The East Jetty is offering a fair day for a peek at the sheepshead and snapper, but conditions are a bit mixed. With the tide falling and still 3.8 hours until next slack, the East Pass current will be a significant factor, as it often is here. The estimated visibility today is 10-15 ft, which is the worst factor, likely influenced by the light 6.4 mph cross-onshore wind from the SSW, despite the minimal swell under 1 ft being the best factor.
