| Your Fishing Report: If this is a tournament report do not state the fish’s length in this box. State the length and species in the box below | Had a couple hours to spare… saw there was an outgoing tide in the afternoon, and I knew there wasFull Moon coming tomorrow – that meant the tide was gonna be frisky.Picked up a dozen pin fish and ran down to Fred Howard – yup the tide was moving pretty good.Trout bite was fast and furious – hooked up a 16 inch’er right off the bat, then the big fatty was next.Struggled for the next hour having to toss back Trout after Trout because they were all plus 19”, had to return ‘em back to the water.Non-the less we are good to go for Friday date night and Fish Tacos, even with just the two Trout,I’ll circle back and catch up with the returnees!Turned my attention to some of the big ol’ Snook hanging out below the bridge – well they won this round as I broke off twice – need to step up from a 30lb leader.Great couple hours, easy pickings – a ‘great time was had by all’Hint – usually need a split shot for a little weight when running a flatline in current– even with pinfish, but especially with Shrimp.But the dang weight would inevitably hang up on rocks and such.Solved that with ‘weighted Circle Hook jigs’ – these kept the pins down in the water column in the tide and did NOT hang up – see pic attached– available on Amazon different weights and sizes. Hook-up % was 100% for the day. |
