throwing Redtail Hawks and Wind Cheaters we found that the Snook have started making a hard move around the Inlet and Turning basin the last few nights. Alot of "over slot" fish are being caught however there are real good numbers being caught. Also at the mouth of the Inlet we were happy to see small schools of juvenille Tarpon (20-60 pound) that were also more than ready to take a lure. So, whether you are in a boat, hire a guide or shore bound, fish the Jetty of Ft. Pierce in the evening for some great fishing action.
