We got on them good last week off daytona/flagler until the ponce fleet AND the NE FL fleet found out lol. Hope this cold snap spreads them out a bit, anyone going after them? ------------------------- I troll 2L.com to be a better person in real life

Cole Posts: 68401 Joined Forum: 07/22/2003	I saw some boats searching off of Cocoa Beach today, but I skinned it and was warm, so the water has to be in the mid 70's, if not higher. ------------------------- I was right.

(3 smaller ones and one 30#er) a decent king (15#?)... missed some sails and prob small tunas and lil mahi. Had a wahoo (?) chew through the cedar plug leader (SMOKED IT) Finally convinced my buddy to drop on a mark we saw at the end of the day and pulled up about 8 Bee-liners and 2 nice trigs

Then trolled the beach on the way in and got a ton of spanish which was fun ------------------------- I troll 2L.com to be a better person in real life

stokedpanda Posts: 4226 Joined Forum: 09/04/2015	sheepies are good but they have massive ribs so unless you cut through them and pull them out after cooking(which is easy as they are pretty big) you have to go above them which leaves a pretty wimpy fillet IMO. these big ones looked like mini red snapper fillets, they do have some blood close to the skin, so I remove it, but definitely not a "fishy" fish. this little cold blow should make the next fish able days interesting in terms of where they may be! ------------------------- I troll 2L.com to be a better person in real life

Cole Posts: 68401 Joined Forum: 07/22/2003	I doubt it will get cool enough to move back south of the cape, but you guys might get them stacked at the 68 to 70 degree line. ------------------------- I was right.

Plan B Posts: 3302 Joined Forum: 03/08/2004	heard there's been a few but pretty scarce overall....... went offshore saturday. Troll was pretty slow. A few blackfins (and a few stupid fish). Did turn a bonito into some bottom fish later in the day.... I had fun with the Almacos on a darter jig on the spinning rod. We lost a cobe by the boat

stokedpanda Posts: 4226 Joined Forum: 09/04/2015	there have been rays from Ponte vedra to talbot but with the offshore wind they are not cruising up top but playing right in the surf shallow and not many fish on them. My buddy got a few shorts sunday but said most rays didnt have fish, seems they hate the 904 LOL ------------------------- I troll 2L.com to be a better person in real life
