Fort Pierce - Saltwater Fishing Report

SEPTEMBER 11, 2008

INSHORE - This has been one of the slowest weeks for fishing reports that I have seen in a long time. With the combination of dirty water and all the wind -- everyone is staying home including me. However, one good thing happened this week -- the finger mullet are finally showing up in some good numbers. And, that means as the weather gets better the fish will be on their bite and chasing the schools of mullet. About the only reports I had this week were from anglers who were fishing in Taylor Creek from the bank. They reported a good snook bite on both live baits and a red/white Boomer lure. From the anglers fishing from the docks along the Ft. Pierce Inlet they reported a few snook, mangrove snapper, jacks and a lot of catfish while fishing at night. Most of the fish were caught on finger mullet or a live shrimp.

OFFSHORE - Once again this week there is no offshore report. I can't remember when the last time was that we went 2 weeks with no report!

JUNIOR TEEN ANGLERS - This Saturday is the kick off of the 3rd season of the from shore tournaments for the Treasure Coast Chapter of the Junior Teen Anglers. We were scheduled to fish last Saturday and moved it to this Saturday -- after the date was changed the weather did improve but the water was still very dirty. Junior Teen Anglers is a family event. Junior Teen Anglers is for the 5 to 11 age group. All of the from shore tournaments are held at Harbour Pointe Park in Ft. Pierce. If you would like more info on joining Junior Teen Anglers or for the 12 to 18 age group -- Teen Anglers just go to the web at www.teenanglers.org
