They've Arrived
Message:
Monday afternoon around 12:30pm is when I arrived at the city boat ramp with my 7'6" setup. There was that annoying ridiculous north and northwest wind howling again. I stayed at the boat ramp for no longer than 45 minutes due to the gusty winds blowing the SP-9 in the wrong direction and also making a current on the surface causing the SP-9 to drift. Didn't get any swirls, hits, or explosions anyway. Next stop was the Fayerweather jetty and Island as the tide was still coming in. Black Rock Harbor high tide was scheduled for 3:56pm. I didn't get into anything out there either. As the tide was still coming in I hit the rocky stretch which is usually a producer on the last hour or 2 of incoming. Nada. Went over to Breezy Point to take a quick peak but didn't see any action and nobody was there, so I decided to take a lunch break Downtown and be back at Breezy Point for the turn of the tide. Got back down to Breezy Point just before peek high and was throwing the SP-9 and FLR-10 out there. Saw the 2 buddies out there with 1 other surf caster. Terns weren't active this time but as the tide was getting lower I landed 4 up to a hard fighting 21"er that was very chubby and feeling about 5 pounds. 2 came on the SP-9 and the other 2 came on the FLR-10. The 21"er I landed on the SP-9 after pausing for a few seconds due to a big swirl and then giving the lure 2 quick snaps. Once tide got too low and there was no more fish hitting, I headed over to the city boat ramp for the last hour of light. Didn't get any action there and 3 of the usuals arrived who also didn't get anything. Before the police closed the park we all went out to Fayerweather Island with our topwaters but we never got any swirls or explosions. While at Breezy Point I was seeing these red colored fish occasionally swirling on the surface before going right back down. They've arrived and I wonder what it'll be like once it gets warmer.
