NOV. 1, 05 FISHING

WELL IT HAS BEEN WIND AND WEATHER AND MORE WIND. WILMA MANAGED TO GET THE NORTH WALL ON THE SECOND FLOOR OFF, WE WERE HERE AND WERE ABLE TO CONTROL THE DAMAGE, YES WE ARE OPEN. NOT ONE BUT TWO OF MY "FAVORITE" SAIL BOATS TOOK OUT THE DOCK, AGAIN. I THINK NEXT YEAR BEFORE HURRICANE SEASON I’LL JUST SINK THEM, AND WELL CALL IT DAMAGE CONTROL AND NO THE OWNERS HAVE NOT STEPED UP TO THE PLATE, SCUMBAGS. FINALLY TO DAY THE SUN IS SHINING THE WIND IS FROM THE NORTH WEST AND IT LOOKS A LOT LIKE THE FLORIDA WE LOVE.

COOL SNAP HAS MOVED THE WATER TEMPS WAY DOWN AND THAT JUST ADDS THE WINTER FISH TO THE SUMMER FISH THAT HAVENOT LEFT, LOTS OF FISH.

SURF ANGLERS THIS WEST WIND WILL PUSH THE SEAS FLAT THE ALLOW THE WATERS TO LOOSE THE TURBITY CAUSED BY THE STORM. IT IS TIME FOR THE BLUES, POMPANO AND MACKEREL TO MOVE IN THE TEMPS ARE PERFECT. STILL LOTS OF FLEAS ON THE BEACH FOR THE POMPANO FANS, BLUES, MAC’S WILL HIT SPOONS AND CUT BAITS. SNOOK ARE STILL ON THE EDGE, FEW TARPON ROLLING BUT THE BLUE FISH AND JACKS JUST SEEM TO GET THERE FIRST.

MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE INLET THIS WEEK END, THIS COLD FRONT WILL START THE SAIL FISH SEASON AND WITH THE BITE WE HAVE HAD ALL SUMMER IT SHOULD BE ONE GREAT SEASON. THE DOLPHIN AND FLOTSAM JUST GO TOGETHER AND THESE STORMS SURE BRING IN THE STUFF. BOATERS KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN EVERY THING FROM TREES TO BOATS IS FLOATING OUT THERE. THE DAYS AFTER THE STORMS ARE ALWAYS BEST, I BELIEVE THE STRONG CURRENT STIR UP THE BOTTOM BRING ING EVERY THING TO THE SURFACE. SHOULD BE A GREAT WEEK END FOR THE BLUE WATER ANGLERS. START AT THE FIRST THING YOU FIND FLOATING. FROM AMBER JACKS TO WAHOO THEY WILL BE FEEDING.

RIVER ANGLERS THE EAST SIDE HAS BEEN THE ZONE NOT EVEN THE FISH WENT TO THE WEST SIDE, WIND. STILL LOTS OF MULLET AND LOTS OF BIG TROUT, FIVE POUNDS PLUS. THE FLOUNDER BITE ALSO IS EXCELLENT; ANGLERS ARE CATCHING FISH UP TO SEVEN POUNDS, NOT IN NUMBERS BUT ALL ANGLERS ARE TAKING ONE HOME SO THEY MUST BE THERE IN GOOD NUMBERS. THE JENSEN CWY IS CLOSED FOR STORM DAMAGE REPAIR SHOULD BE OPEN BY THE WEEK END. JC PARK IS OPEN AND THAT’S OK BECAUSE THE TROUT, RED FISH AND FLOUNDER BITE IS RIGHT THERE, USE YOUR FAVORED BAITS THE FISH ARE HUNGRY. SNOOK AT ANY BRIDGE, FISH DEEP AND BLUE FISH WILL LEAVE YOU ALONE. LOTS OF JACKS, LADY FISH, AND BIG SHEEP HEAD, AND STILL THE TARPON ARE ROLLING. WADERS, SMALL BOATERS, FLY, ARTIFICAL AND LIVE BAIT ANGLERS ARE CATCHING NOT JUST FISHING. FINALLY THE PIER AT INDIAN RIVER SIDE PARK IS OPEN; LOTS OF SAND PEARCH, BIG SHEEPHEAD AND SNOOK TOP THE CATCH LIST FROM THE PIER.

