From Capt Joe Ward @ Bait Shack - FT Pierce

 The inshore fishing in November should be good for Spanish mackerel, big jacks and a few bluefish. They will be working the Ft. Pierce Inlet and the Turning Basin. Just look for the birds and baitfish and you will find the schools of fish. Have a small 1/4oz. spoon or a flashy jig ready and you should have a blast. The snapper bite around the bridges and in the Ft. Pierce Inlet will remain steady for anglers using a live shrimp or small white baits. The Ft. Pierce Inlet has been the best place to catch a slot size snook while drifting a live mullet. Try the tide changes for your best chance. The trout & redfish have been a little shy but, a few nice fish have been reported at places like Bear Point, Herman's Bay and at Jack Island. A large live shrimp will be hard to beat. Fish the shrimp under a popping cork in 3 to 5 feet of water. The pompano have made a small showing but it should pick up as the month goes on. Try a sand flea or a piece of clam for the best results. The whiting, bluefish, jacks and pompano should be in the surf and a piece of fresh dead shrimp will work just fine for most of these fish.
