Trip Summary

The month of March has been up and down. There's so many different factors that mess with a fisherman but that's what makes it so much more exciting when you do land that big fish. We've had some high winds and rough seas most days but we're still able to find a few decent fish, plus there's been some dredging going on in Sebastian Inlet and that has seemed to push out our big resident snook. Sebastian Inlet has been slow on the snook and redfish bite since February. There's been a few snook and redfish caught in the inlet but you have to bring lots of bait, leader, and hooks because the schools of bluefish are relentless on the baits and tackle. If you're into keeper bluefish and lots of action then that's definitely the place to go right now. Tripletail are being caught on the crab pots all throughout the lagoon and pompano have been found in good numbers near the inlet. The big migrating manta rays have just recently shown up schooling off the beach near Sebastian this week and they're holding some decent cobia with them. Also there have been many blacktip and spinner sharks up and down the beach.

Spring Break Time
Spring Break Time
March 11, 2024
It's coming into spring break time, so we'll have limited spots available. We get booked up pretty quick this time of year. Let's start off with the weather, we'll it's been hit or miss as usual. It's been windy, rainy, and cold most of February. March should be warming up a bit though. When the days are available offshore trips have been very productive. We've had a few nice days in the last couple weeks, so last minute decisions to run out have paid off. The snapper bite has been amazing. Nice sized mangrove and lane snapper, triggerfish, sheepshead, pompano, bluefish, and kingfish, along with an occasional cobia have all been taking the bait. Inshore on the other hand has been hit or miss. The heavy winds have been making the lagoon very dirty. With dirty water makes it almost impossible to site fish anything unless they're active on top. The cold fronts and heavy winds have put a damper on most days but we're managing. The snook bite at the inlet has been tough as well. There's been a solid 10 degree difference in water temps from the ocean side to the river side. One day is hot the next day is not. The inlet has been holding a decent amount of jack crevalle which offer an awesome fight and there has been some occasional monster bluefish around. There's been a good number of blacktip and spinner sharks being caught along the beach and nearshore reefs. When mother nature allows us, we're having good luck on the nearshore reefs catching weakfish and lane snapper. The big manta rays have started to show up outside the inlet and if you're lucky they'll have some cobia tagging along with them looking for an easy meal. Bowfishing has been excellent at night. We've found some solid spots in one of the lakes that offers some fantastic trips. Tons of tilapia everywhere you look, some customers are getting upwards of 300 shots a night. The day trips are ok, but nighttime is where it's at for bowfishing out here.
