01/24/2009 West Palm Beach Fishing Report

We Sstarted out early this morning with cold temperatures and unexpected rough conditions. Plan A was to start the day off by trying to catch some goggles eyes or blue runners around the buoys with no luck. Plan be was to drift towards a wreck in 150' with no luck. Emergency Plan C was to troll towards the beach to get out of the rough conditions and the cold temps with no luck trolling however it was much warmer closer to shore. After warming up we set another drift off Breakers in 50-70'. We finally started to get some action with a grouper, spinner shark, bonito, and some blue runners. We did see a few dolphin but weren't able to get them in the boat. All in all a slow day on the water but well worth the trip with our first shark!
