The nice thing about the river, you can always hide from the wind.  The East side of the river has been the place, whether it be the Indian or St. Lucie river.  The Middle Cove area has produced an excellent redfish bite as well as trout in the 6lb. range.  Live shrimp under a popping cork, live pinfish, and gold spoons have gotten the bites.  Jigging the Sailfish flats on the incoming tide has produced a mixed bag over the past week.  Jacks, Ladyfish, Pompano, Drum, Sheepshead, Triple Tail and Bonefish have been on the list. A few bonefish to 17 inches!  1/4oz yellow jigs tipped with shrimp got them all.   The Snook fishing in the St. Lucie river has been very good on live baits and bomber plugs.  Fish the deep water docks and bridges.

    Just as the pompano started making an appearance, the wind turned up.  However, the Whiting and Croaker have been there to make up for it.  Clams, shrimp, and fish bites have been the choice for bait.  Look for big jacks moving up and down the beach following the baitfish.  Spoons, topwaters, and live baits with get you an hour battle with a 25lb fish.  Few Tarpon showing up around the boils at the power plant.
