Inshore Fishing Report April 11, 2007 Palm Beach / Jupiter

Well spring has arrived, bringing great inshore action with it. The Snook bite has been spectacular in both the Palm Beach and the Jupiter areas. The Snook have been hanging under docks, near seas walls and up under mangrove shorelines. The big Snook have been migrating out of the back rivers making there way towards the inlets. The average size Snook we have been catching is from 16" to 38". The best baits for the Snook have been live sand perch and live finger mullet. Artificial lures work also but they have to be presented right. The outgoing tide has been the best tide to fish but as long as the water is moving there are Snook to be caught.

The Palm Beach area has been on fire lately holding huge Jacks in the 25-pound class and also producing some nice trout also. The Snapper have also been really thick around the sea walls and dock pilings. There have been a couple surprise catches of some small Gag grouper and Jewfish lately also.

The freshwater bite should pick up rapidly do to our low water levels and water temps on the rise. The Peacock bass bite has been ok but should start to get really hot as summer approaches. The largemouth bass bite has been steady and has produced some decent fish lately in the 5 to 6 pound class. Live shiners and storm baits produce the best bite.

Well that is the report for the past few weeks. If you would like to test your luck against a hard pulling Snook or any of the above mentioned species. Give Capt.
