[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Sebastian Inlet State Park Jetty Fishing 101! I wanted to show you guys how to fish the inlet to maximize your chances to catch a good fish like snook, redfish, flounder, black drum, sheepshead and pompano on this video. Lots of tips, methods, the best baits both live and artificial, rig style and the most importantly where and when to fish the jetty!

[@adamnun-ya819]

I appreciate the tips. We are going tomorrow and you gave great advice. We live 1 hour away and I finally have free time to go and I'm going to use the tips you mentioned.

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Glad to help! Good luck and report back 👍

[@360tanman]

My friend and I were on the north jetty today from noon to 3pm. Sadly we didn't get anything. We used fresh shrimp. That's just the way it goes. Enjoy your videos KO!!!!

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Yes my brother. It's either on or off! That's Sebastián inlet for you 😁thanks for watching 👍

[@albuterol71]

Great video! Love the Inlet! I usually fish south side further down by the rocks.That north jetty is too crowded and people always crossing lines and tangles. Been catching a lot of mangroves and muttons on greenies lately. Great fishing this time of year!

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Thanks! Yes! I also go to South side lately. Much better. Check out my latest videos there. Just got a nice keeper snook on pinfish. Fish ON! 🤙

[@buffoonoutdoors]

I fish there with lures mostly but the majority of fish I see are caught using live shrimp. I prefer a challenge but shrimp is almost a guarantee. Great video.

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Yes. Large shrimp always works! 😎 Thanks for watching!

[@marcus604rsd]

Great video, I am planning on coming down to Sebastian and good to know what to actually expect. Keep up the good work.

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

[@badboydneon]

Love this video man! I'm from PA and visit FL few times a year and recently started going to Sebastian Inlet. I have a lot to learn and time to put in. Only caught a snook one time, out of trial and error using a bucktail. Keep doing you with the videos and forget the haters. This was very informative for me!

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Glad to hear that! That's the purpose of this video exactly! Thanks for watching 👍

[@badboydneon]

@FishingFloridaWithKO can't wait to be back soon. I definitely learned a lot of ugly, got snagged many times. I'm not giving up though. Looks like I'll be giving that jig head with artfiicial shrimp a try. I like the challenge of learning artificial. Subscribed 😉

Thanks for the video my friend. I lived in Sebastian for six years back in the early 90s and Fish there all the time. I’m headed back up in May to do some snook Fishing. Thanks for all the tips and the refresher. What month of the year was that you filmed it. I know the snook will heat up in the summer. Thanks again, Ernie

Right now is the perfect time to catch snook and redfish at Sebastian Inlet! May will be great as well. Good luck! 😎 I have the original date posted on the video description.

He doesn't even show how to get it truly done, so you'll have clueless entitled visitors crossing lines with everyone and making people who worked for their fish lose their fish

[@Therealcalmrican]

Crazy how people get mad at others sharing the same public space. If you don’t like it then don’t live life. Life is all about sharing every inch of land and water with humanity.

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

@@Julianuribe23 I don't know how? Here you go again my brother. Here is an another message from one of my subscribers! You really need to watch all my videos before judging me. That's ignorance! Don't be that person! Be better please. Be good! Here is the message I got!... "As someone who lives in Indialantic, you can only imagine how valuable I find your videos. Virtually everything I know about fishing the River or the surf, I learned from you and a couple of other KZbinrs. I usually follow your lead and it works out well. I really appreciate you taking the time and giving us an insight to what you use and where you fish. Your enthusiasm is infectious, I can be having the worst day ever, but as soon as I watch one of your videos and use that laughing everything is okay. So from a fellow Brevard resident, thanks for everything you do it is really appreciated and has benefited me quite a bit. Hope to see you out there my friend! " There you go my brother! Don't hate.. Choose love and positive vibes instead! Don't be bitter! Trust me, it's so nice to be nice! 👍

😂 I didn't fish that day at all.. 😁 Just wanted to make the video and observe 👍😎

[@dsmith202]

I saw you recording your closing comments on the north side that day! Even saw myself in the background of your video😁. #Snagcity is right on the south side rocks! I was on the struggle bus that day and got skunked on both sides and the bridge - using mostly live shrimp and artificial DOA shrimp! I did have 3 big fish break off but it was a grind for me!

