redfish pat

The summer time weather pattern is in full effect here in Central Florida with really hot days and late afternoon thunderstorms. With this pattern sitting in it has fired up the bite again with stirring things up in the backwaters of New Smyrna Beach. The bait continues to be plentiful and the fish can be found in and around the schools of bait. We have been boating several different species like jacks, redfish, trout, snook and black drum. The secret has been find the bait find the fish and this is even more true throughout Mosquito Lagoon where the bait has also been in great numbers. This weather pattern looks to be here into next week and the fish do not seem to mind.
