Our web cam photos haven't updated since yesterday, we are aware of the situation and are addressing the issue. Believe us, it's a beautiful morning at the inlet! Winds are blowing out of the West-Southwest at 2 mph and gusting to 4 mph. With very little wind blowing, the no see 'ums are out in force, take insect repellent with you if you head to the inlet. The water is clean and calm this morning and looks like a great day for boating or surf fishing. Always check the coastal forecast prior to going offshore.
Tommy Turowski of the Sebastian Inlet Bait and Tackle Shop reported that two nice Bonita were landed off the north jetty this morning, around 8 lbs each! That's rare for the north jetty, they are usually found in deeper waters. SISP Ranger Ed Perry reported tons of small ones in the water and he saw one big one, but this is a real treat, indeed! Mangrove Snapper continue to bite if you can get the right baits. They have been hitting greenies, mojarra and small shrimp.
Our first angler today is Tavian Campanelli. Tavian and his dad, Brian went fishing on Tavian's 13th birthday. They were fishing from the north catwalk using live mullet to land this beautiful 31" C/R Red. After a quick measure and photo, it was returned back to the inlet unharmed. Tavian's words were "Best birthday EVER"!! He and his brother Aiden (age 10) also landed some Mangrove Snapper to take home for the table. Congratulations and happy birthday Tavian!
Our second photo is AMAZING. Duc Nguyen landed this 54 lb Redfish on the south side of the State Park. Duc weighed it with a Boga Grip and two Park volunteers took this photo and witnessed the catch. Duc may have set a Florida record as the current record is 52 lbs, 5 oz. He will have to submit all the necessary paper work to the IGFA and make sure his scale is calibrated correctly, but it will be worth the trouble if he tops the record!
