| On Saturday 8/11, we fished from the pier from about 12-3. We caught lots of pinfish, but also one non-keeper mangrove snapper and one beautiful triggerfish, about 8 inches long. We caught these fishing on the left side of the pier (casting into the channel) near the end, but not at the end using dead shrimp. Using only a tiny piece of shrimp (the size of a man's ring finger nail) on a small hook worked best, as the pinfish seem to be able to pull off a bigger piece in a matter of seconds. In too close and the rocks get every cast. 20 feet from the wide part of the pier at the end worked well. Had a great souvlaki in Tarpon Springs when we left, and the breeze made for a nice day. Storms threatened, but we left before they hit. |
