Sebastian Inlet Report


04-29-14 TUESDAY: A FEW SNOOK AND RED HOOK-UPS, JACKS, A FEW SPANISH MACKEREL AND A SMATTERING OF OTHER SPECIES 

This morning winds are blowing out of the South-Southeast at 6 mph and gusting to 9. There is a moderate chop on the water, but no NOAA advisories at this time (8:45 a.m.) 
We received an update from inlet regular Mike Ricciardi of Vero Beach who fished the north jetty yesterday morning. Mike reported a slow day, with a few exciting hook-ups. Tony Swiderski of Sebastian had a couple of Snook hook-ups in the early morning hours; however the fish were oversized and returned to the water. Chuck Fischer of Satellite Beach landed an oversized C/R Redfish in the early morning as well. A few big Jacks came over the rails; Mike landed one along with a mid-sized Black Margate. Only two good sized Spanish Mackerel came over the rails, unlike Sunday, when the bite was hot and the fish were big, in the 5 - 7 lb. range. Word spreads fast and many regulars were out trying to get their Mackerel, but no schools made appearances yesterday. Mike reported schools of mullet making their way in and out of the inlet, but only saw one busted up by Snook. 

Our first photo features Luke Vila of Kissimmee with a large Ladyfish he landed. Luke reported many Jacks, Blues and Ladyfish biting in the evening hours. He was using shrimp and released everything unharmed. 

Al Joslyn was fishing the beach at sunrise and hooked up with a Whiting. Unfortunately, a Shark got it before Al could reel it in.
