Sebastian Inlet Report






12-26-14 FRIDAY: BLACK DRUM, BLUES, TROUT, SHEEPSHEAD, REDS, A FEW POMPANO AND FLOUNDER 

We have a lot of cloud cover at the inlet this morning. Winds are blowing out of the North-Northwest at 7 mph, gusting to 13 and the water is calm. 

We received an update from Tommy Turowski at the Sebastian Inlet Bait and Tackle Shop this morning who reported a good Speckled Trout bite. A lot of Blues, Sheepshead and Black Drum have been making appearances along with Reds and a few Flounder and Pompano. Inlet regular Mike Ricciardi of Vero Beach fished on Tuesday and reported that the morning hours produced some good sized Black Drum in the 20" - 24" range, twenty five to thirty fish came over the rails on the incoming tide. Mike went home with two.
Sally Baughman of Jackson, WY is featured in our first photo today. Sally landed this nice Black Drum on Tuesday and confirmed our report from Mike that plenty of them were coming over the rails. She landed four that were the perfect eating size, Jim landed three that were returned to the water, as they had plenty! 
 Newlywed Josh Messerschmidt of Alaska landed this big Black Drum and apparently got at least two good catches.
Troy Roecker of Palm Bay is featured in photo three. Troy landed this Black Drum.
The last photo is Khoi Van of Melbourne who landed his first Black Drum.
