Fished out on the end of the south jetty today from a boat. Mangrove snapper were plentiful, as well as triggerfish, spanish macs, and redfish. I got broken off three times on redfish that I couldn't turn around. I have never seen as many stingrays in the water as I saw today, you could have walked to the jetty on them. It was a great day of fishing in God's country.

Never fished there. Is it worth while to take the kayak to fish inside the jetty? Not sure I would enjoy fishin on the jettys. What do you think?

I got hung up a few times when fish took me into the rocks. I finally did away with the one ounce weight and started using a split shot freelining shrimp. No more hangups and was catching a fish on nearly every cast. You could tear the shrimp into 3 pieces and catch fish even on the tail and head. It was some of the best fishing I have ever experienced down here.

I saw a guy out there in a kayak, but the water is pretty rough out there's Lots of big boat wakes to contend with, but I guess it's doable if your comfortable in that kind of water/
I have to go home in the morning and I hate to leave worse every time we come. This message board keeps me in contact with the fishing and the area that I have grown to love. Until next time.

I saw a guy on a wave runner towing some kind of buoy. Any one know what that was for. Guy could have simply asked me to move but instead drove right over my lines. I was fishing on the beach, FYI

I take my orange kayak out to the jetties about twice a week, my friend and i shark fish off of them on the surf side so i take my kayak out there to get the baits out, when ever we want red fish we just flip around to the channel side and throw out a small live piggy and just wait to hear the drag. kayaking out there is a blast, you need to be comfortable reading the waves and confident that if you come up to the rocks and you need to bail you can back paddle pretty quick. I like to go out to the green channel marker off of the end and just anchor and free line a live piggy.
