Sebastian inlet fishing

The winds and weather this week made the fishing tough for us but we ended up getting some fish in the inlet and in the mangrove shorelines. The bite as Sebastian Inlet was good for Pompano, bluefish and Mackerel when the winds were out of the Northeast. Once the wind switched out of south, the water got dirty and the bite slowed down so we moved inshore and got some slot trout and small snook on artificials. Winds and waves were too high to get on the beach or outside the inlet to fish for the snook, reds and sharks.

This upcoming week, the winds should be light early and pickup for Wednesday and Thursday and then light again over weekend. Anglers interested in Pompano should be on the beaches if its fishable. If you can’t get on the beaches, the best bet is in and around the inlet. If it’s trout and snook that you’re after, fish the spoil islands and mangrove shorelines. Soft plastics have been producing the best results here.
