Sporadic Fishing Action shows that when the fish want to bite they will bite; and when the fish don’t want to bite, WELL they just don’t (but then you have the hard-heads!!). This past week gave credence to the Rollover Pass epitaph of “When the Pass is good, IT’S GOOD; and when the Pass is bad, IT’S BAD”. I guess Spring vacation includes the fish population as well. (Special Note: Check Miss Nancy’s Bait Camp on Face Book for daily fish photos update)
Speckled Trout
When they want to play they will play!! Most guesses as to where the trout disappeared to: ranged from maybe spawning -to- too full of finger mullet to bite -to- went north with the snow birds. BUT they will be back anglers; the trout are still here but just aren’t hungry yet.
(Limit: 15 inch minimum for 10 trout with only one 25 inch trout per day allowed as part of your daily limit)
Redfish (Red Drum)
A few slot reds in the cut with bulls roaming the surf.
(Limit: 20 inch minimum to 28 inch maximum for 3 reds per day – one over 28 inch red -plus bonus red- allowed when properly tagged in addition to your 3 fish limit)
Black Drum
The drum run is still on but it’s a weak run.
(Limit: 14 inch minimum to 30 inch maximum for 5 fish per day with one OVER 52 inches allowed)
