Dom S.

Anyone have any good "spots' in the Port St. Lucie area? I've been fishing the three Lakes east of Southbend and have had sporatic luck. Have had some luck on late afternoons with no wind using a top water popper. Need to find out about some other places in the area so I don't fish this one out! LOL.... Thanks for your help guys. Oh, any ideas about the St. Lucie River? Planning on renting a canoe from Prima Vista and perhpas doing some Snook fishing?

I have made a reservation with a guide on lake Monroe for my next trip. The link to the map is great. As I said in my earlier posts I really liked the lake and the guide I have been talking to, Eddie, sounds like a super guy. He told me it's the slowest part of the year and he even said "Save your money and go in the Spring" but I want to go now AND in the spring. Sounds like a pretty honest guy. My trip is for the 12th of September. Looking forward to it. I am still looking for some good places to fish in Port St. Lucie if anyone has any ideas? Thanks

I rented a boat on Lake Monroe with my Brother, Saturday (the 8th), can you take a minute and give me your opinion?? I reserved the boat 6 weeks ago and called the Marina several times. On each occasion I asked him about the fishing and he was very informed. He also told me the GPS would be "marked" with where to fish. We got to the marina at 5:50am and the first thing out of the guy that was there's mouth was, I'm not a bass fisherman so I don't know where to send you! No one had been out fishing on the boat so there was nothing marked on the GPS. He was not sure how everything worked and did not turn on the livewell so all the live bait I bought died rather quickly. The boat was great but we did not know where to fish. I used some of the advice from this site and looked for rivers running into the lake with some current. Even found a little lake about 100 yards into the woods with the smallest of passgae ways to it. Unfortunately we did not catch any bass, crappie or bluegills. My brother did catch a Garr, about 10 lbs. That was exciting but for the $400+ I spent I really would have liked a bass. Lake Monroe seems like a great lake for fishing. I am going to pay for a guide to take me and my bro at the end of this month. Any suggestions? Dom

You guys are awesome. Thanks so much. We're renting a boat and putting it in in Sanford at 6:00am. I love the early morning for fishing. When you say to use frogs, do you mean live frogs or artificials? Sorry if that's a amateur question. Mr Lite, I normally stya close to my house and enjoy the calm of some small lakes near me but I would love to find some nice bass producing lakes. I am going to write down the lures you all mentioned and try to make sure I buy them before I leave. Thanks again guys.

Hello, I am fairly new to Bass fishing having moved to Florida from NY about 8 years ago. I do fairly well at local lakes near me in Port St. Lucie. I rented a boat 2 weeks ago with my Brother on Lake Harris in Central Floruda. I had never been there before and we didn't even get a bite. I was hoping to be more prepared for our next trip, which is this Saturday, the 8th of August on Lake Monroe. If anyone out there has any ideas or hints on what we can do please reply to this post. I hope in time that I can be as helpful as some of you are! Thanks Dom
