Sebastian



A change in wind direction this morning which has flattened out conditions for our anglers. Winds are blowing out of the West at 3 mph and there is a light chop on the water. That's good news for our anglers and for the beach that has been eroding with the Northeast winds. 

Yesterday, we saw a decent Black Drum bite in the morning, according to Mike Ricciardi of Vero Beach. Mike, Tony Swiderski and Mike White all limited out on Black Drum, but Mike White added a nice 24.5" Red, by free-lining live shrimp. Dead shrimp and clams were the baits of choice for the Black Drum. Diane Buyce of Melbourne landed a slot Pompano, 6 - 8 Whiting came over the rails and one big Jack in the 6 - 8 lb. range was landed as well. 

The afternoon was less exciting, but we saw one big Black Drum and a nice Pompano in coolers in the late afternoon, along with a few Blues that were coming over the rails. Richard Pearce of Sebastian landed a 20" slot Red that he released, along with a good sized Black Drum. Alberto Morales reported that several Black Drum and Pompano were landed from noon - 4:00 p.m. but it wasn't real active.


"Bucktail at Sunrise" was taken by Mike Ricciardi, he had to set the mood for the day and by looking at the cleaning table, it worked! Nice photo Mike, thanks!
