Indian River Lagoon Fishing Report – May
May 1, 2019 | by Steve Beare
May will continue to bring warmer temperatures and the bite should remain hot following great April action. Redfish should be more active this month and easy to spot with our clear water conditions. The clean water makes these Redfish a bit spooky but quite a few have been caught. Scale down your leaders and terminal tackle as this clean water makes everything easier to see. The Storm Mangrove Minnow and flies such as sliders have proven effective. Snook fishing will continue to be good along the mangrove shorelines, seawalls, docks and inlets. Enjoy May Snook fishing but remember, Snook season closes May 31st. Seatrout will continue to more active at first light. Toss a topwater plug like a Zara Spook or Skitterwalk in the morning and a live shrimp under your favorite popping cork as you move to deeper water as the water temps rise. The fishing has been great, proving there is never a bad time to fish the India River along the Treasure Coast.
