Stuart - Saltwater Fishing Report

Fall is here and changes in the fishing patterns are coming. Snook season has opened and we are off to a good start. They are being caught off the beaches in the mullet schools that are moving through. They are also in the rivers at the bridges and the canals of the north fork of the St. Lucie River. We had two keepers last week along with a couple of twenty pound tarpon on live finger mullet. Offshore has been somewhat slow with a few dolphin and kings being boated. The bottom fishing has been good. We have been limiting on vermillion and lane snapper with a few yellowtail and trigger fish mixed in. Unfortunately porgy has been shut down until January. This is the first time this has occurred and the closure is a blow to all of the head boats. We are looking forward to the fall dolphin run and the return of Spanish mackerel.
