This is a brief recap of Henry's web cast from the Snook Nook in Jensen Beach for 2-21-2008. You can watch the web cast live every Friday at 8:30pm, or view archives of past shows at the link below.
Offshore
Trolling is good in 80'-125' of water. King mackerel, spanish mackerel, and dolphin are all biting well. Ballyhoo, riged ballyhoo, and big mullet are good baits. Bottom fishing is also good. Snapper and gag grouper are on ledges and other structure in 80'. Live bait is best if you can catch some but frozen ballyhoo also is working well.
Beach
There are lots of bluefish and jacks on the beach in the morning. Pompano, whiting and croaker are there in the late morning through the afternoon. Anything flashy will catch the blues and jacks, sand fleas, live or dead shrinp, and small jigs will catch the rest. Also look for flounder in the Ft Pierce inlet. Most are in the sand on the north side.
River
Snook are around the bridges and on grass flats. They feed best when there is a strong tide. Some will be caught during the day but most are being caught at night. A lot of these snook are over the slot. Pinfish, mullett, and shrimp are the best live baits, hawk and redtail hawk jigs are the best artifical baits. Redfish, trout, and pompano are on grass flats. Live shrimp, D.O.A. or Gulp shrimp, pinfish and mullett are all good baits for the trout and reds. Shrimp, sand fleas and small jigs will catch pompano. A gold spoon also works great for redfish.
