From Henry @ Snook-Nook - Jensen Beach
So this week I will leave the weather man out and talk about fishing in the
wind, I will adjust.
Lets go to the beach, this north wind and north east wind means bring the
twelve foot rod out, see I am adjusting. Anglers need to ready for the long
cast, the cast that will get you away from the white water, I know the surfers
love this wind. As the wind blows it will lower the water temp and the Blue and
Macs will come with it. With the east wind the edge will be turbid, lots of sand
moving around weather man, preferred bait will be cut baits. These species hunt
with their nose and they will follow the scent, they will find the bait. Spoons
have to be seen and in the turbid water it can be difficult thank you weather
man. That twelve foot rod will put you in the zone for Pompano and there has
been a few small fish but legal. So get your self a bag of finger mullet, some
four ounce sinkers and come on down, our winter species have arrived. With seas
running 3’ to 5’ and close together I don’t think I will adjust, young mans game
and I am old.

Anglers fishing east side of the Indian River and the South Fork were talking
about the Reds, over the slot Reds. With overcast days we have had any time was a good time, using small gold spoons and soft rubber baits.
Plenty of Trout in the area of the power plant, sheltered flat water using
suspending lures and shrimp jigs again any time was good, over cast skies.
Plenty of Blues, Jacks and Lady fish to keep you busy and then the bridges. All
week it has been the location with all of the above and Drum, Sheephead,
Mangroves and Snook with all the right conditions. On the north side Snook they
love strong currents, on the south side it is Drum and mangroves, prefer the
quiet water but in the middle of it all it is Blues, Mac’s throw in a few I have
forgotten, lots of rod benders.
