    No,no. Mullet migrate down the east coast in Sept. and Oct. I fish for the game fish that bust apart the schools of mullet. Sharks, snook, tarpon, blues, redfish and anything else in the surf will follow the mullet pods down the coast. All you gotta do is cast into the pods and hang on. DJD probably knows the drill if he lived there.

    We never fished the surf. Our main target was the Indian River around Titusville and the Banana River. The Reds, Trout, schooling Jacks and ladyfish is what we targeted. We would also lock through into Port Canaveral to fish the docks and pilings for Snook and anything else that would bite. Once in a while we would head down to Sebastian Inlet and fish for Flounder, Snook and the schools of Blues that would move in and out and that was a blast! The Flounder were huge back then (20 years ago) not sure how the fishery has held up?? We would use our cast nets and catch fingerling mullet for bait and this was in the fall. The Bluefish run was crazy good and anyone who has been in schools of these "chompers" knows the fun! The best was Redfishing because it reminds me alot of bassfishing. I think I would have a Boga if I still lived there.

    Now, my trips are to the West Coast around Bradenton and fishing the Mangrove lined canals.

    Our condo is at Cape Winds Condos in Cape Canaveral. I know the Brevard Co. area very well. Small world, isn't it?
