INDIAN RIVER INLET FISHING REPORT
July 20th, 2011

Heat wave!! 100 degree temps in the forecast for Thursday and and Friday.

As usual in the heat, the best striper fishing is at night. Live eels have become the bait of choice, followed by sand fleas and dark plugs/bucktails.

Flounder are hitting very well in the inlet. They are right up against the rocks so be prepared to lose some rigs. White 4" swimming mullet Gulp are the flounder ticket.

A few blues have been moving through on the incoming water. The toggers are reporting better action lately on live fleas and green crabs.

The surf is hit and miss. We had good fishing Tuesday morning at 3R's then had zero on Conquest Wednesday morning. A mixed bag of spot, kings and sand perch are here. We did get one report of croakers on Dewey beach. Fishbites bloodworm alternative and fresh bunker are the two baits you needs to take to the beach.
