Good morning everyone, I hope you’re staying warm these days. The high winds we’ve had have kept most people in dry dock, but some have braved it and been rewarded. Snook fishing at night at the bridges and the inlet in Fort Pierce has been good since the season re-opened Monday, both on flare jigs and live bait, and Sebastian Inlet has also been productive. In the surf, there continues to be some Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish taking spoons, as well as some Pompano taking Fish Bites, sand fleas, and clams, particularly at Jaycee Park in Fort Pierce. Offshore fishing has been just about impossible the last few days with the heavy winds, but prior to that there were some Sailfish and Dolphin caught in 100-120 feet of water, and a very good Snapper bite in 70-80 feet on live and cut bait. Inshore, Seatrout and Redfish have been active near the power plant in Fort Pierce, as well as the Round Island area, taking soft plastics and live shrimp. Snook have been largely lethargic with the colder temps, but Pompano should pick up in the river, particularly around Wabasso and the flats near the inlets. Good luck out there.
