With that, I fear the Pomps have pulled off but could be wrong. I hear some good sized flounder are still on the gulf side of the cut so I'll take a few of those. I'll have my phone and I have fishin.com on it so feel free to post anything else on the cut or the surf!
At the cut, go out on the gulf side on the big limestone rocks as far as you can. You will see the sand bar as it approaches the rocks on the beach side but then drops into a gulch of about 6 feet of water. Incoming tide, the pomps will run on inside of that bar-along with trout, flounder, ladies, and smaller reds. Outgoing tide-if it's calm enough-go all the way to the end and fish that current towards the slack side with those jigs as that is the main turn around spot when the pomps are running. I have caught some in the 4-5 pound range there. You will need a net to land them as they will break you off on the barnacled rocks. Also large sheephead(fantastic eating) will inhale those jigs there. Unfortunately with that spot at the cut, the conditions have to be right-tide, wind and surf-to have a great day. Also if the porpoises are using the area a lot it is highly likely the pomps are there.
