Went out friday late afternoon evening. couldn't castnet bait was able to sabiki up a few, lots of huge threadfins. Landed to short grouper. that was it.
Sunday went out early bait was nowhere, just large threads. Caught 1 12" snaper, That was it Water is very tanic from all the rain, hopefully it will clear up soon.
Ran in to Fishonfishoff, didn't sound like he was doing much better

yea me and Allison got bored today and headed to the north pier round 4pm.. my goal was just to net up bait for the chum grinder. But was tough to come by.. Allison played with the pigfish while i wore myself out tossing the net.. stayed till 930pm and left with about 100 threadfins, and scaled sardines.. There just too deep for the net it seems.. probably 100 throws for 100, pieces of bait.

the water was dirty from the rain runoff. not too much bait around except for large threadfins. we did manage a keeper trout and a 22" spanish. lots of short grouper. also had 2 tarpon runs that went directly into the pilings. the guy next to us caught a 4 foot blacktip and a fella at the end of the pier hooked a tarpon about 100 pounds. he got 3 good jumps before it shook the hook loose.

Sounds like I didnt miss much. You think with as shallow as the water is at the pier(s), that the water just may be too warm?
Im debating right now if I even wanna try the beach in the morning. Might wait til the weekend, even though Im having fishing withdrawals....

i think there must have been some sort of weird pressure front or something following the rains last week. Cuz i was talking with another guy this weekend that said he heard it would be great fishing only wed and thurs last week. Said he and some kids were catching snook on every cast thursday nite. And i did pretty darn good with the snapper also. But after that barely even a bite the rest of the weekend, altho it did seem like it might have been picking back up yesterday
