Good Afternoon,

There hasn’t been much to report with this wind but Sunday is looking really nice. Before the fan was turned on there were many reports of Sailfish, Wahoo and Mahi being caught on live threadfins out of Stuart. Hopefully That trend continues as the wind calms down. With this cold front the bridge Snook should be chewing from Stuart to Ft. Pierce, Flair hawks and big swimbaits with a slow retrieve will get those big fish to eat. There have been plenty of Pompano and Spanish Mackerel to go around in Stuart, they’re a great way for the whole family to catch some fish!

Synopsis: Dangerous marine conditions will continue into tonight behind a strong cold front with gale conditions expected. Strong offshore winds will gradually decrease late tonight through Saturday as high pressure builds in from the west. The ridge will then remain across the region into early next week with favorable boating conditions expected.
