Inshore bite around Grant/Sebastian has been tough. There’s been very little bait the last several weeks most likely due to all of the rain, but there is some decent numbers near the inlet. That said, there has been plenty of action from trout, jacks, juvenile grouper and snapper with a few snook and redfish in the mix. Nearshore was tough last week with the rains and wind. Again, very little bait but there are a few schools that are pretty small around, you just have to hunt them down. When you find them, you should be able to catch plenty of jacks and sharks with some kingfish and mackerel in the mix, but it’s been tough to get through the sharks to get the tarpon to eat, however not impossible. We have had our best luck on tarpon away from any mullet schools but the sharks are still a problem. We need a few weeks of no rain and some north winds to push some clean water into the lagoon from the ocean and the bite inshore should get better.

The Ocean Obsession out of Sunrise Marina in Port Canaveral lit them up! “Sunday’s red snapper trip in the books! We had ourselves a full limit with some studs and a few bonus variety snappers. Check us out all week, the weather looks good and the fishing looks better”.