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Yeah my brother.. That's Sebastian Inlet for you.. 😁 You should have said hello 😎 thanks for watching 👍

[@TheGav0071]

Can you use top water lures in the inlet? I really want a bonito. When is the best time & location for these?

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Only early in the morning before sunrise if it's calm.. Spoons, plugs, twitch lures work better. Especially thumper shrimp!

[@rafe2787]

Thanks for this. Haven’t caught a thing yet but I will!

[@alonzonunez5037]

How’s the north side jetty as far as snags sandy or really rocky. I Wanna throw some flair hawks off the bottom . Or would u just suggest stay in the middle of the water column?

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

It's all rocks! You don't want to throw anything to the bottom! Wait for the incoming tide/high tide and than work your lures. The best way is to use huge live shrimp with split shot or egg sinker depending on the current 👍good luck

[@richardneff488]

What about spoons for mackerel. Love fish dip with smoked mackerel.

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Of course! 😎 Spoons will work any day at the pier and jetty even inshore Kayak Fishing for some redfish and trout

[@richardcampbell6493]

I will be done there in late June with my son what type of rod and reel and bait should we bring?

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Medium rod, 4000, 5000 reel, 20 to 30lb braid line and 20 to 30lb mono or floral. #3 or #4 circle hook with split shot or egg sinker depending on the current and BIG live shrimp 🤙 good luck. Thanks for watching 👍

What length rod and action do most guys use out there?

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

3000 to 5000 reel, medium to medium heavy rods. I use medium light and medium only! No need for heavy. 4000 reel is plenty! 😎

[@CrazyAlbertoKnee]

Florida anglers love using bait .. NE Angler are all about plugs and lures

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

I personally use all lures and artificial when I'm kayak fishing! I never use bait. I only use live bait when I'm at the Sebastian Inlet! But, I also use lures like thumper shrimp, gotcha lure, and spoons.. Check out my kayak videos 🤙

I was reaching out to you on behalf of my dad, his name is Ed and is a Marine VietNam veteran who has taken a HUGE following to your surf fishing videos at Playalinda beach :) he spent his career at Kennedy Spave Center, we all grew up in Titusville and that’s been our local beach all our lives.

[@EclipsePhotographyFL]

@@FishingFloridaWithKO grow up. Sebastian is NOT a secret. And as a "veteran local" angler you should already have a leg up on the average tourist as you are there all the time. You aren't entitled to any special treatment because you are local. If anything you are spoiled.

[@thetruthgodcountry5052]

Don't worry about the haters man, some people troll because they have nothing better to do. Anybody who fishes in the United States has heard of Sebastian Inlet! Keyboard Warriors trying to be typewriter tough guys! LMAO. The biggest problem with the inlet is though that there are far too many people. It gets real crowded and people are right on top of you, no one gives you your space, so what I do is I go a little bit north or a little bit south of the inlet.. South usually works better for me, but I have access to all the same fish without all the congestion

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Yes my brother. Some of these guys thinks they own the inlet! Such a shame the way they act like.. It's a public inlet and a state park and everyone knows about the place. They act like I expose it or give away a secret spot or something! Ridiculous! All I'm trying to do is help some people who don't really know how to fish the area. That's it. It's not like I'm an expert either by any means 😁 I'm just sharing my experience with fellow anglers. Thanks for watching 👍

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

Now you throwing threats? Wow! Stop hating! You don't even know me! I don't care about making money. I just love what I do and share it with everyone! You can ask the local fishing guide Matt, Momma B. He is a good friend of mine and we fish together there. Don't judge people without knowing them! That's ignorance! Don't be that guy! Don't be ignorant! Don't hate! Choose peace and love! That's what God wants us to do right? That's why I fish.. For the peace and love of the sport! Do the same. Be better! Be kind!

I have a shakespeare 3500 with 15 lb. test. It's spiderwire. If I use a 30 lb. liter will that work or do I need something bigger? Thanks and great video

[@FishingFloridaWithKO]

It all depends what you are after. If you want to catch a keeper snook, all you need is a 20lb braid to 20lb fc leader. Some people use 30lb fc as well but snook are smart. They see the line on a clear water day. So, if the water clear, use 20. Check out my last video at the Sebastian Inlet..
