Water levels have come up, and the fish have scattered out a little bit. You’ve got to work for them right now, but once you find fish, stay with them. The bite has been fantastic when you get around them.

Lake Okeechobee has been a little on and off lately. Water levels are still low overall but are slowly coming up. We could use some stable weather to really get things going. Once conditions settle in, expect the bass bite to fire up.

🎣 END OF SUMMER FISHING REPORT — STUART & JENSEN BEACH
St. Lucie River • Indian River Lagoon • St. Lucie Inlet
On the last day of summer, I've got some pretty good news from the water.

The river looks good. There's bait everywhere, we're seeing a lot of fish, and tonight at midnight SNOOK SEASON OPENS!
Anybody looking to eat a fresh Snook dinner?
Well, you've either got to catch one yourself… or know somebody who does. Snook aren't something you're going to walk into the grocery store and buy.

Here in the Indian River Lagoon region, recreational Snook...

Here in the Indian River Lagoon region, recreational Snook
harvest opens September 1 and runs through December 14. You can keep one Snook per person, per day, and it has to measure at least 28 inches and no more than 32 inches total length.
Anything smaller or bigger goes back to fight another day.
And remember — that 35-inch monster might make a great picture, but she doesn't make dinner. 📸🎣

🐟 ONE OF MY FAVORITE WAYS TO CATCH SNOOK

Live mullet. I love fishing a live mullet along a seawall during an incoming tide or during the first hour or two of the outgoing tide.
I'll usually throw the cast net and catch a few, then keep them alive in my livewell. A five-gallon bucket with a lid and bubbler works too... And trust me on the lid.
Mullet have an impressive ability to discover freedom the second you're not looking. 😂

Make sure you're fishing stout tackle with a strong leader. A good Snook isn't going to politely swim toward the boat. She's going to smoke the drag and head straight for the nearest dock piling, seawall, mangrove root or underwater obstruction.

We've been catching Sailfish: some trips with multiple releases. Mahi and Kingfish are biting. The current has been ripping. Snapper fishing has been tough the last couple of trips.

    Captain Brett was awesome. Put us on some action. He was polite and easy to get along with. He went above and beyond, tying to help with taxidermist and make recommendations for dinner and things to do in the area. Will be booking with him again.

    Trip: Peacock Bass & Iguana Cast & Blast

    A terrific experience all around. Even though we didn’t catch many fish! As the crew said, that’s why they call it fishing and not catching! Still, we had a wonderful time and a lot of fun.

    Trip: Iguana Hunting Insanity

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Ricky was an awesome guy. It was a full moon, rainy,windy type day and he did about all he could do to get us on fish. The only improvement I felt he could make better for his clients is having Right and Left handed reels onboard. Both of us felt awkward using left side handled bait casting reels.

    Trip: Fun Full Day Peacocks And Exotics

  • ★★★★★
    We did the cast and blast trip and were able to check a couple things off the list. One of the guys in our group was really wanting to catch a snakehead and got it done, and I was able to knock a peacock bass off my bucket list as well. We also got some good iguanas during the hunting portion of the trip. The equipment provided was top notch, especially the guns, and everything was handled with a strong focus on safety. For someone new to this type of trip, there’s definitely an opportunity to experience a little bit of everything.

    Jose is a great captain, he was very professional and got us on fish and iguanas very quick, it was a great experience. If you want to go fishing or iguana hunting Jose is your guy

    Trip: Cast And Blast Combo!

  • ★★★★★
    It was a decent trip. The captain experience charged a $165 additional service fee which was a bit egregious and the trip was cut short by 30 min. So I paid $1,665 for 4.5 hours. It was fun but definitely not worth the money.
