EXPLANATION
What is driving today’s result?
NWS alert details: Gale Warning (Oct 25, 9:46 AM – Oct 27, 2:00 AM EDT); Gale Warning (Oct 25, 9:46 AM – Oct 28, 2:00 AM EDT).
Northeast winds 20 to 25 knots with gusts up to 35 knots and seas 8 to 13 feet.
The timing of the Gale Warning cannot be matched confidently to the fishing window, so the official alert should be reviewed first.
A safety constraint is the main reason this period is not recommended.
LOCAL FISHING CONTEXT
Fishing locations near Sebastian Inlet
Sebastian Inlet State Park north and south jetties
Florida State Parks identifies the inlet's two fishing jetties as shore-fishing destinations. NOAA 8722004 is the Sebastian Inlet bridge high/low tide station; its predicted water heights are not a measurement of current speed between the jetties or in the Atlantic surf.
The inlet can have strong flowing water, surf and slippery rocks. Check official park advisories and NWS marine and safety alerts before visiting. The curve displayed between NOAA high/low events is a derived visualization, not a separate NOAA interval forecast.
Planning data: NOAA tide predictions and NWS forecast and alert information. The numerical Fishing Score is a CoastalNow rule-based indicator, not a fish-bite forecast and not a safety guarantee.
Local access reference: Florida State Parks – Beach at Sebastian Inlet (external official information; not used as the numerical scoring data source).
