Finally something other then a north wind....today it has shifted to the east and may being still shifting to a little south of east as the day goes on...fisherman know the southeast is the best wind for the pier

the water is still clear and we have some fishing size waves...temp 72

yesterday saw a big increase in the daily catch..had a good run of bonito, still acres of skipjack, along with spanish, reds, blues, pompano, and flounder

all in all a good day of fishing

Sand

The beach and sandbars are changing daily...It will be interesting to see where they finally end up

weather almost no change still a north wind which knocks down any waves and crystal clear water

yesterdays catch was kind of light again a few Spanish skipjack and reds.

water temp

This cold snap has dropped the water temperature to 73...we still have clear and calm seas with a light chilly north wind

not many fishers but they did report catches of skipjack and reds

Tuesday, October 25, 2005

Cold

Weather conditions the same...Cold north wind that keeps the waves down and clear water

the beach is still growing another 100 feet added over night

no fish were reported yesterday...One of the reasons, not very many hard core fishers were out

Windy

Feels like winter is here...We have a strong north wind which is bringing down the temperature....Wind has knocked down all the waves, so it is flat and clear

yesterdays catch was again on the small side, just a few flounder, Spanish and blues

Sunday, October 23, 2005

Cool

Our first of many cool nights....The wind is out of the north and we have some nice waves and swells....Water is still very clean

not much action yesterday a few Spanish, flounder, and blues

the sand bars have moved again..We gained 30-40 feet of beach sand overnight

cool

Our first of several cool nights....still have the dreaded north wind, good waves and swells, and clean water

yesterdays catch not much just a few spanish, blues and flounder

overnight the beach grew by 30-40 feet the sandbars have moved and will continue to move can make for some interesting fishing

Finally a small change in the weather.....today we still have the clear water but the wind has finally shifted to the south and some small waves...this should really help fishing if it holds for a day or two
