didn't think I would fish this week.. with the neap tides and the Fiesta 10K race on Saturday.... but when the winds came up this morning.. I was heading for the beach... Navarre.. that is....
got out there about 10 and caught fleas... mostly smaller variety tho probably 8 large ones...
caught 7 fish... all above 12"... one was mauled by a shark or King on the way to the beach.. so I sent it back for completion...
the fish were a mix.. 3 smaller... three large-average... no miracle holes or special techniques... done by 1:45pm..
did lose a 2oz spider weight to Blues... it was doing well in the heavy surf and winds... but the blues cut it off.. didn't touch the baited hooks...
I am done with the spider weights...

| caught 5 this morning... the surf was stirred up terribly muddy.... waded thru many catfish to get them... the best bite seemed btw 8:45 and 10:30... one 16.5" and another slightly smaller... had dead shrimp to begin tho the Pompano were caught on fleas... also slot Red, too many blues and a cow-nosed ray.. the water cleared after 11am but the bite disappeared.. it was a beautiful day..

| Went out this morning and got nada pomps. Caught a bunch of small sharks and too many dang hard-heads. Oh well, it's better than working. Gonna have to start traveling mean and lean so I can run and gun the pomp holes.

| When yu are pompano fishing you run through all kinds of rigging set ups. make your own and see which one wks best... I'm still learning how to figure it out..This one is home made loop knot using leftovers from walmart pompano rigs I used last year... the one in the pic is 30lb fluorocarbon with a #1 circle hook. Sometimes you put beads alone ....sometimes you dont pu't anything, sometimes you use a floater sometimes you don't...that all depends on water conditions, etc...this is very solid rig, so it won't brake easy if you get a big blue or red.... ..caught three pomps and 3 baby sha | | | |
