Drops in Fort Pierce

New to this,have a great area offshore but of course it's closed to any bottom fishing.Anyone have suggestions for deep dropping other than the Oculina Bank?

Try 600-630 for some consistent tilefish action. The canyons due east produce very well too. The main obstacle is the current, have to use lots of weight.

Thanks for the info. Was actually considering the canyons once the sea lays down.What should I anticipate to surface from the canyons? Do queens and silks run that deep?

Got out over the weekend...a little sloppy :shock: but did okay. Appreciate the heads up Scott. First time doing this and we boated three tiles. Forgot just how tasty those buggers are.Now the Mrs is eager to get me back out for more. Thanks again.
