INDIAN RIVER INLET FISHING REPORT
August 22nd, 2011

The end of the summer is almost here. Hard to believe!! It means the best of fishing of the year is just a few short weeks away.

Bluefish are moving through the Inlet on the incoming tide during the daytime. It seems they will run 2-3 days ion a row then disappear for a day or two.

The striper bite has slowed down. This is typical for August. What bite there is has been at night on eels and dark plugs, shads and bucktails.

There are a pile of short flounder in the Inlet and in the bays. A few keepers in the mix but mostly 16-17 inch fish.

Croakers reported around Masseys Ditch.

Small croakers on the beach as well with kingfish, blues and sand perch in the mix too. The mullet run is just getting started.

Reminder: Tautog will be closed September 1-28
