Capt. John Meskauskas - Stuart

Most of the good fishing has been on the grass flats and along the mangroves of the lower Indian River. Days have been a mixed bag of fish including Snook, Pompano, Ladyfish, and Bluefish. Simple weighted flies like Chartreuse/White Clousers and Schminnows have worked best. The night fishing for Snook under the lights has picked up. A lot of the dock lights have been fixed since the storms and night trips are an excellent sight fishing experience. You can see the Snook cruising and popping small baitfish in the shadows and directly under the lights. Clear intermediate lines are key to keep the fish at ease. Throw small white flies like Polar Fiber Minnows, Eat Me Flies, and Ole Florida's What Up Dock.
