9 Dophin, one bull. 8/3/2013 Fishing Report, Saint lucie county. Stuart fishing report

Even though tropical depression Dorian was forming over the top of  us, we were able to catch 9 dolphin with one small bull. We started out at Jensen beach causeway, throwing my new 8ft net that I just bought from Freddy at the Snook nook the night before. We were able to get a couple dozen mullets and several pin fish. We then headed to the bull shark to see if I could pick up a few sardines before I headed off. With little luck at the bull shark, we ran south looking for more bait and keeping a close  eye on the storm that was forming over us. The weather seemed like it was deteriorating, so we went In Jupiter inlet and pulled up to the sand bar where we caught more bait and did a little inshore fishing. After that, we decided to take one last peek out the inlet before heading back north and low and behold it started to lay down. We pushed east  where we spotted birds on a turtle and found a school of  large dolphin. I was in the crow's-nest throwing artificial at them, they were not interested one bit. They just seemed to disappear, so we pushed on. After about five more miles, I spotted more birds doing the dolphin flutter. I new we were in fishy water. Then we spotted a 40ft plastic 6in drain pipe, within seconds we had are first dolphin on. Within 20 min we had 9 of the eleven dolphin, one was a small bull. Great day on the water!
