Beach Fishing With Paul Sperco Palm Beach/Martin County Area

                       

Beautiful weather and great surf fishing has been the theme for this Presidents Day holiday weekend. Reports from a number of beaches along Hutchinson Island on Saturday had the whiting, bluefish, and pompano being taken both on the morning and afternoon tides. The biggest challenge of a number of folks looking to bend a rod was trying to find a parking place at various locations. Bob Graham and Bryn Mawr beach areas had a pretty decent pompano bite while to the north, Middle Cove yielded pompano, bluefish, and whiting. Mike and Tania Schulze from Ft Pierce joined my son Randy and I this morning for a surf fishing charter and their first attempt at landing a pompano from the sand. After a quick orientation of casting methods, drag settings, and bait presentation they were off and running and had a nice catch of nine pompano, bluefish, and blue runners. They also got to witness a speedy shark make one of their hooked pompano into a noon time lunch. In the calm clear water this occurence was spectacular. The pompano were favoring plain Fishbites today in the Orange Clam and EZ Flea scents. We also managed to catch a couple on clam strips tipped with Fishbites and the outgoing tide proved to be the time when the bite was at its best. The attached photo only shows eight of the nine pompano because one was hiding in the bottom of the cooler when we spread the fish out. If you are heading out tomorrow, Monday, check any of the beaches from Santa Lucea north and as long as the water stays the nice color it has been, the opportunity to put a few fish in the cooler could come from most any location.
