Got out for some fun fishing with my dad and our friend/marina worker Vic. We were after snook for the most part and had some epic fishing for them, landing a bunch including a couple jumbos in the 36-37 inch range. But we had a lot of tarpon busting around us too and we managed to cast and get one on a pinfish. Dad did the job on a nice little 25 lber. There were definitely some larger fish in the mix too and I think if you were really targetting them a bit more you would’ve had some activity. September and October can be very good fishing, it almost felt to me like we were getting a touch of fall today as the air was a hair cooler and seemed to be a good amount of bait around back there. Next week looks like a lot of northeast wind and I think with the hurricane last week and this northeast breeze, that may get the fall bait run started early for a bit. 1 for 2
