Sebastian Inlet Report

08-28-12 TUESDAY: CONDITIONS HAVE IMPROVED! 

What a difference a day makes. Yesterday we had rough weather, lots of wind and rain from TS Isaac which spawned some tornados in Indian River County. We hope all of our anglers came through it unscathed. This morning is a different story all together. The sun is shining, there's a breeze blowing at 10 mph out of the South-Southwest and there is a moderate chop on the water. There are no fishermen on the jetty this morning, but we have some surfers in the water taking advantage of a small swell.

We received an update from Desmond of Melbourne who braved the elements yesterday and went out on the south side for about 20 minutes. Desmond reported thick seaweed and the only activity he saw were finger mullet, but nothing was hitting them. Desmond moved to the north side for another 20 minutes and said the seaweed wasn't as bad. Snook were slamming mullet at the end of the jetty, but he couldn't get any to bite. 

Our first photo today is of Shawn Robinson of West Melbourne. Shawn landed this Mangrove Snapper in the  morning and was one of two anglers to land anything in the early morning hours. 

Our second photo is of Lena Breedwell of Sorento. Lena was the other angler who landed a Mangrove Snapper she was using live shrimp.
