Today fished BHP from 9:30 to 2:30.

Water color improved at end of pier from dark brown to a lighter brown-green color. Fishing changed also. Caught much bigger catfish today. About 20 hardheads, but caught several large gafftop catfish. One gafftop weighed seven pounds. Also, caught two sharks including one three foot Hammerhead.
Cut mullet was the ticket for getting more bites and bigger fish today.
Also, the three hook Pompano leaders with small yellow floats above each hook and a 2 ounce pyramid sinker seemed to produce better than just the regular leader set-up.

Others were also catching similar sharks and catfish today, but at a slower rate with squid and shrimp. Amazingly, did not see any other species of fish caught.

I was out just past bob hall today from about 10am - 130 and hooked up a nice 5 1/2 lemon shark , a nice big gafftop and plenty of hard heads the lemon hit on mullet and so did the gafftop. No luck on shrimp except hard heads. Good luck the third gut worked for me.

Lots of good information there! I have a feeling things just might get crazy in the surf, as soon as the green water hits the beach! Smile

I wouldn't waste your time or gas right now until the water clears. Just prior to the cold chocolate water we were hammering the fish! Once the water clears it will be on again. I live close to the horrace Caldwell pier and see the conditions daily. I will post when the surf clears up as I know many of us are waiting! I am going to do my best to post surf reports when the fish are on. I remember the difficulty I had getting accurate conditions when I lived north and drove several hours.

The surf in port a is looking better today with little to no weed. The color is sandy greenish and the blue water is about 200yds offshore. I will be watching closely the next few days as it looks as if it might clear up very soon! I did notice the water to be a bit warmer today also.

TFTR, I was looking at swellinfo and it says flat surf for the next 3 days!! I know, I know, swellinfo tends to be off a lot, but they can't screw up three days in a row..... Can they? I'll be out there on the 3rd if all goes well.
