Which fish look best today at Jensen Beach
The same day scores differently for each fish: water temperature, wind, tide and seas count differently for a snook than for a sheepshead. Today’s read for Jensen Bch, species by species.
Best bet: Snook.

80°F water is right in the snook range.
Wind: 8 mph N, gusts 16
- Redfish83Prime
80°F water is right in the redfish range.
Wind: 8 mph N, gusts 16
Where to look
Oyster bars, grass flats and mangrove shorelines; they push shallow on a rising tide.

80°F water is a little warm for trout; the bite starts to ease. Still warming, which pushes it further past the range.
Wind: 8 mph N, gusts 16
Where to look
Grass flats and pothole edges; deeper holes and canals when it's cold.

Scores conditions for each fish, not where they are or when a run starts. Water temperature is today’s reading applied to the whole week, so a cold front further out won’t show here until the water follows. Temperature ranges are rules of thumb for Florida inshore water; the snook range is from published research.
About Jensen Beach
Jensen Beach spans the Indian River Lagoon onto Hutchinson Island, giving you protected grass flats and causeway structure on one side and open Atlantic beach on the other. This is an official Martin County feed rather than a business's — a plain, wide look at the surf and the sand, which is exactly what makes it useful. Hutchinson Island is one of the densest sea turtle nesting beaches in the world, and the county keeps lighting and beach access managed around it through the summer.
What this camera is good for
- Surf and swell on the open Atlantic
- How much beach the tide has left
- Water color after a Lake Okeechobee discharge
- Whether to fish the beach or the lagoon today
This is a still image rather than live video. The page pulls the newest frame automatically, and the camera posts a new one every several minutes.

Common questions
- Is the Jensen Beach camera live?
- Yes, though it is a still image rather than video. The page pulls the camera's newest frame automatically.
- Does it cost anything to watch?
- No. Salty Forecast is completely free — no ads, no account, no paid tier, and nothing on this page is behind a sign-up.
- What are the tides at Jensen Beach today?
- Today's high and low tide times for Jensen Beach are on the tide chart page, drawn from the NOAA station at Jensen Beach Causeway Park. Tide state changes what the beach looks like on camera — at low water the beach is at its widest.
- Why does the camera look hazy or dark?
- Live cameras sit outdoors: rain on the lens, salt spray, fog and low light all affect the picture. Night views are lit only by whatever is nearby. If the feed is down entirely, that is the operator's camera rather than this page — the conditions above still update.
