Fort Pierce Mullet Run
Treasure Coast inlet fishing with strong current and deep cuts โ a natural staging area as pods leave the Space Coast and push south.
Updated September 26, 2026

About Fort Pierce
Fort Pierce Inlet and the adjacent Jetty Park beaches give anglers both rock and sand options. Deep cuts and moving water hold big predators when mullet schools arrive from the north.
This stretch bridges Space Coast timing and the later Southeast Florida pulse.
Why fish here during the run
- Inlet current and jetty structure concentrate bait.
- Less tourist density than Miami while still seeing solid late-season pods.
- Flexible shore approaches along Jetty Park.
Angler tips
- Fish the beach looking toward the jetty when birds work the trough.
- Moving tide + northeast wind remains the high-percentage pattern.
- Heavy braid and abrasion-resistant leaders for rocks and sharks.
Access & conditions notes
- Jetty Park and Fort Pierce Inlet public access points.
- Local tide station and Fort Pierce buoy for nearshore seas.
- Confirm park hours and any jetty closures after storms.
