Post Hurricane Irene Fishing Report |
Thankfully hurricane Irene bypassed the Space Coast this time around and as of the last report is heading towards New York city via the outer banks of North Carolina.
The weather around Titusville late this afternoon felt like the calm after the storm. The air temperature hovered around 88 degrees and there was very little wind on the water.
My wife and I packed up our fishing rods and Elmo our wonder dog for a brief fishing excursion around the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge.
We didn't hit the water until about 7:00 p.m. and the water where we began fishing was dead calm.
There was very little visible fish activity in the first area we stopped to fish but it looked "fishy" and I was aching to try out a couple of new top water plugs.
I started fishing a 100 yard stretch of very shallow water that led into a saltwater pond which usually holds a redfish or two and only got two strikes for my efforts.
My wife was fishing with a dead shrimp and I was "walking the dog" using my new black and silver
Heddon Super Spook Jr. top water plug I picked up at Bass Pro.
Karen wasn't getting any action so we moved up the road a bit to try the brackish water pond.
