Spring has arrived...like a tidal wave.

Jacksonville - Saltwater Fishing Report
(EXERPTS FROM MY REPORTS AT: www.captdaves.com)
"One after another, 28", 29", 31"....I don't know exactly how many we caught. But after awhile, we all kinda agreed that it would be cool to try for something else, for the fish box. Since we didn't get a Drum, or a Sheepshead. But we did get a few really nice Whiting."
"Just like the arrival of the scourgy Bluefish. One day there isn't a one. Then the next day, they're everywhere. Up in the rocks we never had a Bluefish bite. But as the boat swung out deep, I could literally see huge clouds of Bluefish schools on my sounder in 20 feet. Make a cast with the float rig out to them, and yep. It's a confirmed Bluefish school......the float disapears, and ya' got one hooked up, instantly!"
"As the tide started to fall we made our way inside the rocks. Time to bottom fish. And as it turned out, time for some I.G. - instantaneous gratification. Ryan drops a dead shrimp down, and gets instantly hooked up on a whopper Red."
"George hooked the first drag smoker. Brian caught the first fish though. A Whiting. George's fish played hard to get and bolted down to the bottom and "POP" went the leader. I believe then George got real serious. Because every fish after that, he showed it who was the boss."
"We had double headers..multiples!
Double headers and a lost second Double fish...plenty of "swing and a miss" hook-ups..."
C'mon, Let's go fishing!
The "Jettywolf" is rigged and ready to go.
