The McLarty Treasure Museum features the history of the 1715 Spanish treasure fleet; the Sebastian Fishing Museum tells the history of the area's fishing industry. Three miles of beautiful beaches provide opportunities for swimming, scuba diving, snorkeling, shelling, and sunbathing. Canoeing and kayaking in the Indian River Lagoon are also favorite pastimes. Visitors can relax with a stroll down the mile-long Hammock Trail. Waterfront pavilions and picnic areas are great for family outings. Full-facility campsites and a boat ramp are available. Located on State Road A1A 15 miles south of Melbourne Beach.

September 1st marks the begining of the Fall Snook Fishing Season.
Snook Fishing at Sebastian Inlet can be successful in a variety of ways. Sebastian Inlet can get crowded during Snook Season so plan on patience and persistence to be successful. Nighttime fishing from 7 pm till Midnight is the most popular time but if you want to avoid crowds, Try fishing during the day on Tide Changes, an hour or so of throwing a Bomber may yield a couple of nice Snook.
Tips/Tactics:
Fishing with Live Bait such as, Pinfish, Croakers, Mullet and Large Live Shrimp can be the most productive. When Live Bait isn't available, try 1 1/2 oz. Jigs in Red & White and Chartreuse. Swimming Plugs like the Bomber and Rebel work well especially during Tide Changes.

Sebastian Inlet Fishing Report 05.15.13
Summer brings several things that improve the fishing in the central lagoon area, some of which include stable weather, light winds and increased variety and numbers of baitfish. The light winds open new territory to small boat anglers (i.e. the ocean). This allows anglers a chance to pursue species that are out of their reach the rest of the year, as well as having better conditions to fish the inshore waters. Being able to get outside the inlet is going to be more important this summer th...

Sebastian Inlet – Sebastian Inlet has been a great spot to find a double digit Jack Crevalle in March.
These bruisers are a big hit with vacationing anglers because of their unrelenting fight and aggressive
attitude toward a live bait or artificial lure. If the bluefish allow your baits to get down to the jacks hang
on for a memorable battle. Inlet anglers usually get a last shot at pompano and flounder in March along
with blues and mackerel. The big redfish are always a possi...

The big Reds are in the inlet and eating crabs like they should ! I had 1 day with 4 Reds over 25# on fly and just today popped a couple more on the Zara Spook. Near shore has been a mixture of Bonita,Kings,Sharks and Spanish with some Cobia,Tarpon and Permit around. In the lagoon I have been catching a few nice Trout and the docks and Mangroves are producing catch and release Snook. Its good to see the Reds back strong after 2 so so years on the Crab bite.

We fished on Tuesday morning with local buddies, Rick Pino and Jack Balme. The weather was perfect, and we caught trout up to 18″ in the Indian River. We then moved to the Sebastian Inlet, where we had nonstop action on both the incoming and outgoing tides-–with jacks up to 10 pounds, bluefish 5-6 pounds, and large ladyfish up to 32″. The highlight of the trip occurred when a dolphin hit one of the ladyfish while it was still at the end of our fishing line; that was a firs...

Variety is what makes April a great month to fish in the Sebastian Area. With this year’s warm winter, that will definitely be the case again. The inshore and near-shore waters of the Sebastian Area become a maelstrom of fish activity as water temperatures and day lengths increase. From the headwaters of the Sebastian River to the Gulf Stream, anglers will find fish species eager to entertain them. The month of April has accounted for the majority of East Coast Slams (trout, redfish,...

RICK & JACK
We fished today with our local fishing buddy, Rick Pino, who’s an enthusiastic and expert angler. We were using pinfish and jigs, and Pino caught a huge flounder (the kind we call “fluke” up north,) and both of us caught several jack crevelles up to 30lbs. Our cooler was also filled with bluefish in the 2-4 lb. range and pompano up to 18″.
It was our most productive trip this month an...

Last Friday we fished with local buddy, Rick Pino, his father-in-law, Ed Jones—visiting from Virginia—and another great fisherman--snowbird, Ron Greisdale—whose home base is Great Britain. We didn't get anything spectacular, but we all kept busy with ladyfish, a few jacks and some sea trout. It was distressing to see that so much of the grassy areas are thinning out; they usually hold nice schools of trout and an occasional redfish.
On President's Day we fished...

