I was up earlier than normal fully motivated to let some fish know that we weren’t playing games today. Then I got to the boat dock…feel free to write this down. The letter “I,” the letter “D,” the number “10” and the letter “T.” After donkeying about trying to figure out why I was ready to donate my motor to the sandy bottom, I realized that turning the fuel line off last night was the culprit. Yeah, that guy.

Woke up quick, at about noon… It’s been a busy past few weeks working and I finally got the chance to sleep in and fish. Perfect. The bite started out pretty slow with a single small snook and a catfish using gulf shrimp in grey. Glass minnows were everywhere so I went with a twitch bait, nothing. I could hear bait getting busted on deep in the mangroves, so I went back to gulp, but this time a Grey Curley tail. Skipped a few under and SLAM. Hooked up on a nice 22” red. A few casts later and I hit a 20” snook.

Was working a retention to brackish water are when a buddy of mine hooked this. I believe it to be a Striped mojarra, but I’ve never seen one this size. They were everywhere.

Again in between jobs I stopped off on the north side of the Cape/Cocoa Beach hospital bridge and threw some gulp shrimp in new penny. 15 minutes and 30 fish later I decided I better go do what I was in the area to actually do and bolted. If your looking to put your youngsters on their first fish it’s a great spot.

Hit the 192 bridges last night and noticed that this red moss/crap has started to form around the shoreline. Stuff is thick. Couldn’t throw but a few cast before I gave up reeling in piles of this stuff. Went down to the beach and conditions were excellent. A guys there was consistently catching whiting, but stated the fleas were hard to come bye. Conditions weather wise look great. Hope to see some reports.

Hit old dirt docks at around 5am this morning. Oddly enough, nobody was there. Hit the eastern shoreline and the bite was one fire. First cast produced a 19in red, the very next 3 cast were Trout ranging from 14-20in. On the hunt for a snook with some size, I started pitching some live finger mullet, which were so abundant that my first cast with the net was all I needed.

Hit the Cape Canaveral Hospital bridges for a few minutes in between jobs Im working. Threw gulp in green and literally caught a fish a cast. Nothing over 15in, but as other reports have stated, it’s great to see the fish population exploding. Have a great Holiday. Be safe.

Hit Christens Landing and worked John’s Fish Camp. The main river bank on the east side at dawn was my best producer. Hit 3 nice 20-24 inch snook on topwater before daylight took over working […]
