this month so don’t miss out! I’ll be raffling off a surf fishing charter as well as a Tsunami Airwave Surf Rod 12”, Pompano Riggs by Couture and Fishbites to name a couple! As well as plenty of giveaways! If you wanna learn more about the in and outs of surf fishing along our beautiful space coast we encourage you to sit in on this one! Will see you there!

See You at the Seminar!

I’ll be holding a seminar at Strike Zone in Melbourne on September 27th 6-8pm. At this event, I’ll discussing the coming Pompano season and fall mullet run. I’ll be covering what baits are best to help stand out to these predator fish, the proper tackle and how to use it, tides, and other helpful tips!
