Jupiter ANOTHER non sword report

iriesoul · 04-12-2008, 09:29 PM

Set out last night around the usual spots of Palm beach. Had 2 hits around 11 or so north of most of the structure in 1300 or so. Ran back south re set and did another drift until the moon set. NOTHING on this drift. We saw some baot come through finally when the moon set but no fish. Talked to another guy out there who had one fish on and lost him but all and all very slow. I have a feeling if they were out ther last night maybe they were in shallow feeding on all those schooly dolphin that were aroun 900 or 800 anyone else do anything? Snook were STACKED UP at slack tide around 3 am when we came in. Busting on shrimp and a few lonesome sardines around the us 1 bridge and the docks north of the indian town bridge. I hope the swords turn on soon!!!!!

I hope it this will pass and they'll start biteing again... If not Who should we blame it on? Long liners...Day timers...

When you run out of PB how far south do you run before youset lines out? Also how far north do you drift before you pick-up and run to reset? Thanks in advance-Jeff

we boated a small fish in the afternoon. LHP marina reported another boat landing a 297 pound fish.

Went 0/2 last night, PE to Boca. Had a freight train on at around 11:45 and another one pulling for a while at around 2:00. Wish I knew how these guys got off - not a second of slack - just gone . . . .

What was the moon like? The last couple reports I've seen in our area are people fishing shallow. I think the fish are out deeper personally, but who knows cause these fish have tails.

I just hope the weather stays good for a couple days at a time.

I was pumped to go Friday evening, & last minute scrapped the sword trip.

Decided to troll some dorado. Turned out to be the right move as we caught our limit of 10 -12lb fish in less than two hours.

I guess the Nothing Drift strikes again!

it was a quarter moon. I go out of palm beach just a few miles south. we have caught fish all the way up to st. lucie inlet. My biggest fish was caught north of Jupiter inlet. I have heard that the maj. of the fish being caught were on the east side of the gulf stream lately. I dunno....
