Stuart Weather Forecast
Fishing reports straight from our guides in Stuart
December has arrived and the heat is still on. The warm weather is making it feel like spring time fishing. Bite is great but it would be nice to get the migratory fish pattern going.
Due to the warm waters and warm sunny days in South Florida the snook fishing is thriving. Snook are active along docks and seawalls. Live mullet and Rapala skitter walks creates massive strikes from the linesiders. Bridges and channels are holding bigger snook, DOA C.A.L. 3” shad tail and live baits worked on the bottom will get the drag screaming.
Tarpon fishing continues to shine....

Tarpon fishing continues to shine. Tarpon school up near deep passes and channels, willing to take live baits and DOA Terror Eyz. Tarpon can be seen rolling on the surface, allowing anglers to cast baits in their vicinity. The back bays and canals near mangrove shorelines are great areas to locate juvenile tarpon. Anglers are enjoying catching tarpon on live bait and DOA Terror Eyz. The average size of a tarpon are ranging from 5 to 50 pounds.
Anglers looking for a variety of species to target, can work channel edges, and rock piles, using jigs and live shrimp. Snapper, jacks, drum, croaker, mackerel and many other species have put a bend in the rod for anglers. A few small, cold fronts will really trigger the migratory pattern.
Well, that is the fishing report for the past week, hope you all enjoyed. Remember, you can’t catch them from the couch, so get out there and get hooked up. Tight lines!

The bite will be pure outrageous once it hits 78 degrees. Right after Ian it dropped to 78 and bite was insane and fish were concentrated. Temps are still up at 80 degrees at the moment and there are fish there… but you have to cover quite a few miles to be productive.

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Holiday season is full swing, the south Florida weather has felt like summer the past week. The water ways have been busy, be careful and vigilant of other boaters that are careless.
The snook fishing has been great around docks and seawalls due to the warm water temperatures sitting at 82°. Live bait, DOA C.A.L. 3" shad tails have the been the baits to get the strike. Moving water and clean water, key to success. There still dumping freshwater out in the ICW so fishing near inlets best bet.
Tarpon fishing is still excellent...

Tarpon fishing is still excellent in the Jupiter, Palm Beach areas. We are catching tarpon near mangrove shorelines, channel edges and near docks. Bigger tarpon are schooling on drop offs taking live baits and DOA Terror Eyz. Low light hours tarpon fishing around docks offer great action with the fly rod and live baits.
When not targeting snook and tarpon, jacks, drum mackerel and many other species are being caught jigging DOA C.A.L. curl tail and using live shrimp. Big schools of jacks and blues offer great action with top water as well.

Late bloomer! Hurricane Nicole sure snuck into the east coast of Florida packing a punch. Full moon super high tides made for a high water event for south Florida.
The fishing the days after Nicole produced great action as the inter coastal waters were teeming with a plethora of species. The mackerel, jacks, bluefish, snapper, tarpon just to name a few, produced drag screaming action for anglers.
Consistent schools of jacks, mackerel, bluefish and sharks made for smiling anglers as every cast produced a tug on the other end of the line. DOA C.A.L. curl tail and DOA terror eyz...

Consistent schools of jacks, mackerel, bluefish and sharks made for smiling anglers as every cast produced a tug on the other end of the line. DOA C.A.L. curl tail and DOA terror eyz mimic bait fish the predator fish feed on.
Channels and drop offs great areas to find roaming tarpon, looking for their next meal. Live bait and DOA C.A.L. shad tail were the bait of choice. The bite picked up on the outgoing tide due to the higher water levels. More water draw means more flushing of bait into open waters.
Snook fishing was good around docks as the tide dropped. Above normal hightides made snook hard to find along docks and mangrove shorelines. Lower tide levels the live baits and DOA C.A.L. 4” jerk baits produced strikes from snook.
Well that is the fishing report for the past week, hope you all enjoyed. Remember you can’t catch them from the couch, so get out there and get hooked up. Tight lines!

November has arrived, fall weather has fallen out of south Florida. It’s been warm and the fishing has been red hot for a plethora of species the past week.
Channels and flats have been teaming with big schools of jacks, mackerel, tarpon, moonfish, bluefish and sharks. Glass minnow schools have been main target for the predator fish. DOA C.A.L. curl tail jigs and live greenies have been excellent baits to get the strike. Rapala skitter walks always fun for anglers, as they witness fish explode on the surface, striking there lure.
Tarpon schools can be seen rolling on the surface,...

Tarpon schools can be seen rolling on the surface, allowing anglers to cast DOA BaitBuster and live bait in there vicinity. Both side’s of the tide produce great shots at tarpon. The tarpon have been ranging in size from 10 to 60 pounds.
Snook fanatics have had fun targeting snook around sea walls, docks and bridges. Live baits, DOA Terror Eyz and Rapala skitter walks have been getting the strikes. Snook can been sight fished on the flats. Bottom of the tide, snook can be targeted laying in pot holes. Nothing beats sight casting and hooking up with a linesider.
Well that is the fishing report for the past week, hope you all enjoyed. Remember you can’t catch them from the couch, so get out there and get hooked up. Tight Lines!

Went out offshore this morning, clients hooked into 3 King Macks quick, then a pod of Dolphins moved in on us. Kings went down. and when the kings go down like that you’re wasting your time to stick around so we bumped it offshore. Hooked into a good size Mahi, had another ~20 pounder bust off. Then things went cold. So we picked it up and motored back to one of my favorite spots where we picked up a Bonito, 2 Baracuda, a 4-5ft Silky Shark, and to top it all off two lunker Black Fin Tuna! First was right...
