Inlet and jetty fishing in Florida

An inlet is where the tide runs hardest, and the bait with it: snook, redfish, sheepshead, flounder and mackerel all work the passes and the jetties beside them. Jetty rocks get slick and waves break over them in a swell, so check the conditions on each spot's page before you go.