Not too many trips for the past couple of weeks, but last Friday we did some scouting with our local buddies, Jack Balme and Rick Pino of Sebastian—both of whom are great fishermen. We had a few days of "cold" weather, and when we left the dock Friday morning the water temp was about 56 degrees, and we were interested in seeing if the fishing patterns had changed.
We started out along the Intracoastal islands, with no action except for a few small jacks and ladyfish. We...

Well, we finally got on the Indian River last Friday–along with our local fishing buddies, Rick Pino and Jack Balme. The winds were low, so we were able to get to most of our favorite places without any problems.
At our first stop we found some sea trout, and then as we moved further east we came upon an area loaded with ladyfish. When we'd had our fill of the feisty ladies we moved southward and worked bottom structures, boating more than 30 trout, all of which were released....

Also some Pompano and Blues and Flounder have dotted the catches. As always all these fish were caught on DOA products Minno...

Our Florida boat is now in the water and ready for 2011-2012 winter season action. We'll be doing some scouting this week, but we've heard reliable reports of large trout being caught, as well as snook and bluefish in the Indian River.
The Sebastian River has also been very productive for the past several weeks—with redfish, ladyfish and trout—as well as the ever-elusive 15-30lb tarpon teasing everyone as they playfully roll among the mangrove-lined canals.

I am very happy to report that it looks like the Central Indian River Lagoon Area is having a Normal fall season for the first time in about five years. As of mid-October we have already seen some morning temperatures in the mid-sixties and water temps throughout the lagoon are in the upper 70s.

October is the top all-around month to fish the central Indian River Lagoon Area. Water temperatures are dropping back into the optimum range for most of the resident and migratory species and air temps begin to cool into the preferred range for anglers as well. Baitfish numbers are at a peak and the predators are sure to be close by. High water levels are also a positive aspect of the early fall season. The high water allows anglers and fish to reach backwater areas that in some cases are ina...
Sebastian Inlet Fishing Report 08.23.11
I dont know how to react to this past summer season. The thing that stands out for me in hindsight is the lack of a consistent near-shore bite, especially in the case of king mackerel. The lack of favorable small boat friendly sea conditions can take some of the blame, but commercial and recreational anglers Ive talked to from the Keys to North Carolina have made the same observation. Lets hope it is a cycle and it will correct itself by next summer. On the other hand, the inshore fishin...

I am looking forward to May and June because I can target larger species of fish in every venue available in the Sebastian area. I can break free of the inland waters regularly to seek out the big boys migrating up the coast, target big snook around shoreline structure and confidently pursue tarpon throughout the Sebastian River system. All fishing methods, from live bait to fly rod are also at home in each of these situations, thus making it possible for anglers of all experience levels to sc...

The warming waters of spring will bring the lagoon to life. Baitfish numbers and varieties will increase and the predators wont be far behind. The list of available game fish species will also expand with the warmth. Tarpon will top the list of new arrivals, while I am sure that the resurgence of the grass beds at this time of year will also attract more trout and redfish. Now let me give you an idea of what to expect in the early spring in the Sebastian area.

It has been a long hot summer for the central Indian River Lagoon area this year. Due to an abundance of calm, clear days and very little rain this summer, water temperatures reached the low 90s in the lagoon on a daily basis. This really kept the inshore fishing to a minimum in the Sebastian area, but further south around Ft. Pierce with their large inlet and good tidal exchange, the inshore bite carried on through the dog days. As I have always said about the Sebastian area, when one type...

Sebastian Inlet In years gone by August was my favorite month to fish The Inlet. The Snook will be stacked on top of one another and the big reds will be wherever they can find room. Live bait including croakers, pigfish, greenies, pinfish, shrimp, in that order, will be the key to daytime inlet action. Fish outgoing tides east of A1A, incoming tides west of A1A is a general rule for daytime snook fishing. Night fishing can also be great, whether you drift through the bridge with live b...

The mid-summer season in the Sebastian area is one of stable weather and predictable fishing. This year is right in line with what I would normally expect in the early summer season. The wind stopped blowing about the first of June and plenty of bait pods have been just off the beaches to lure in predators like tarpon, kingfish, cobia, big jack crevalle. Inshore anglers have struggled, possibly due to some record heat; I personally read water temps over 93 degrees in open water areas of the la...
