I have been fishing mosquito lagoon pretty regularly the last few weeks. Both on my kayak and from shore wade fishing.

As a new fisherman, or wannabe fisherman, I am constantly struggling with the pull to return to spots that have been good to me in the past or to try new spots.

The fishing is red-hot right now, and it’s time to get in on the action! The early morning bite has been on fire lately, with the early evening hours also producing some incredible catches.

So today I am going to switch gears a bit from some of the usual spot reporting that I do, and actually offer up a sampler pack of sorts. Today I am going to talk about some of my favorite summer inshore fishing spots for kayak fishing here on the Space Coast.

This week was a mix of seaweed salad, dirty water, and by the end of the week, clean water with perfect conditions that allowed us to fill our coolers with nice catches of whiting, black drum, and pompano.

The fishing has picked up a bit over the weekend, the water has also cleaned up quite a bit from what it was, and warmed up to near what it should be along the coastal area around the inlet.

Three Forks, Garcia and the Stick Marsh are on fire right now for catching fish. The bass are schooling up on shad pods at the Stick Marsh and the big bluegill are spawning in and around the vast wood throughout the lake.

What a week for the Maui Wowis again. We pretty much got on them every day we could get out.

Decent week of fishing inshore for Snook, trout, a few redfish and some jacks with plenty of opportunity to sight fish as the water is very clean due to lack of rain.

From June 10 through June 20, the launch ramp for power boats at Headwaters Lake in Fellsmere will be closed for concrete repairs, a St. Johns River Water Management District release announced Tuesday.

The live bait bite was great this week. The fish are moving into deeper water so the deeper canals and pits are my focus areas. As water temps continue to climb the bite will slow down as the fish go deeper.

Get the latest word on the bite with Damon from Spacefish on the Mark Moses Show. We talk local fishing every Friday on the air at 4pm.

Bait, bait, and more bait. There are excellent numbers of small pilchard’s, pogies and glass minnows in our local waters right now, and these baitfish are the preferred dinner choice for just about every predatory fish that swims in our lagoons.

May and June mark the seasonal species changing of the guard along the Central East Coast of Florida. Meaning, summertime surf fishing translates to big fish with early morning and late afternoons providing the best conditions.
