The bait in both the Indian River Lagoon and the Banana River lagoons are abundant. The gamefish are mixed in with the bait when you find it.Brevard - Capt Glyn AustinJul 1st, 2013
Trout, ladyfish, and small crevalle jack should be following schools of glass minnows in the middle sections of this lagoon. Small spoons, jigs, and lipped diving plugs and other small minnow imitators should work very well for these aggressively feeding fish. captjimrossJul 1st, 2013
Summer time in central Florida is ripe with kayak angling opportunities. Early mornings are still calm and the air is heavy with humidity. Capt. AlexJul 1st, 2013
Full blown summer is here all and low water levels with warm water temperatures are in our future for the next few months. Getting on the water early will undoubtedly be a key factor for anglers serious about fishing the flats.captjimrossJul 1st, 2013
Canaveral National Seashore at Playalinda Beach to Cocoa Beach and on down to Sebastian Inlet were all experiencing the start of the summer surf fishing season. Dotting this transitional time frame was our first tropical storm Andrea which rolled thru the northern part of the state in early June.Brevard - John DetmerJul 1st, 2013
Dirty water, warm water, LOW water sums up the South Mosquito Lagoon right now. Please don’t read more into this first sentence than the few words printed within. I’m not preaching “doom & gloom” here because the fish are doing fine.
Every summer we endure these factors to one degree or another and we will make the most of things this summer as well.
Look for areas where the dirty water meets clean or at least cleaner water.Brevard EditionJul 1st, 2013
Rumor is red snapper is opening this month for a few weekends. You should not have any problem catching them! I had several this month in the teens trolling for kingfish on pogies. Pelican and 8A have plenty of reds on them. If you want to venture out a little deeper there’s always the 21 and 27 fathom. Basic bottom rig consists of an 8-10 oz egg sinker with 6-8 foot of 80lb mono and an 8/0 hook. Watch your machine and when you drop down reel it up a few cranks.Brevard - Chris CameronJul 1st, 2013
Summer brings several things that improve the fishing in the central lagoon area, some of which include stable weather, light winds and increased variety and numbers of baitfish. The light winds open new territory to small boat anglers (i.e. the ocean).Brevard EditionJun 4th, 2013
