INSHORE - The ESE winds have been blowing 15 to 20mph just about every day this week and this has made fishing tough. On these days most anglers launched their boats at Round Island and fished at Round Island, Queen's Cove or Jack Island. A live shrimp fished under a popping cork was working the bet for the trout. Most of the fish reported were under 3 pounds. A pinfish was the way to go for the snook that were up on the flats but most of the fish were under size. There were a lot of jacks and ladyfish to keep you busy. The redfish reported in this same area have been very easy to spook and not letting anglers get within casting distance. On Saturday we followed a school for about 45 minutes with no luck. On a couple of morning this week before the winds kicked up there were good numbers of snapper, sheepshead, black drum and spanish mackerel along the channel edges of the Intercoastal. A live shrimp was hard to beat. As for the snook fishing around the docks in the Ft. Pierce Inlet at night the bite has been red hot on the tide changes. Small live shrimp free lined or a small pinfish fished the same way has been the ticket but most of the snook have been under the slot.
