Sebastian Inlet Report





























04-26-12 THURSDAY: BLUES AND LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING ELSE 

What a gorgeous morning at the Sebastian Inlet! Winds are blowing out of the West-Southwest at 4 mph and there is a light ripple on the water. 

Fishing has been slow with a variety of species being landed in small numbers. The only thing biting off the north jetty yesterday morning were small but keeper sized Blues according to Mike Ricciardi of Vero Beach who fished from 6:00 - noon. Mike was targeting Pompano and was using clams and dead shrimp, but Blues will normally take just about anything, he limited out with 10. Mike reported that Spanish Mackerel were breaking the water feeding on small bait fish but none found their way to the north jetty anglers. 

Our first photo is of Mike with his catch of Blue fish.Photo two is of Russell Terpening of Palm Bay with  decent Flounder landed off the north jetty. Russell had one finger mullet to use for bait and the rest were pinfish. When he threw the finger mullet out, it was hit immediately by this nice Flounder. Russell may have spent the rest of the morning trying to disguise pinfish to look like finger mullet! 

Photo three is Vinh who landed and released 2 undersized Snook using a swimming plug; he is featured with a 24" Snook prior to its release. 

Photo four is of two unidentified anglers fishing the rocks of the Tide Pool on Tuesday. The photo was taken from the south side of the inlet.
