Re: Long Point April 11-12
I used to fish the pier in `79-81. Just watch the rats and they`ll show you where the bait is. My brother, various friends and I used to jump off the bridge going over the inlet on the outgoing tide. About 68 ft. or so. We talked 2 cute girls into jumping and one leaned forward a little on entry. My brother and I jumped in after her and got her to the ladder. Knocked the wind out of her and probably cracked a rib or two. I was up in Beantown in Oct and we thanked our lucky stars AGAIN. We were very lucky and no we didn`t get lucky.

Re: Long Point April 11-12
Pinners yes chum yes cast net yes sabikis yes. Surfers already know it`s the best break on the east coast.

Pinners yes, chum yes, cast net yes, sabikis yes. Surfers already know it`s the best break on the east coast. Especially the monster hole after storms.

Re: Long Point April 11-12
Easiest rig for pinfish is small gold hooks with small pieces of peeled shrimp. Try along the mangroves on in inside of the inlet's north side.
My 5 year old will catch 'em all day on his "Scooby-Doo" rod On certain out going tides, there are schools of oversized redfish in the inlet. When they are there, double and triple hook ups are not uncommon Drop down anything live while drifting out the inlet east of the bridge. Lloyd

Re: Long Point April 11-12
Just wanted to post here to see if anyone is coming in Thursday? I'll be pulling in by noon. I just made a reservation at the Floridana Beach Motel Melbourne Beach, Florida. They have well lit parking for trailers and their rate is 65 bucks. I believe they have 2 rooms left. Here is their website.
http://www.motelfloridana.com/ If anyone wants to get together for dinner or a cold one let me know. If anyone else is already hosting dinner/cocktails please let me know. Thanks! I will be dropping the boat in around 8am Fri at the Long Point ramp and doing some gunkholeing. Let's get things started early. I AM PUMPED!!!!!!! Is Ken taking bets on weather the mighty volvo can tow the 23 177 miles? I just got new tires, brakes and a motor.

Re: Long Point April 11-12
I will heading over very early Friday so should be in the water mid morning. I'm going east to Vero and then north, I just can never pass up an opportunity to go to YEE HAW JUNCTION, seems much shorter too. Brian to much traffic for you with the 23 though, you need the better roads.
Anyone have a pinfish trap ???? it would be sweet to put out at the park to save time. I will bring my bait motel so the kids can help too if they want.
