Mosquito Lagoon - Saltwater Fishing Report
April 2015 has been another great month of inshore saltwater fishing trips here on the Indian River and Mosquito Lagoon Florida. Clients catching everything from Redfish and Seatrout, Black Drum and Sheepshead, Mangrove Snapper, Sharks, Bluefish, Jack Crevalle, Ladyfish, and more. My backcountry mixed bag trips have been great, 10 or more species on most trips, keeping it interesting waiting to see what type of fish will surface next. Flats fishing trips targeting Redfish and Seatrout on the shallow grass beds at Mosquito Lagoon in the Canaveral National Park waters is fun sight fishing fun while hunting the flats for Reds. At the end of March Chris and daughter Regan went Redfishing with me on a chilly north windy morning, makes for tough sight fishing but each caught and released a large size Red, Regan with her a 31.5" Red she had a hard time holding up, so I got to model it with her....................
.............dad Chris caught and released a 33" with 19 spot Red...........
Also late March, still cool with early spring pattern, regular "snowbird" client Ed from Illinois did his annual trip with me catching lots of Bluefish, Jacks, and Sheepshead topped by this jumbo "convict fish"..........................
New clients from Indiana Tammy and Shon brought the family with me on a mixed bag trip and had a great time with a super catching morning, some of everything coming in, the kids had a time catching Reds, Sheepys, Blues, Jacks, and mom caught the biggest Speckled Trout................
Amanda, Wayne and their kids from Toronto had a very fun time on their spring break trip, and I had to share this great photo of Aisha so proud of her big Seatrout ..................
Longtime returning clients Craig and family from Orlando went again recently, here Matthew with an oversize Sheepshead..........................
.............. and family friend Brandon with one of the 3.5 foot long Shovelnose Sharks which were around for a couple weeks here in the backwaters, cruising the shorelines, we sight fished this one, a big battle on my light weight spinning rods........................
New local residents Henry and Maria who just moved here from South Florida asked me to take them on an instructional flats fishing trip on Mosquito Lagoon so they could be more successful on their own flats boat, taught them navigating the areas waterway, some fishing techniques, and even caught a couple quality Redfish, here Henry with an overslot 29" fish.....................
James was visiting from England and wanted to catch Florida fish on fly, which he did landing Trout, Jacks, and Ladyfish on his fly rod, then going for more different species on shrimp, catching a couple good Black Drum.......................
