Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 13:52 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

For fishing, stronger tides are often favourable as they cause stronger currents and more motion on the sea bed. The above tidal coefficients give us an indication of how strong the tides are compared to their average. A value over 90 indicates very strong tides, known as spring tides. A low value indicates weak tides, known as neap tides. The tidal coefficient can range from 20 to 120 with a mean value of 70. A higher number usually indicates better fishing.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing. The graph below shows you the 3 hourly weather progression over the next 7 days. Scroll the graph left or right to see more.

Fishing Overview Stuart

Stuart, Florida sits at the crossroads of the Atlantic Ocean, St. Lucie Inlet, and the Indian River Lagoon, creating prime fishing conditions year-round. The combination of deep bluewater just offshore, current-swept inlets, and extensive backwater flats gives anglers a shot at everything from sailfish and mahi to snook, tarpon, and redfish in a single trip.

Seasonal patterns are crucial in Stuart. Winter brings peak sailfish action along the offshore ledges in 100–250 feet of water, especially when strong north winds push bait south. Kite fishing and trolling ballyhoo shine this time of year. Spring sees more mixed offshore bags with mahi, blackfin tuna, king mackerel, and cobia on the reefs and along color changes. Summer offers early-morning and nighttime inshore bites for snook and tarpon around bridges and the St. Lucie Inlet, while offshore anglers target mahi and bottom fish on the reefs. Fall is transition time, with mullet runs igniting explosive inshore action from snook, tarpon, jacks, and sharks along the beaches and inlet.

Habitat types range from deep offshore structure to skinny flats. Offshore, anglers focus on ledges, wrecks, and live bottom in 80–300 feet for sailfish, mahi, snapper, and grouper. The St. Lucie Inlet and nearby sandbars are prime for snook, tarpon, and pompano, especially at tide changes with clean green water pushing in. The Indian River Lagoon and St. Lucie River hold seagrass beds, mangrove shorelines, and oyster bars where redfish, trout, and sheepshead feed.

Common techniques offshore include slow-trolling or bump-trolling live baits like threadfin, sardines, and goggle-eyes for sailfish and kings, and trolling rigged ballyhoo for mahi and wahoo. For bottom fishing, anglers drop chicken rigs or knocker rigs with cut or live bait for snapper and grouper on reefs and wrecks. Inshore, the go-to approach for snook and tarpon is free-lining live mullet, pilchards, or croakers around bridge pilings, dock lights, and jetty rocks, especially at dawn, dusk, and at night.

Artificial lures play a big role around Stuart’s inshore waters. Topwater plugs and walk-the-dog baits excel at first light over grass flats for trout and redfish. Soft plastic jerkbaits and paddle tails on 1/8–1/4 oz jig heads produce around mangroves and oyster bars on moving water. For sight-fishing along the beaches in clear conditions, small jigs and sand flea imitations can be deadly on pompano, while spoons and swimbaits work for Spanish mackerel and bluefish.

Tactical tips for Stuart focus on timing, tides, and water clarity. Inshore, prioritize moving water—fish the first couple hours of incoming or outgoing tide around structure. When the water is clear, downsize leader to 20–30 lb fluorocarbon for more bites from pressured snook and trout; bump up to 40–60 lb around bridges and jetties to handle abrasion. Match your bait to the hatch by watching what baitfish are present—mullet, pilchards, or glass minnows—and choose similar-size lures or live baits.

Offshore, watch sea surface temperature and weed lines; mahi often stack along tight temperature breaks and well-formed weed edges. Use a spread of skirted ballyhoo and small lures staggered at different distances, and always keep a pitch rod rigged with a live bait or chunk for fish that appear close to the boat. Between the offshore grounds, inlet, and expansive estuary, Stuart offers a diverse, high-percentage fishery for anglers who pay attention to season, tides, and bait movement.

Interactive Fishing Map for the greater Stuart area

Beaches and Bays are ideal places for land-based fishing. If the beach is shallow and the water is clear then twilight times are usually the best times, especially when they coincide with a major or minor fishing time. Often the points on either side of a beach are the best spots. Or if the beach is large then look for irregularities in the breaking waves, indicating sandbanks and holes. We found 3 beaches and bays in this area.

Santa Lucea Beach - 8.29966879685km , Jensen Beach - 8.48433538394km , Bathtub Beach - 9.25119932011km

Harbours and Marinas can often times be productive fishing spots for land based fishing as their sheltered environment attracts a wide variety of bait fish. Similar to river mouths, harbour entrances are also great places to fish as lots of fish will move in and out with the rising and falling tides. There are 8 main harbours in this area.
