On the Water

Fishing St. Lucie River

The St. Lucie River, flowing through Jensen, provides a fantastic inshore and nearshore fishing playground. We navigate the deeper channels and shallower flats, targeting species that thrive in these brackish and coastal waters. Expect a great bite for Mangrove Snapper and Lane Snapper around the oyster bars and docks, with Cobia often making appearances along the channel edges, especially in the warmer months. A charter out of the St. Lucie River is perfect for anglers looking for a variety of species without venturing far offshore. The fishing here is consistent year-round, but spring and fall often bring the most active bites for a wide range of fish.

Captain and the crew are top notch! I have fished all over the east coast from New England to Florida, party boats, charters, you name it. Captain Travis and his mate Matt are one of the best, if not the best crews I have fished with. His tackle matches him, top notch. Even…
