Favorable conditions draw anglers to St. Lucie Inlet for snook and redfish as high tide hits at 6:56 a.m.
TODAY: Tides run a moderate range Monday, with a near-zero low overnight setting up a strong morning high — favorable conditions for anglers and boaters working the St. Lucie Inlet and nearshore flats.
TIDE SCHEDULE — STUART (March 16, 2026): - Low: 12:32 a.m. — 0.0 ft - High: 6:56 a.m. — 2.7 ft - Low: 1:04 p.m. — 0.1 ft - High: 7:10 p.m. — 2.6 ft
ON THE WATER: The morning high at 6:56 a.m. (2.7 ft) is the day's peak. Anglers targeting snook, redfish, and tarpon along the Indian River Lagoon and inlet should plan to be on the water by first light. The tide will run out hard through late morning and into early afternoon, bottoming at 0.1 ft around 1:04 p.m. That midday slack provides a natural break; expect better action to resume as the flood builds toward the evening high of 2.6 ft at 7:10 p.m. Shallow-draft boaters should exercise caution near sandbars and oyster bars during both afternoon and overnight lows. Tide predictions are for Stuart and may vary slightly at nearby locations along the Treasure Coast, according to public records.
