4/10/24 FL. Fishing Report From Brother In-Law
The city of Venice dug out the sand so the lagoon could drain into the gulf. This resulted in a nice sand bar created close to the beach and making a great spot to deadstick. The water was too rough to cast lures for trout so dead sticking was the way I fished today. All the fish I caught today were from using Fish Bites. No other bait was used. I was trying to catch pompano.
I brought two 10 pound bluefish to the beach but only landed one....the second huge blue bit through my leader before I could pull it away from the water on the beach.
I also caught a 3 pound 15 inch black drum as well as a bunch more whiting and one small permit. We ate the Whiting I caught yesterday and they were delicious. I filleted all the Whiting in this picture this evening and we will eat them along with the black drum on Friday.

Nice report Andy, from start to finish ๐ฃ
Sounds like you had a great time ๐ keep up the amazing fishing and thanks for the pictures ๐
I'm guessing that's Venice FL. Nice batch of fish, though I don't eat blues. They sure are fun to catch sa long as you're tackle can stand up to it.

Awesome catching for your BIL Andy. It looks like he's in the perfect place, and the city actually did something beneficial for fishermen. Thanks for sharing his adventures.

I don't know what kind of fish bites Don Uses. I do know he uses a home made doubble botton rig with #4 Circle hooks.
