This week the surf layed down and the water got nice and clean. In north Brevard and Volusia County, the whiting bite has been pretty steady with the best bite coming in the late afternoon with the tide change (incoming). Much like it has been, live sandfleas and fresh dead shrimp continue to be the bait of choice. Pompano are still in the area also but have been running deep, so 100+ yard casts have been the key. I did get word that there have been some large schools of pompano in the river and close to the inlet.
The winter flounder and sheepshead are gathered up around the rocks of the inlet and the piers. Live crabs, and sandfleas on a Carolina rig for the sheepshead head and finger mullet and jigs slow bounced off the bottom for the flounder.
