Stuart - Saltwater Fishing Report
It has been very difficult to get offshore the past two weeks but some things have changed for the better. The north winds have finally pushed some live bait into the area. Right in with the bait are the predators. Kings, big jacks, cudas, and Spanish mackerel are in a frenzy as they feed on threadfins and sardines. Be sure to have plenty of sabicki rigs along as you will lose a few to the toothy critters as they steal your bait. Also have some wire leader if you want to fish where the bait is. The bigger boats that were able to get out, were catching a mixed bag of sails, dolphin, and amberjacks near the wrecks. Some rays have been moving through and several cobia have been boated. Just of the beach we boated several blue fish on spoons. The ocean still has some big swells but it is fishable with a medium sized boat. Fishing the inlet area we picked up a variety of fish including margates, bluefish, and jacks. We had a couple of smaller snook at the Roosevelt Bridge on live sardines the other day. The bridge is also holding some decent sized black drum. The canals and seawalls on the north fork of the St. Lucie River are producing snook and jacks. Spring fishing has arrived so it is time to get out and enjoy it. More later.
