KAYAK FISHING
LATEST REPORTS
Fathers, Sons & Farm Ponds
Last week I wrote about taking a trip to George L. Smith State Park in Georgia - an awesome destination for kayakers and all that enjoy paddling in a beautiful natural setting. Today I am going to write about the fishing we did the rest of the weekend.
Travel Report: George L. Smith State Park (Georgia)
On Friday morning, my brother and I loaded up our kayaks and went to George L. Smith State Park, which is located about 35 miles north of where he lives. This is a place I have wanted to kayak fish for a while, because it is an absolutely, stunningly beautiful place for a paddle - it is frequently listed as one of the state of Georgia’s top destinations for paddling, as it features a winding cypress swamp.

Kayak Fishing – Wabasso Causeway/Marsh Island
So today I am going to talk about my last two trips; they were both quicker, shorter outings, so I am going to combine them into one report.

Mosquito Lagoon Kayak Fishing
This week I scratched an item off my Florida bucket list; and to be honest it’s one that should have been done much sooner, but better late than never. I caught my first ever Mosquito Lagoon Redfish.
Hot Bite at Fox Lake
This past weekend the temperatures were hot, and so was the Largemouth Bass bite at Fox Lake! This is a fishery that I have always enjoyed coming to, and one that I think gets overlooked here on Florida’s Spacecoast...
