FISHING MONday
Tammy now works on a charter/commercial fishing boat out of the Port, and she is out fishing most days. When she tells me it’s good, I go (weather permitting). Her report was major Spanish mackerel and tunny action near-shore, perfect for the fly rod. So we went out Monday.

This is what we wanted!

We looked from Cocoa Beach south of the pier to the tip of the cape. We saw a fish here, a fish there, nothing very targetable by fly rod. I got a single tunny on a Sting Silver with the spin rod, and that was it for the day.

Apparently there are some redfish around the jetties, mostly being caught on bait. We did not try.

For some reason I forgot how nasty chiggers are and went for a six mile Florida Trail walk on Tuesday. I pulled a single tick off my hip when I got home.

The chigger bites didn’t really appear until Wednesday, at least fifteen of them, from my ankle to my neck. Chiggers are the gift that keeps on giving. Those bites will be torturing me at least another week.

Not a good idea to go walking in the woods here when the weather is warm!

That’s this week’s short Port Canaveral Nearshore Fishing Report! Thanks for reading!

Life is great and I love my work!

Life is short- Go Fishing!
