Hutchinson Island enjoys an extraordinary locale for sport fishing, with the Indian River Lagoon to the west, the Jupiter Inlet just to the south, and the Gulf Stream just a few miles away on the Atlantic side. The combination of fresh and tropical saltwater lures anglers to the area between St. Lucie Inlet off Stuart and the Ft. Pierce Inlet for easy access to South Florida fishing at its finest for those visiting and living at Ouanalao Residences & Resort
The nearly two-mile wide Intracoastal Waterway sits just to the west side of Ouanalao, for an easy jumping off point and a more quiet, leisurely day on the water for fishermen enjoying the sport by kayak or paddleboard. Fishermen may also spot dolphins or manatees while exploring from this vantage point.
The Indian River is a legendary shallow-water inshore fishing destination – a saltwater body that runs almost a third the length of Florida’s east coast. This part of the state is also known for mangroves growing along the water’s edge, where the root system and shallow waters can attract a great catch.
Ouanalao residents may enjoy embracing their inner fisherman, with fishing charters in the region ranging from deep sea and flat bottom fishing, to spear and kayak fishing, and all manner of offshore and inshore fishing to experience. This Stuart fishing guide offers an extensive list of the types of fish species that anglers will discover in this region, from Sailfish and Snook, to Wahoo and Yellowfin Tuna.
Fishing techniques can vary, but with expert guides leading your fishing charter, the greatest catch is waiting for you!
