Offshore and surf fishing are on hiatus for a bit with high NE winds forecast thru the weekend. Snook fishing in the Indian River has remained good, with fish caught around docks and deeper shorelines, DOA CAL jigs, Yo-Zuri suspending twitchbaits, and flies resembling mullet have all been effective. Redfish are still being caught along the shorelines on soft plastics and live bait. The inlets have been productive for Snook on mostly live bait, but also flare jigs and Hogy swimbaits. Good luck out there!
