how can I catch a big fish in the saltwater intercostal north miami beach fl over night fishing?
I fish at an intercostal in north miami beach mostly over night and I never cach any thing big, I use mostly dead sardines, dead shrimp and squed. what am I doing wrong beside that? it is only bait I find at bait shop.
Here are some ways to improve your night fishing on the ICW:
1. Try to fish near a dock or bridge that have lights LOW to the water. At night, light attracts plankton/zooplankton, which attracts bait-fish (Shrimp, Pogy/Menhaden, Mullet, Etc), and in turn attracts Gamefish, (Reds, Trout, Snook, Mangrove Snapper, Etc). If your fishing in the dark where there is NO major tidal flow, oyster bed, Grass bed, Etc you are wasting your time……
2. DON’T USE DEAD BAIT! (I’m sorry for yelling but I’ve answered hundreds of Q’s regarding ICW/Saltwater fishing and dead bait.) If your using dead bait your only gonna catch Hard Headed Catfish, Eels, Rays, the occasional M. Snapper, Croaker, Spot, Sailors Choice and other misc “trash fish”. Dead bait works well in the ICW in “high current areas” (such as in channels and Inlets), along beaches, and in areas where you KNOW large “eating sized” M. Snapper, Croaker, Sailors Choice, Whiting, Etc will be.
Otherwise, if your using Squid, Dead Shrimp, or Cut Bait AT NIGHT your DEFINITELY gonna catch “trash fish”. Catfish esp love to feed at night.
3. Try using Jigs and Lures- Berkley Saltwater Gulp (either the Shrimp or Jerkshads) is VERY productive when threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead OR rigged with a simple Offset 5/0 hook.
Another VERY productive lure at night is the Rapala Husky Jerk HJ-10 Minnow. Suspending lures work well when retrieved up to a light then “hesitated”. Snook, Tarpon, M. Snapper & Spec Trout fishing is esp good under bright lights at night.
Another GREAT lure at night is a “glow” D.O.A. Shrimp or a “glow” Berkley Powerbait 4″ Curly-tailed Grub fished on a 1/4 OZ Chartreuse Jig .
DON’T discount lures at night. Lures make “noise” and appear “alive”; which is important.
4. ALWAYS Float your live Shrimp/Menhaden/Finger Mullet- Try using a Popping cork with a Live Shrimp. It’s VERY productive on Snook & Spec Trout……..!
If you follow these basic 4 concepts I can guarantee you’ll catch bigger and better fish….
Good luck!
