Capt Dave's Fishing Forecast: 2/1/2010

February in Jacksonville, isn't much different than January, really. Most N.E. Florida residents are just waiting for it to be over, so we can get back to warmer weather. "Ya gotta remember, if's it's under 50 degree's here for an extended time it's as if all life slows down." There even seems to be a lot less traffic on the roads. Personally, I can deal with heat much better than cold. So many clothing layers is such a hassle.

I've been out in the 95 degree heat of a summer morning (yeah, sometimes by 8am) and look at all my clients on the boat and they're wet and sweaty already. And my T-shirt is basically dry. But in the winter it's just the opposite. I look like the Michelin man, I'm so "layered-up." While many of them do not even have a hood on their jackets, or a hat on their heads.

I grew up with a saying my dad used to recite; "A shoe is but a shoe. But a sneaker is a friend."

My version of that same whacky little verse is; "A sweatshirt is but a sweatshirt, but one with a hood is friend!"

Speckled Trout season is closed for harvest in February. We can catch, but we can't keep. Which is okay with me. I'll take a Feb. closure of my favorite species during Feb. over a closed season in May, any day. Even though we can't keep them. I still fish for them. I have too, I gotta keep up with my Trout friends. IE: where they are at, and what they're doing. And we catch other species, while we're looking and hunting.

I'll fish the jetties (inlet) as usual. Barring any winter winds and high seas outside the granite boulder protected waterway into the Atlantic. And it looks like this year in February will be as chilly as it was in January, for sure. Water temps, I mean. So, fishing S-L-O-W is the key. With the objective of letting the bait be found easily. And fish not having to "give chase". I don't believe any fish in our area wants to really chase a bait, when the water is below 60 degrees.

Please refer to my blog, (www.jacksonvillefishingreports.blogspot.com) which is linked via the "Fishing reports" on the top of this page. There you will read about each day. And as I say; "Fishing for me isn't just my J-O-B, it's a lifestyle I share with other's."

-Hope to have you aboard the JETTYWOLF
