Sebastian Inlet Report


11-18-11 FRIDAY: BLACK DRUM,
 SMALL POMPANO, SNOOK, REDS 
AND ELUSIVE MACKS

This morning winds are blowing out of the East at 25 mph, gusting to 30 and the water is really churned up. The few people that are out on the north jetty this morning are dressed in rain gear to protect themselves from waves coming over the rails. It looks like a washing machine out there! Needless to say, there is a small craft advisory in effect through Saturday night and it could be extended through the weekend. Always check the coastal forecast prior to going offshore.

Mike  was on the north jetty again yesterday and reported the bite was slow in the morning hours. The most active time of the morning was between 7:00 - 9:30, the end of the outgoing tide. Black Drum was the best bet; Mike landed his limit of 5 that were between 16" - 25". Several other anglers landed Black Drum during that time as well. The Pompano were scarce and short in the morning hours. Thanks for the update Mike!
Tommy at the Sebastian Inlet Bait & Tackle Shop reported the afternoon was on the slow side as well. There were some big Spanish Mackerel spotted but no one could get them to bite. More small Pompano were landed as were a couple of Snook and Reds. Thanks Tommy!
