The cold fronts will be backing off this month but the March winds can blow for days. A good trout and red bite has been going on north of Herman’s Bay. Try fishing the Mosquito Impoundment culvert pipes on an outgoing tide for redfish and snook with a D.O.A. CAL # 371 on ¼ oz. jig head. The warmer water increases the surface action so throw a walk-the-dog style plug or chugger at first light for a gator trout. There can be some big fish on the flats this time of year so make sure you have a smooth drag and plenty of line. Not sure of what happened to the pompano or where they will show up but so far it has been on the slow side as of this writing. We are skipping pompano in the boat wake but they look small. Treasure Coast bridges are a snook magnet and live bait on a jig head is the ticket during the day. Fish the structure and keep the bait on the bottom. No doubt you will get broken-off by big fish but that is part of the challenge. Dock lights at night around Sewall’s Point will have snook hanging in the shadow line waiting for a free-lined live shrimp or swim bait to come thru the light and then pounce. Try to turn the fish quick before they break you off on the docks. Snapper and sheepshead can be caught drifting the inlet with shrimp on a jig head or anchored up around the bridges. Just off the beach the cobia will be free swimming or following the rays. Live bait or a cobia jig flipped near the cobe will usually result in a hook up. The more fishing pressure a fish gets the more aware they become of noise and unnatural looking bait presentation which can shut down the bite. Keep the waterways clean.
