Breaking down Space Coast fishing for the weekend ahead with Mark Moses!

Offshore:
Good action continued with kingfish and some dolphin around 8A and Pelican reefs. Also, it’s tuna time! There have been some good yellowfin tuna caught on the other side this week as well. Weekend looks good!

Nearshore:
There are schools of glass minnows showing up with bonita, Spanish mackerel and tarpon on them. Good snook action at Port Canaveral. Live bait like croakers and pilchards have been the best baits.

Surf:
The surf has been super tough this week. East winds have pushed a lot of seaweed onto the beaches.

Lagoons:
The redfish bite has been good. Look for deeper channels and flats that are typically deeper. These areas are where your fish are going to be. They like the shallows to feed but also need deeper water or some type of structure for protection so the bridges and larger broken docks with any kind of depth will be holding fish.

Freshwater:
April through October is peak spawning season for bluegill with May being the best. Fly fishermen love this fishery so it’s a great time to break out those light spinning rods and fly rods.
