The inshore fishing has been good on the few days that we had with not so much wind. The hot spots for trout have been at places like Jack Island, Queen's Cove and Round Island. Live pilchards have been the best bait for the gator trout to 9 pounds. For the redfish you will want to look at the docks along South Indian River Dr. Try using a live shrimp on a 1/4 oz. trol-rite around the docks. If it is snook you are looking for try drifting a live bait in the Ft. Pierce Inlet on the tide change. Bottom fishing has been a little off due to the cold water temps but, there has been plenty of sheepshead around most inshore structures. Try a live shrimp or a crab - these have been the best baits to use.
