Fort Pierce - Saltwater Fishing Report
October 17, 2007
INSHORE - There is not a lot to report this week with the N.E. winds at 15 to 25mph. This has made it hard to find a place out of the wind. But, I did get reports from anglers that used the Round Island boat ramp and fished a little around that area. They reported that they had a few trout to 3 pounds, jacks, ladyfish and a couple of snapper. They did see a few redfish but got no takers with their live shrimp. The snook fishing in Taylor Creek has been steady when using small jigs or a live mullet. Around the docks along the Ft. Pierce Inlet I am getting reports of snapper, spanish mackerel, bluefish and flounder during the day. And, at night a few slot size snook on the tide change and the bite has been after dark. Most of the snook are being caught on live shrimp.
OFFSHORE - No offshore reports this week due to the sea conditions. Hopefully they will lay down for the weekend.
JUNIOR TEEN ANGLERS - The Junior Teen Anglers held their 2nd from shore fishing tournament last Saturday -- October 13th at Harbor Pointe Park in Ft. Pierce.
