  • Indian River Fishing Report - FL

    While windscontinue to blow around the Treasure Coast, April arrives and brings with itmore chances of rainy afternoons. Fishing continues to be good around thearea if you plan your fishing carefully with the continual change in weatherpatterns as Spring quickly approaches. April will still have plenty ofwindy days, but the rainy season will arrive to bring relief to the dry winterwe have had.


    Royden and Mary Annfinally got to go fishing after several attempts with the weather. Theyfound croakers, sheepshead and snapper biting on their morning to enjoy. Mel, Kayla, Brian and Brian were out for an afternoon trip that found croakersand sheepshead on the catch list on a challenging windy day. Wayne,Carol, Bill and Lydia had a wonderful morning that found pompano, sheepshead,mackerel, and jacks among the many species that they caught. John andTheresa had a beautiful morning. John topped the day off with a nice bigblack drum and they added sheepshead and croakers to the days catch. Billand Bill found snook biting early with mackerel, sheepshead, snapper and otherspecies to round out a good day fishing. Richard and Bob were rewardedwith two nice pompano that they wanted to target along with sheepshead andsnapper to end a great morning. Tom, Frank and Frank Jr. had a nicemorning to find sheepshead, jacks, mackerel and snapper biting for theguys. Al, Jake, Ashlyn and Edwin found the motherlode of croakers alongwith mackerel, sand perch, sheepshead and snapper among the many fish theyenjoyed catching. Bob and John each caught their first snook along withmackerel and jacks to make for an awesome day in spite of the winds!






    We still continueto catch pompano around the river, but they will be vacating the area beforelong. Doc's Goofy Jigs or DOA shrimp are good lures for them. Thesnook bite has continued to be good on the high ends of the tides. The croaker bite has been another good year for us along with sheepshead. The big Spanish mackerel have been coming into the inlet with the tides withthe big jacks to bend your rod! It's been an outstanding week on thewater!


    Remember, fishingis not just another hobby....it's an ADVENTURE!
