Re: Boca Beach
I was there this morning (sunday) around 10am and it was HUGE. No beach to even walk on. The current on the beach was like a gnarly river. Lifeguards were not allowing anyone to walk the beach. Some guys were showing up with rods like it was fishable with spoons and what not but, No way in hell it was even close to fishable. You get killed in that poop.

Re: Boca Beach
Here's a couple photos I took at Spanish River... you can see where the water was coming up to at high tide in the morning. Incredible. I'll post more photos in the Boynton Inlet and Delray areas... !!!

Re: Boca Beach
I have a friend living on Dog Beach, that's next to Gulfstream Beach, his apartment was flooded out. This is a new meaning to the high water mark.

Re: Boca Beach
Mackeral were thick off boca this afternoon feeding on glass minnows. Had to wade to sandbar in order to reach them. If you have a yak you could tear them up. Jacks, ladyfish, and runners as well. Good luck.

Re: Boca Beach
Well got my answer ..the beaches are totally reconstructed by mother nature...so much sand dragged down ,and than it filled in the shallows, the beaches are much narrower, especially at high tide...

Re: Boca Beach
If you think Boca Beach i s bad you should see the Jersey shore. My family has(had) a friend with a $5 million dollar house on the beach. The house and beach are completely gone now. Striped bass season is starting soon up there, and many of those boatless fisherman have lost their honey holes.landcaster wrote:Well got my answer ..the beaches are totally reconstructed by mother nature...so much sand dragged down ,and than it filled in the shallows, the beaches are much narrower, especially at high tide...

Re: Boca Beach surf Reports
The sandbar is really close and shallow. Lots of tourists. No fish caught.

Re: Boca Beach surf Reports
I fished a beach yesterday with the 1st trough about 5 feet deep and 5 feet wide at high tide and then about 6 inches of water for a about 20 yards. It makes night fishing a challenge.

Re: Boca Beach surf Reports
Thanks guys for those observations..a bummer, i was hoping my observations were wrong......I do find though that within 1 hour of high tide, that does provide enough water for fish to make it over and into the trough even at the worst beaches...makes the fishing time very restrictive.....any other time no good...

Re: Boca Beach surf Reports
Mostly DELRAY and some BOCA... I haven't been out on the beach much since Sandy, but it's what I know best so I went back out. I've been out a few times this week and it's looked real fishy. Jacks, big runners, a few big (for up here -- 3 or 4 lbs) bonefish, palomettas, bluefish, and a handful of keeper pompano. Big fleas are clumping and the fish are tearing them up if you can man up and wade up to the bar, cast out, and walk it back. there is no bite in the trough, especially at low tide. anyway, there are always fish out there so rig up right and catch some. Bonefish seem to be schooling up as far as you can cast out (~12-15 feet). I also saw some mullet jumping south the last few days. get em, get em.

Fleas are thin since the fronts came through. Mackerel and jacks on spoons, jigs, and bucktails.

Re: Boca Beach surf Reports
I've been expecting them, but haven't seen them (yet). I went out yesterday morning and got cut off a few times. Those could have been blues, but I saw mackerel jumping. Also, a guy diving said the only thing he saw was a school of macks. Every day has been different out there so I wouldn't be surprised if they show up tomorrow.

parking meters come to Spanish River Blvd :-(
Alas, this morning I found that they are finally here.... parking meters.
Not only that, but on weekends it's $3 per hour!!!!
Fished 2 hours this morning at sunrise... just 2 blue runners.

Re: Boca Beach surf Reports
We had a good run...
If you are a city resident you can get the beach pass ($30?) and park at all of the city parks until Oct. 1st. I got a ticket out there a few months back for having my truck there after 10 PM and it was $25. That really steamed my buns.
Maybe I can buy a few five piece surf rods, a telescoping flea rake, a collapsible bait bucket, and some smaller sand spikes. Then I could wear a backpack and lock up my Huffy. Of course then I'll have to increase the potency of my potables from PBRs to Sailor Jerry.

Re: Boca Beach surf Reports
Funny!
Actually, I think resident beach pass is up to like $54 now.
the meters sure cut down on the parking problem down there. When I got there at 6:30am usually the parking is halfway to the bridge, but today I was the 2nd car.
I think if you have a resident beach pass, then the parking at the meters should also be free. I think I'll send an email...

Re: Boca Beach surf Reports
yeah, I usually don't fish at night, but a couple months ago went there with the wife and couple friends.... we fished until about 10:30pm and sure 'nuff, a $35 ticket! (Price must have gone up, now that they have to pay for all those new parking meters!)
