Sebastian Inlet Report














09-19-13 THURSDAY: REDS, MANGROVE SNAPPER, SNOOK, BLUE RUNNERS AND A FEW SPANISH MACKEREL 

We've had a significant amount of rain at the inlet this morning and it's kept a lot of folks off the jetties. Winds are blowing out of the East at 12 mph, gusting to 17 and the water is rough. Sometimes rough conditions make for great fishing. The Snook and Reds don't seem to mind. There have been some nice Reds landed over the past few days, a lot of oversized and a lot of keepers too. Mangrove Snapper, Snook (most have been oversized), Blue Runners and a few Spanish Mackerel have started to appear according to Tommy Turowski at the Sebastian Inlet Bait and Tackle Shop.

We received an update from Randy Gastfield who fished the south side Friday night and landed four C/R snook, one undersized at 25" and three oversized at 33", 37" and 38". Randy landed a nice 27" Redfish that he got to take home. He was using soft plastics for both species. 
 Photo one features Steven Bozutto of Vero Beach. Steven was fishing the north jetty when he landed and released a couple of oversized Reds before landing the 27" keeper, using mojarra. 

Eli Nunez a/k/a the "Reverend" is in our second photo with a nice slot Red he landed during a real good Mangrove Snapper bite. Eli landed one of the three slot Reds that came over the rails.
