Blake and Natasha with a nice red.
Early this week we had a good redfish night in Sebastian Inlet but the bite died off with the full moon. The snook bite during the day by boat is still very slow even as the waters have been warming up a bit. The bite should improve this week as the moon slowly disappears. The beach bite has been great with a lot of Spanish Mackerel, jacks and Bluefish with a few small barracuda and sharks mixed in. The whiting and weakfish are plentiful from the boat too using live or dead shrimp and fish bites. Cobia are on rays a few miles offshore and if that water stays in that 68 degree or a few degrees warmer, it should remain plentiful on rays and the nearshore/offshore reefs.
Inshore, the pompano have been thick around the islands and the trout, redfish and small snook are scattered around the mangrove shorelines. Tripletail are along the channel markers and the Storm Coastal Shrimp have been working well for us.
Next week will be a bit windy but the fishing should get better with the moon going away and the water warming up a bit. Look for more snook and redfish in the inlet and inshore, as well as cobia and possibly some tarpon nearshore.
