Sebastian Inlet Report


25 lb Permit!


10-06-11 THURSDAY: REDS, SNOOK, BLUES AND SPANISH MACKEREL

We have a good chance of seeing rain off and on today. There are clouds over the inlet and the wind is blowing out of the East-Northeast at 14 mph. The water is pretty churned up today and we could see waves breaking over the jetties, go prepared to get wet if you head to the inlet.

Blues are starting to get pretty thick and have some good size to them. Updates of a morning Snook and Red biteand a the afternoon some real nice Spanish Mackerel and large Blues.
Mike  sent in an update and two terrific photos from yesterday. Mike reported the Red and Snook bite slowed some from the prior day. Mike landed three Reds, two C/R at 28" and one keeper at 26". Mullet remain the prime bait for Reds and Snook. Black Drum was landed at slack tide around 6:00 a.m. Several Snook were landed but all were oversized and returned to the water. The biggest news of the morning was a 33", 25 lb Permit he landed on dead shrimp. The big Permit took the bait about half way down the jetty on the north side the angler fought it over multiple lines, around the tip of the north jetty and finally netted it on the inlet side by the weather station. Not many anglers could have handled that fighting episode.  AWESOME catch!
