From Henry @ Snook-Nook - Jensen Beach



Surf anglers are still on the bait schools, big Tarpon, big Snook and Jacks that will pull you down the
beach. Plenty of access in our area, go to the dune cross over first and look are there any birds working
the water,diving or sitting, any movement in the water all signs of bait. If there is none of the above got back
in the car and go a half mile to the next be fore you take out all your equipment, you will find the bait.
Plenty of big Croakers and Whiting for an excellent dinner so again do not forget the ice.

Indian River is Trout crazy, anglers from north of Taylor Creek or Bear Point south are talking about
Trout in numbers.  Most are in the top of the Slot with an unusual mix of Black Drum, not sure why the Drum
are in the flats but they are.  Not much in the Red Fish to report, a few but small, plenty of Lady Fish and Jacks
to make you wonder why you casted at the Tarpon, are there no small Tarpon?  From the bridges it is more
Trout and all of the above including bigger Tarpon.  Snook are every where but September Snook season opens
not sure how they know but he news travels fast in their schools, 28”/32” is the slot and FWC don’t care
if he took your baits.
