The heat did me in again this summer but, I still got to the beach on several mornings. Early and late was the tactic during September and it produced a snook dinner or two. Live mullet and plugs caught snook and the standard pompano rig caught whiting and croakers. Brevard - John DetmerOct 2nd, 2015

anuary was a good month for those who got out and braved the weather fronts. Pompano and black drum showed up with whiting and blues mixed in for a good run of surf fishing. Sand fleas were present on the beaches from Cocoa Beach to Sebastian Inlet. One day I watched a fellow catch a 5 gallon bucket of sand fleas in about 2 hours just by walking up and down the beach and catching them as he went along. There will come a time this winter when anglers will be willing to trade a good rod and reel for a cupful of sand fleas.Brevard EditionFeb 1st, 2015
Welcome to January and a brand new year of surf fishing the Brevard County Coastline. I am expecting good catches of pompano and bluefish during this month punctuated by a number of cold fronts. I do think the January fishing will be much different from Decembers’ in weather or surf fishing conditions. Watch for the cold fronts coming through followed by warming periods. If you can track the fronts you can be a successful angler during this time. Anglers fishing before and after the fronts manage to take home many
fish dinners.Brevard EditionDec 30th, 2014
