FISHING REPORT

They fish when they can
Sunday provided a window of good

fishing weather, and anglers ate it up.

A few offshore boats brought back

decent catches of tuna, snapper and

kingfish, while bay anglers bagged the

usual suspects: Redfish, black drum,

sheepshead and trout.

This next weekend promises another

decent, if chilly, opportunity.

John McNatt at Fisherman’s Wharf

reported nice catches of vermilion snapper,

kingfish and warsaw grouper on a trip

Sunday, Feb. 14. North jetty anglers have

been bringing in nice speckled trout and

some sheepshead, he said.

Scott Garrison at Deep Sea Headquarters

said their long-range trip brought

back blackfin tuna, amberjack and grouper, while shorter trips yielded vermillion

snapper, kingfish, shark and ling.

MaryAnn Heimann at Offshore Adventures

reported that bay anglers are

catching redfish and black drum and big

speckled trout in the shallow water.

John Dunn at Dolphin Dock said anglers

on a 36-hour offshore trip returning

Sunday, Feb. 14, brought in a 362-pound

mako shark, some African pompano,

amberjack and ling. Those who fished

on the state-water trip caught red snapper

and redfish.

Sandra Fudge at Woody’s Sports

Center said bay anglers caught redfish

and black drum at Roberts Point Park.

Jetty anglers caught mostly sheepshead,

while surf anglers caught whiting.
