It appears that anglers are in for some stormy weather through Saturday if the forecast holds.
Hopefully,
the rain will help improve daytime fishing inshore. Lately, daytime
action has been slow, and for a good chance at catching fish, anglers
are heading offshore. Night fishing under lights has been the better
option for inshore fishing.
The early morning incoming tide has been producing good numbers of specks and reds from around midnight until close to daybreak.
Steve Albrecht took his brother Ray
to the jetties Wednesday where they found the action slow. A small
lemon shark was all they could attract from around the rocks. One of
their next stops was between the old concrete ship, The Selma, and
Seawolf Park. There, the anglers drifted patches of seaweed, and that is
where a couple of monster fish hit, as Albrecht described it.
Steve’s fish took almost all of his line, and during an effort to turn the fish, the leader broke.
A
similar thing happened to Ray’s fish as they attempted to chase it with
the boat but finally lost it. Their tackle just was not suitable for
whatever it was. Neither angler saw his fish.
Live fingerling mullet fished on the bottom was the bait.
Pete Hescock
and his family fished from the lighted dock of the home they are
renting at Pirate’s Cove and caught 12 trout to 18 inches and three
reds, a slot and two throwbacks. The action took place between 1 a.m.
and 3 a.m. on free-lined live shrimp.
Charlie Moore and Bill Best
spent Wednesday night and early Thursday morning flounder gigging in
Christmas Bay. Roaming the islands with lanterns for five hours, the
anglers from Clute managed seven flatfish to 19 inches. Moore said that
there were lots of stingrays buried in the sand, especially around
Christmas Pass.
