Good Trout Action around Sebastian

By Ron Bielefeld
The weather remains very warm for the end of February in east central Florida. Water temps were in the low 80s today, yes you read it correctly, I said low 80s. As a result, we have been hitting the water just as it starts to get light and having some great action on top-water for trout and a few snook. Usually I go through top-water withdrawal during the winter months, but not so far this winter. Later in the mornings we have been switching to the old stand-bys, the Yo-Zuri 3D Fingerling and the Rip-Tide Weedless shrimp to keep the action going. We have been fishing shallow areas around islands and on the edges of flats early and then switching to drop-offs around islands later in the day. Most of our action has been from trout, but we have been catching a few snook and reds as well. The weather is about to get much colder, but the cold spell is not supposed to last but a couple of days. So, we may be in for some more good action on the top in the near future. Personally, I will take whatever comes our way as long as the wind stays down enough to fish. Until next time, Tight-Lines to all. Sincerely, Capt.
