Thank you! Got it on sale on Amazon! 👕

Great report Andy! And as for the sea trout having worms, yeah some of them do, some of them don't. These fish that show up this time of year in the inlet are the ocean run fish, which are usually cleaner than the ICW fish. We had a few years that none of them we kept had any worms! You just never know. They are tasty, but I don't keep them anymore either. Fun to catch though, if you find them, you can usually catch a bunch of them!

@WayneLandry-m9n those trout come out of the Indian River. Weakfish are with the bluefish on the migration.

@charlesachinelli3857 well maybe some of them come out of the river, not all of them. The spotted weak fish I'm talking about run down the beaches along with the weak fish we catch on the beaches sometimes year round, and more so in the winter. So to get it straight, you have the spotted sea trout in the ICW, and along the beaches you have the weak fish, and the spotted weak fish that run together in the winter time, but they are around the beaches most times where the coquina reefs are that harbor baitfish. The weak fish have no limits, but the spotted sea trout ones do. If you take a spotted sea trout, and a spotted weak fish, and put them side by side, you can tell the difference. I used to fish them commercially back in the day. Cheers.

Good job Andy! Thanks.

Thank you! 🙏

That's awesome!

Flonder no keepers

@@michaelcash3827 It's a good sign that they're biting early in the season.

Thank you so much! 🙏 I greatly appreciate it.

I totally forgot about that! I’ll mention it in next report.

@SebastianInletFishing all good sir! I'll be mentioning it again in my next week's report as well since it's getting close for them to be in season. Last year's season was pretty good for them.

@@WayneLandry-m9n You from South Florida?

@leversforever9748 no sir, east central, brevard county.

It is cold! 🥶

Best inlet I've visited yet!

Thank you sir! You as well.

Happy Thanksgiving Snookman!

Thanks beother!

Lol. Should have been BROTHER..

Question, I’m going today at 7 am to Sebastian inlet to fish and I’ll be there all day with live and dead shrimp, I’m targeting sheepheads, small snook, and flounder, where should I go?

I would fish off the rocks west of the bridge.

Always a pleasure.. Happy Thanksgiving!

not sure why they are so protected people dive there and you can see that there is always at least 10 of them and they are active too not just sitting there

@itspapa3853 because 30 years ago there wasn't any. People kept them to the point that they were gone. Now they're kind of a nuisance because they congregate on the reef and take a lot of fish off of people's lines

@@captmojoe hey, there's no meat on those fish you posted! Lol.

@@captmojoe very cool. Thanks.

@@SebastianInletFishing yes it is. And I'm not a fan of anything below 70. Lol. But all good.

I don't mind colder nights, but sure hopes the weather warms up during the day!

​@SebastianInletFishing yeah, it will warm up because it will be sunny, but only in the 60's, and with a brisk NW wind in the teens, so it will feel cooler. Then Monday and Tuesday the winds switch to NNE, but light. Fishing should be picking up from now to then as the seas have dropped down to 1 to 2, with offshore winds to keep it calm. I went down today, and the water looked good, cleaned up a ton! And there were mullet in the north surf, but fishing was aliw everywhere I went.

Thank you Wayne!

You're welcome!

Thank you! 🙏

Thank you! 🙏

Thank you! 🙏

Awesome!

Thank you for the update!

Thanks Wayne! I hope this weather clears up because the seas are crazy! But it may continue as long as we have those 2 disturbances to the south.

From what I saw in the weather, it is supposed to lighten up some over the weekend. But this is florida, ya never know this time of year. Stay tuned!

Those areas, the catwalks were closed by FDOT back in early 2023, after hurricane Ian and Nichol gave us a visit. The under structure of the bridge was damaged, and pieces of concrete were falling down, plus the railings were in such bad shape, someone was going to get hurt or fut on them, so they closed them forever! New catwalks will be built under the new bridges when they are built.

So if I got a vest and hard hat I can still fish

Lol, no! There will be too much work to do, you won't have time. Gotta be done by July 1st!!

The yankees were parking there and leaving trash everywhere. They ruined it, just like the rest of Florida

I heard parking along the road was become a safety concern.

@ Thank you for the reply Andy. The signs 🪧 aren’t very nice looking, and I do feel bad about the Surfers and Fisherman losing access. Again, thank you.

Lol. Not really, because most north side people don't know where, and how to fish tge south side! It wasn't bad when the north jetty was closed during hurricane Nichol for several months in 2022 to 2023.

I’m hoping they complete this project sooner than July. One more week of fishing at the North Jetty until the summer.

@surfstarcc1 just an update on the fishing on the north jetty, I went down today and the black drum were biting pretty good, along with redfish, Jack's and a few Spanish mackerel. Dead shrimp was what the drum wanted. Oh, and I did see a few very nice bull whiting caught too. The finger mullet were scarce, and the weeds were pretty much gone. All the drum were at the tip on outgoing. Cheers!

@@WayneLandry-m9n thanks for the update!!! Only thing we were finding over the weekend was a bunch of Jack a few ladyfish and a couple blues.

Oh, and I forgot to mention, they were catching black drum on the tip of the south jetty also, beach side.

Not until 2026 when they build the new bridge

Thank you for answering. I appreciate what you do with the channel!

I don’t have any updates on that yet. Their target date is 2026 to begin construction. I’m sure more there will be more info about it soon.

@hungarianflounder9595 forgot to mention earlier, one of my friends went to the last sebastian commission meeting last month about the bridge project, and he told me they are NOT going to close the bridge at all. They will be starting, when they do, with the 2 north bound lanes on the west side of the existing bridge, then when that's done, close the existing bridge, use the new one for both north and south bound traffic, and start the south bound 2 lanes on the west side of the new bridge. That's all I've heard so far.

Awesome reporting as always Andy! Thanks so much for posting this info for us. I've had so many people ask what's going on with it, and I share what the district folks relayed to me. Rumors are abundant, but I will keep you folks updated with any news I get from them. Cheers!

Thank you! 🙏

I completely agree! Leaving them to dry out is the worst. There's also a problem when people catch live mullet off the jetty. They leave anything extra to dry out in the sun instead of just taking what they need and returning the rest.

I wouldn’t either.. but a lot of people say jack crevalle can be good to eat when prepared properly. They also say it has a firm flesh and great flavor, while others say it's a delicacy when cooked in brine and then seared. But I’ll wait for the snook bite.

Because you don't know how to cook them. If you fillet it properly like a bluefish Spanish mackerel. You can't freeze them has to be cooked immediately

​@@SebastianInletFishingexactly if you want to get crazy and soak it in Citrus nobody will know what it is. It tastes amazing

One of my buddies and I kept 5 of them about 2 or so pounds. We bled them asap, put them on ice then filleted them. He took them home and smoked them on his treager pellet smoker, man were they great!!

@WayneLandry-m9n it says in the old Florida cracker cookbooks, one of the most underrated eating fish if prepared properly
