With the bass fatting up for the spawn, the live bait action has been excellent. Half day trips have produced catches up to forty bass per trip with full day trips boating 60 to 70 fish per outing. We’re also seeing the bigger fish show up, those in the 8-to-9-pound range.Capt. Eddie PerryNov 30th, 2016
Pompano guys, if the wind stays strong like it has been, look to the river and bridges. Jigs will be your best bet. Jensen Beach and Little Jim bridge are hot spots. You can’t miss where it is because everyone will be lined up jigging. Look for Walton Rocks Beach to be the very best place if the wind lays down. River and wading will be hot for trout and redfish.Capt. Chris SharpNov 30th, 2016
Redfish can be found around local docks during the winter months and a live shrimp or D.O.A. Shrimp can entice them into striking. Don't forget about the deeper cuts along the mangroves for redfish and snook in December. Using stealth is essential when fishing the shallow waters for redfish.Capt. Charlie ConnerNov 30th, 2016
December is the month for sailfish! Head out near the Gulfstream and check out rips, temperature changes and any kind of fishy looking edge (i.e. weedlines) you can find. Trolling with ballyhoo or skirted lures, as well as slow trolling live bait, is the way to go. Capt. Bill StewartNov 30th, 2016
Flounder take center stage at Sebastian Inlet from Thanksgiving on. Gulf flounder, A.K.A. three spot flounder, are leaving the inlet in December, but the larger southern flounder are just beginning their run. Land-bound and boating anglers both find soaking live finger mullet on areas of broken rocky/sandy bottom is the best way to put a doormat in the cooler. Capt. Gus BruggerNov 30th, 2016
It is sailfish time! This is the time to find a more abundant stock of sailfish in the waters off the Treasure Coast. With the water temperatures dropping to our north, this will push the sailfish into the area and they will join with the resident sailfish that are here throughout the year. Capt. Danny MarkowskiNov 30th, 2016
While fishing a bridge for bull reds at night in Pensacola Bay, a surprise lightning storm caught a friend and I on the water. We took shelter under the bridge. The storm winds whipped the seas up to a nasty three feet. We held tightly to the pilings as the conditions deteriorated. I was never so glad we’d prepared for the worst. Here are five tips that helped us ride out the storm.Treasure CoastNov 30th, 2016
