03-27-12 TUESDAY: SNOOK, BLACK DRUM, SEA TROUT, SHEEPSHEAD, LADYFISH, JACKS AND REDS
It's another beautiful morning at the Sebastian Inlet. Winds are blowing out of the East at 12 mph and there is a moderate chop on the water. We are dredging the sand trap west of the bridge. Please use caution when navigating around the dredge site.
Mike of Vero Beach fished the north jetty yesterday morning and reported that Ladyfish and Jacks plagued the bite before dawn, but after first light, hungry Snook got into the mix. Mike had one that broke off but was successful on the second one, a keeper at 32". There were 2 -3 other slot Snook that came over the rails and 5 - 6 others that were over/under or break offs. A couple of nice Black Drum were landed by those fishing for Snook. Mike left the jetty with his "prize" at 8:45 a.m.
Tommy of the Sebastian Inlet Bait and Tackle Shop reported the Black Drum bite continued through the afternoon and couple of fish in the 30 lb range came over the rails! We're seeing Sheepshead, Flounder, a few Reds and lots of good sized Sea Trout, particularly in the evenings.
Our photo features Hank Christianson of Idaho with a good sized Pompano he landed off the north jetty using clams.
Our next photo today is of inlet regular Tony Swiderski of Sebastian with a slot Red and a nice Black Drum Friday morning.
