Dirty, Weedy Fun in the Surf
Man, the past few weeks have been wild with all the spring breakers crowding the beaches, but it’s finally about to calm down for us locals for a month or so… at least until the summer crowd rolls in.

I hope everyone is doing well and had a good week of fishing. The beachside has been dirty due to the southeast winds, but this week, the winds are expected to shift to north-west most days. Fishing has been pretty slow, with not much consistent action.
This week looks to be a choppy, sloppy week for surf fishing, but it’s still a fishable condition for everyone with the right tackle.
Hope everyone is doing well and had a chance to get out and fish this past week! The fishing has been steady, with plenty of black drum, whiting, a few pompano and palometas showing up.
The fishing picked up well in the middle of last week when the water temperatures rose, and it was great to have good weather added into the equation.
Hope everyone got out and fished this past week—the weather was beautiful! The fishing was still a bit slow for most, but it was definitely better than it has been.
Is the weather finally warming up a little this week? It’s been COLD the past couple of weeks, and neither the fish nor the fishermen have been enjoying it! Fishing on the beach has been slow, with the fish acting lethargic due to the chilly water temperatures.
This time of year, it’s always hit or miss. We’ve seen lots of baby sharks, bluefish, and whiting, with the occasional pompano joining the party if they decide to show up.
The past couple of weeks have been kind of rough, with only a few fishable days and a lot of dirty water mixed with weeds along the south Satellite beaches throughout Melbourne. Cape Canaveral and Cocoa beaches have had little to no weeds, but the water there has still been dirty, with very rough conditions.
Fishing has been steady this past week with whiting, small batches of pompano and bluefish showing up in the first and second troughs. The water has been fairly clean, though there’s been a noticeable current pushing rigs around. Waves have been relatively calm compared to previous weeks.
