Re: Juno Fishing Pier Reports 2009
Not at the pier. The water temp by the pier is still 80 degrees. There has been a couple shorts caught by tourist and Dave caught one that was barely keeper but they havent really shown up yet and wont until that water temp drops some.

Re: Juno Fishing Pier Reports 2009
fished the beach for pomps about 1/2 mile N. of Juno pier from 6:30am to 11am... friend got one good-sized pomp about 6:45am... I caught a small runnner (and a pelican)... nothing else.... did see a school of fish swimming by about 10" each, threw a big plug, but no action.... didn't seem like any predator around them. Beautiful day, tho!

Re: Juno Fishing Pier Reports 2009
You guys who are looking for some action (haha) need to get up to Sebastian Inlet. Yes it was very crowded up there this weekend but between Saturday and Sunday I probably saw 500 to 600 Spanish Mackeral being caught (all big fish). At least 150 Black drum up to 10 lbs. 40 to 50 keeper Snook and 100 slob Redfish that were all way to big to keep. Not to mention a bunch of Bluefish and a handful of nice Flounder.
I limited out both days of Spanish Mackeral with my son and we ended up with a total of 17 Black drum over the weeked.
Anyone who knows how the fishing can be at Sebastian Inlet will tell you that this is all true.
Yes it is about a 2 to 2.5 hr ride for most of us, but well worth the ride. I know I'll be back up there this up coming weekend.
All I can say is that I cant wait for all of those Macks to make there way down to our area.
Good luck to all.

Re: Juno Fishing Pier Reports 2009
A few mackeral were caught in the morning on live sand perch. Then everything slowed down until about 3. Then lots of Bluefish came through. Other than that the day was pretty slow.

Re: Juno Fishing Pier Reports 2009
Fished the pier this evening (Sunday) from dark until 9:00 pm. Bluefish and runners were non-stop with the majority being bluefish by the time I left. Lots of fun and I stayed on the North/West corner just to stay out of the fray. Lots of people using triple rigs for runners and they were pulling up two and three bluefish at a time. Lots of them broke off when they were trying to hand line them up since their rods were too light. Some sharks mixed in too.
I was the only one out of 40 people I counted on the "T" that spoke English when I left. I don't mind that and fun to see everyone catching fish but they made the place a mess. One guy balled up a huge tangle of line, walked from the East end of the T to the West side and started to throw it over the side in front of me. I yelled at him to stop and he looked at me like I had a third eye on my forehead and threw it over anyway. I told him not to do that again but he did not appear to understand English. There were empty bait bags blowing over the side into the water, saw one bait box go in (guy kicked it under the rail), and garbage everywhere on the deck (most of it was not there when I arrived).
Lots of fish though, lots of fun, and looked like the word got out because there were still quite a few people arriving when I left.

Re: Juno Fishing Pier Reports 2009
The oriental army is an unstoppable force for sure. Every morning when I come out before work the place is a mess. The rails are covered with squid,bait boxes everywhere, and even one morning there was two small blacktips cut up and left in a big plastic bag in the middle of the T. They really need to hire someone to clean the pier every morning.Goat wrote:Fished the pier this evening (Sunday) from dark until 9:00 pm.

Re: Juno Fishing Pier Reports 2009
Fished the pier again tonight (Monday) from dark till 9:00 pm. Only 12 people on the "T" tonight. Runners were pretty consistent but only saw one bluefish come over the rail around 8:30. Some crabs were coming up too. I free lined a runner out off the North side and it sat for 1 1/2 hours with nothing touching it. Pulled it in, cut it up a bit and tossed it out on the bottom for the next hour and nothing. Didn't even look like crabs touched it. Also had a bottom rig finger mullet with float to keep off the bottom away from crabs. Brought it back in and it looked just like it did when it went in 2 1/2 hours earlier.
There was a guy buying food or visiting at the pier house when I arrived who said one of the law enforcement agencies was out there in the morning and tagged a bunch of people over the limit on bluefish and also some undersize fish. I can't confirm one way or the other.

Glad to see the dips**ts are traveling north and adventuring the northern piers. The further from Broward they go,.. the better thing for the world.

Re: Juno Fishing Pier Reports 2009
Tried again tonight 6:00 - 8:00 pm. Only 4 people on the "T" when I arrived. Not a good sign. First cut bait out hooked a small sharpnose in a 30 seconds. Things looking up. Next bait same thing then......... nothing rest of the night. Saw a couple of small runners come in.
A local resident from Jupiter was at the pier house. Said someone stole some rods and reels from his house last night. He lives in a neighborhood across from the Shores on Central/Roebuck. One of the reels was Jigmaster. Pretty easy to spot since not many seem to be used anymore. I have a couple of old ones in my garage that still work like new. Great reel.
Piermaster also said there had been a lot of vehicles broken into last few days in the parking lot. Said most cars were surfers that had left keys hidden while they were down on the beach.

Re: Juno Fishing Pier Reports 2009
Fished JBP yesterday from 6:30am to 3:30pm. Water looked to have good color, but fish were a bit scarce. Spanish Macs were there off and on most of that time....most were fairly small and were being caught on crappie jigs. There was one small school of bonita that came through but I only saw 1 landed....and on a crappie jig on light tackle no less!! Boo runnas were around off and on also. I had a good run from what seemed to be a good sized King that took a blue runner I had out on a trolly, but did not get a good hook on him. Was a nice day to be out on the pier, but not that lively of a day if you were looking to fill the freezer!!
