Sebastian Inlet Report

08-12-11 FRIDAY: MANGROVE SNAPPER, SPANISH MACKEREL, SNOOK AND REDS 

It's real nice at the inlet this morning. It's already pretty warm with winds blowing out of the Southeast at 4 mph, the no see 'ems were thick earlier but now it's even getting too warm for them! 

With all the bait in the water, particularly greenies we were expecting to see Spanish Mackerel following them. They could actually be seen but weren't biting until yesterday when a few large Macks were landed.  Mangrove Snapper have been cooperative in the morning hours, before it gets too hot. Nights and early mornings are bringing us catch and release Snook and oversized Reds. Every now and then a straggler Flounder, Permit, Bluerunner or Lookdown will make an appearance.

The Indian River has been producing some real nice Spotted Seatrout.  There have been some mullet holding on top of the flats you should throw around them with a big topwater popper (a chug bug) for a hook up.
