This week at the Cottages

INDIAN RIVER LAGOON WATERFRONT COTTAGES

Week of May 19, 2017

This week at the Cottages has been a great one, the big fish are in and the weather has been great. Our daughter Janeve that most of you know as one of our 2 daughters that you see around the Cottages often has graduated from St Andrews this week and is heading to IRSC to begin her trip toward the medical field ( so a lot more school to go ), the school had a very memorable ceremony that all enjoyed. Robi now has one more year to go and she has achieved National Honor Roll status so we are very proud of them both. We have the holiday weekend coming up and look forward to seeing old friends at the Cottages, Have a safe Weekend.

Marine Forecast - Looks like 3-4 ft with dominant period of 5 seconds

Reports:

Inshore - The gator trout are all over on the north end from north bridge to past Harbor Branch, but remember the slot, jerry and tom caught 12 Wednesday on DOA baits all were over slot. Snook are hitting in the turning basin at incoming tides. Mangroves are on the channel edges early. Big Redfish were brought in by the Timms family using small live crabs they caught around the backwaters of Dynamite Point.

Offshore - Mahi are all over from 90 to 180 ft all were caught close to grass which has been hard to come by, bottom fishing has been very good on the days with strong currents - a slack day is best spent trolling
