Orlando no fishing report
My fantasy of big tarpon off Cocoa Beach this week has not been realized. I spent most of the week getting ready for a (hopefully) quick fling with Irma.
I had four days booked next week- all have been cancelled. I hope to at least get out on my own, but am taking a wait-and-see to evaluate how much damage the storm causes to local infrastructure and my own property.
In the meantime I’ve put a photo essay together of Florida East Coast fishing this time of year, recorded in years past. Fishing along our beaches truly can be world class. That will have to do…
The mullet will be running after the storm passes. Finding mullet may mean…
…tarpon!!!
There will be sharks out there, too. Lots of them.
There may be shrimp boats working out there.
Balls of bay anchovies attract all kinds of attention.
Finding little tunny working…
…almost always leads to…
…some memorable catches!
Pompano on a Gotcha.
Rodney uses a bluefish to make a point.
Bluefish will get thick. These two wanted the same Gotcha.
Other fish we run into this time of year include…
…snook;
…Spanish mackerel, lots of them;
…and redfish, usually big ones.
That is this week’s Orlando no fishing report! Thanks for reading!
Life is great and I love my work!
Life is short- Go Fishing!
