Fort Pierce - Saltwater Fishing Report
December 10, 2005
INSHORE - The snook fishing has been on the slow side this week with a few keeper fish being reported taking live baits around the Turning Basin during the midmorning and on jigs after dark. The catch and release trout bite has been steady around Big and Little Creeks, again after the sun warms things up. I have been getting reports about pompano to the north of Harbor Branch and to the South around the power lines. There has been plenty of croakers around but getting them to eat has been tough. You just have to find the schools and wait them out. There has been plenty of spanish mackerel, bluefish and jacks around the Ft. Pierce Inlet.
OFFSHORE - Before the wind picked up on Tuesday the dolphin action was good in 160 to 200 feet of water. The kingfish have been in 60 to 90 feet of water and taking live baits. The sailfish are still to the north of the Ft. Pierce Inlet and in 100 to 130 feet of water. There has been plenty of bonita and sharks to steal your baits while you are fishing for the sails. The bottom for snapper, black sea bass and grouper has been steady with snapper to 8 pounds, grouper to 25 pounds and sea bass to 2 pounds. Along the beaches you will find all the spanish mackerel you can catch.
If you would like to report a catch, call me at 772-201-5770 or e-mail me at [email protected]. You can also reach me on the web at www.captjoeward.com
