Sebastian Inlet Report

10-16-12 TUESDAY: REDS, SPANISH MACKEREL, JACKS AND MANGROVE SNAPPER 

It's a real pretty morning at the inlet. Winds are blowing out of the North at 10 mph and there is a light chop on the water. 

We received an update from inlet regular Mike Ricciardi of Vero Beach who was on the north jetty yesterday from 9:00 a.m .- 1:00 p.m. Mike reported a slow, but not terrible morning on the north jetty. Tony Swiderski of Sebastian landed a short Snook 27.5" before dawn and that was the only Snook he heard about all morning. 4 - 5 oversized Reds came over the rails, Mike landed a keeper at 22", as did Chuck Fischer of Satellite Beach. One Spanish Mackerel was landed and two Mangrove Snapper were landed during Mike's time on the jetty. A lot of Jacks were present and biting. Mike said the water was dirty and one big Sailcat was landed.

We received some photos and good news from Nam Bui and friends from Orlando.  The men were able to fish the incoming and outgoing tides that evening and Nam reported a lot of Reds and Snook, oversized and slot. Vinh landed a C/R 38" Snook and also a keeper at 32". He also hooked up with some species of Ray that jumped about 5' out of the water before spitting the hook. Nam landed a 29" C/R Red and a 31" slot Snook. The highlight of the evening was Phillip Ping. Phillip has been fishing the inlet regularly for the past year and had yet to land his slot Snook, until that night. Phillip landed a 31" keeper Snook using a homemade bucktail. 

Our first photo features Phillip Ping of Orlando with a 31" slot Snook, his first keeper!

Photo two is of Nam Bui of Orlando with a 29" C/R Red. 
 

Photo three features Robert Young of Orlando with a real nice Permit he landed off the north jetty.
