03-16-12 FRIDAY: SHEEPSHEAD, SNOOK, BLACK DRUM, REDS, FLOUNDER, SEA TROUT, JACKS AND BLUES 

It's a beautiful morning at the inlet. Winds are blowing out of the East at 7 mph and there is a moderate chop on the water. Unfortunately a lot of seaweed has moved in, making it difficult to fish some areas. We have a beautiful weekend forecasted, get out and do a little fishing and send us your updates and photos!

We received an update from inlet regular Mike of Vero Beach who was on the north jetty. Two slot sized Snook were landed in the early morning hours as the tide turned from incoming to outgoing. A couple of Black Drum were landed on the tip of the jetty on live shrimp. Mike was fishing for Pompano using clams and landed two keepers and one short. There were a total of 8 - 10 Pompano landed during his time on the jetty. Anglers were using sand fleas, shrimp, clams and jigs for the Pompano, but clams were the most successful. 
Tommy  of the Sebastian Inlet Bait and Tackle Shop reported a good Flounder bite on the flats this morning  another angler was in the shop and reported he had landed four early this morning. Sea Trout remain active on the flats as well.

Christopher fished the beach earlier and his first fish of the day was the big 36" C/R Red in our photo today. The Red was released unharmed right after the photo.
