We don’t have tons to report on since the days that we had opportunities to fish were less than desirable. We were met on two occasions with harsh north winds, swell and dirty surf. Great for catching catfish and managing drifty conditions but not ideal for catching fish like whiting, pompano, etc.

As the season begins to turn into the summertime pattern, fishing will slowly begin to shift from targeting pompano and whiting into targeting whiting, croakers, jacks and palometas which are typically more available during the warmer months. We have been testing out the tail lift sinkers from Redfin fishing and they hold extremely well, we have found that their standard 4oz Sputnik holds better than any other 4oz Sputnik on the market. Now with this being said, as we all know during summer the surf is pretty calm, so don’t shoot yourself in the foot by using the wrong type of lead! I prefer banks and pyramids or at the least Sputniks with the legs turned up.

Hope this helps out a little this season and happy fishing everyone!
