I’m Capt. Glyn Austin, the owner and operator of Going Coastal Fishing Charters. I’m a central Florida native who was born and raised in the Melbourne and Palm Bay area. It’s here where my love for fishing was nurtured. Now, that passion is now my full time job.
Another week of wind and dirty water put a slight damper on the fishing. If you can grind it out you can get some decent fish but the bite was difficult most of the week as we had our first real cold from of the year which made for some tough fishing.
Another week of relentless wind, rain and dirty water with the bait spread out and no big schools. Early in the week, we didn’t have much rain and light winds, but mid week the winds were relentless out of the North and Northeast and from the South late in the week.
With all of the wind and rain, the water in the entire lagoon from Palm Bay to Wabasso is looking pretty bad. It has some clarity close to the inlet, particularly with a strong east wind.
Wasn’t the best weather this week but the beginning and end of the week turned out not too bad…
Despite the heavy winds and rain, inshore fishing was good with snook, redfish, trout and jacks in on the action. The heavy winds pushed saltwater in the lagoon and pushed most of the freshwater to the west side of the lagoon.
More good inshore fishing with plenty of snook, redfish, trout and jacks. Live bait has been best but the topwater action is still decent if you are around any bait pod.
We had a good week of inshore fishing despite the north winds and tons of rain all week. North winds have kept us from running the beach looking for schools of mullet and tarpon.
Spent the week fishing inshore for snook, redfish and trout as the winds are blowing out of the north and the ocean is rough. Bite has been good on both artificial and live bait.
Beach fishing was good when the seas were calm. Plenty of tarpon, sharks and some jacks mixed in. Also, some mackerel have shown up too.
Beach fishing was very good last week and the inlet was pretty hot as well. Plenty of tarpon and sharks along the beaches around Sebastian with a lot of blacktip and black nose sharks.
Easter Bunny brought Noah some Mangrove Snapper!
Steve with a over slot snook this week!
Noah with a Jack which is one of his favorites cause they are feisty as he says!
Capt. Jesse Austin is not saving any for the rest of us this year, apparently!
Capt. Jesse Austin swears by Native Salt Clams “Salty Tongue” baits when it comes to catching red snapper.
Capt. Jesse Austin of Going Coastal Charters crushed the red snapper during the first weekend of the 2018 Red Snapper Season.
This huge snook was caught with Capt. Glyn Austin out of Sebastian Inlet.