TILL NEXT WEEK CATCH A BUNCH……………………

NOV. 21, 05 FISHING

BRRRRRR, FIRST DAY OF THE COLD SNAP. WELL THE SEASON HAS CHANGED, IN THE FIFTY’S THIS MORNING WITH A HIGH IN THE MID SEVENTYS, WINTER IS ON US. OK, IT IS COOL AND ALL THE WINTER FISH ARE HERE, BLUES, POMPS, AND SAILS IN GOOD NUMBERS. THE UP SIDE IS EIGHTYS IS THE FORCAST FOR THE WEEK END, I LOVE THIS PLACE.

SURF HAS SETTLED AFTER WEEKS OF STORM AND STRONG WIND STURRING UP TURBITY. THE SURF TEMPRATURE HAS DROPPED AND THE BLUE FISH HAVE MOVED IN. THREE POUND BLUE FISH, FUN TO CATCH AND EXCELLENT TABLE FARE. YES THEY TASTE LIKE FISH BUT NOT STRONG LIKE THE BLUES FROM THE NORTH. THE BEST PART OF BLUE FISH IS, IF IT FLASHS, DASHS, OR HAS A SCENT ABOUT IT THEY EAT IT. A PIECE OF CUT BAIT, SPOON, AND TOPWATER LURE A FLY WITH SOME MYLARE IN IT THESE FISH WILL BE ON IT. WHAT EVER YOUR STYLE OF FISHING IS THE BLUES WILL KEEP YOU BUSY. POMPANO FOR THAT LONGER CAST, THESE FISH DO NOT LIKE THE TURBID WATER, LOOK FOR THE COLOR CHANGE AND THEY WILL BE RIGHT AT THE EDGE. SAND FLEAS TOP THE LIST FOR BAIT, MOST OTHER FISH WILL SWIM PAST A FLEA, POMPANO WILL NOT. BOTH SPECIES ARE IN AND OUT ALL DAY, SO YOU PICK THE TIME. STILL A FEW SNOOK ON THE EDGE, CATCH THE HIGH TIDE AND SLOW YOUR BAITS DOWN. YES, THE SPANISH MAC’S ARE IN.

INDIAN RIVER IS LOOKING REAL GOOD, STILL A FEW SUNK BOATS AND TWISTED DOCKS BUT BACK TO NORMAL. TROUT BITE IS VERY GOOD, THE SEASON IS CLOSED AND THEY KNOW IT. NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER IS THE CLOSED SEASON, NEVER CAUGHT A FISH WITH A POCKET CALENDER BUT THEY KNOW. POMPANO HAVE MADE A GREAT SHOW IN THE RIVER, SKIPPING IN THE WAKE OF YOUR BOAT, YOU CAN SEE THEM SO CIRCLE THE AREA AND DRIFT BACK THROUGH THE ZONE, EASY CATCH. ELEVEN INCHES TO THE FORK, SIX IS THE BAG AND THE RIVER POMPS ARE ALL GOOD SIZE. FROM THE BRIDGES USE THE JIGGING SPOONS AND NYLURES, IF THE WATER IS MOVING THEY WILL BE THERE. RED FISH AND FLOUNDER IN GOOD NUMBERS, REDS IN THE SLOT AND FLOUNDER UP TO SIX POUNDS FROM TO MANY LOCATIONS TO LIST, VERY STRONG SHOW. SNOOK DEEP AROUND ARE BRIDGE, DARK HOUR IS BEST. JACKS, MAC’S AND BLUES ROUND IT OFF, LOTS OF FISH. YOU MAY NOT GET THE SPECIES YOU ARE TARGETED ON BUT THE ACTION IS EXCELLENT.

OFF-SHORE THIS MAY BE THE FIRST WEEK END IN MANY THAT ANGLERS CAN GET OUT. WE HAD THE SKA MASTERS TOURNAMENT CALLED, THE STUART SAIL FISH TOURNAMENT CALLED, THE SEAS HAVE BEEN OUT OF CONTROL. ALL HAS SETTLED AND THE REPORTS OF SAILS HAVE STARTED. THE BITE STARTED AT EIGHTY FEET YESTERDAY, TWO FISH AND THEN TWO ON ANOTHER BOAT AT ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY FEET. LOOK FOR A COLOR LINE AND STAY ON IT. MOVE FROM ONE TO THE OTHER, BAITS MAY NOT CROSS THE LINE BUT SAIL FISH WILL. STILL EARLY TO MAKE ANY CALL ON THE DOLPHIN BUT THE SPANISH HAVE STARTED TO MOVE INTO THE PECKS LAKE AREA. WITH THE WEATHER SETTLING DOWN NEXT WEEK WE SHOULD HAVE MORE FOR THE OFF SHORE AND REEF ANGLERS.
