What was just unpopulated land in the ‘50s is now a buzzing city with some of the best fishing in this part of Florida. Hopping aboard a Port St. Lucie fishing charter will put give you the chance to explore the St. Lucie River, as well as the variety of inlets, creeks, and lakes – and the mighty Atlantic is just a stone’s throw away!
If you’re after Snook and Jack Crevalle, the mangroves of the St. Lucie River are your best bet. Visiting the inlets will put you in a great position to target Tarpon, Pompano, Snapper, Trout, and Redfish, too. The deeper waters of Bethel Shoal Buoy and St. Lucie Hump hide big Snapper and Grouper, as well as Mahi Mahi and Tuna.
If you’re after some family fun in the sun, a half day trip is the way to go. You can relax and enjoy the inshore fishery making some great memories. However, if you’re after some bigger fish in deeper waters, consider booking a full day trip so you have enough time to get to the fishing spots as well as reel in some trophy fish.
If you want to check out the St. Lucie River bite, head to the docks of the North Fork Aquatic Reserve or the North River Shores. To visit the deeper waters for a little more rod-bending action, visit Jensen Beach and Ocean Breeze and take your pick.
