From Henry @ Snook-Nook - Jensen Beach


This week was another week that fell victim to the weatherman’s scorn. Just because he can not get off work he wants to make sure that that we do not get his share of the fish.
Surf has been questionable changing from day to day and hour to hour. Yes it
is Blue Fish weather and the cool mornings put plenty of Macs in the mix. Every day being a 3 or oz. morning to get over the white water. One needed that weight in each pocket to keep from blowing away. Anglers that braved the weather found fish on cut baits, these fish hunt with their nose and the cut bait puts out the scent that they are looking for.
Heard about Whiting and Croaker and a few small Pompano but to be honest not
to many anglers showed at the surf edge, may be this week will differ. East wind gave anglers the excuse they wanted to fish the North Fork and South Fork on the St Lucie rivers.
Always a go to get away from the wind with its curves and treed shore lines and Reds and Snook tot eh south and more Reds and Snook to the north watch for the Mullet was the key. Plenty of Spanish Macs south of the 10 cent bridge and Trout in Willoughby Creek, sorry no Pompano at Hells Gate but Mother Nature is back in control this could be the week. East shore of the Indian River has been home to many including Blues, Macs and Jacks and lots of short Snook on just about any thing you wanted to cast. No special time that east wind kept a lot of water in the river. Bridges continue to be the place if you don’t mind the wind and those big and bigger Snook bending your rod and all those anglers at the Roosevelt it is Black Drum a plenty. So many you had better know the limits, the Game Warden does.
Starting to sound like a broken record maybe next week some Pompano......
