Let’s Get Jiggy With It – A Guide to Inshore Jig Head Selection
September 29, 2026

Jigheads can turn into a tackle-store rabbit hole fast—but choosing the right one comes down to three questions: Where should the lure travel, what must it pass through, and does the hook fit the bait?

Decent week of fishing with some good sized bait schools along the beaches before the cold front. Cold front later in the week brought some nice weather but we will see if it brings more bait.

The Stick Marsh is still giving up some good bites once again but where you fish is the reason why. If the spillway is flowing coming out of Garcia then that’s where the action is at.

Since it got windy last week, we finally got out there yesterday and we’re back out there today. It seems like the bunker disappeared with the wind and we’re just going out with frozen minnows at this moment.

Not A lot to Report from the Inlet
September 28, 2026

Hello all you Sebastian Inlet fans and fanatics, I hope everyone enjoyed the weekend, the weather was nice, but the fishing took a drastic turn from being great, to being pretty slow due to the nasty winds and waves we had from last Thursday on through the weekend.

Heightened Water Levels, Influx of Bait
September 28, 2026

The water levels have rose throughout the backwaters of Mosquito Lagoon and the region’s backwaters over the past week. With the recent rains and NE winds the water levels have came up which along with the influx of bait pods just reassures that Fall is in the air.

Dude, where’s my beach?
September 28, 2026

It was tough to do much fishing over the back half of last week on account of the ocean absorbing most of the beach. That’s how it was down on the south end of brevard county, anyway…

Stick Marsh Spillways Flowing
September 21, 2026

The spillways are flowing on the Stick Marsh again this past week. This time we weren’t the only ones fishing it. Two other boats beat us there so boat positioning in the small area wasn’t the best for us.
