Fishing Sebastian Inlet
Sebastian Inlet cuts the barrier island between the Indian River Lagoon and the Atlantic, and its north jetty is legendary — the snook fishing off those rocks is as good as land-based fishing gets in Florida. Redfish, jacks, Spanish mackerel, and tarpon all run the inlet, and the lagoon side holds trout and reds over grass. The state park on both sides keeps access open and the water fishable.
Target species
- Snook
- Redfish
- Spanish mackerel
- Tarpon
Local tip: Snook stack on the down-current side of the jetty — the outgoing tide at night is the famous window.
