Snook: My Gateway Drug to Kayak Fishing Addiction
Flashback. It is January of 2017, I was in the process of leaving my position as Assistant Football Coach at LaGrange College in Georgia where I was a very poorly paid, small college position coach
Buck Lake Kayak Fishing
Today I am going to talk about a new spot I went and fished, Buck Lake in Harmony. This year I have made it a goal to get out and fish as many places as I can within driving distance of my home that are NOT world famous Bass fisheries that have been covered to death. I was doing some research on the Alligator chain of lakes in the St. Cloud area and stumbled across another lake, called Buck Lake.
Panama Kayak Adventure
It was easily the most dangerous fishing I had ever done. Large Pacific swells crashed against the rocks. Farther offshore those swells were no big deal – just a gentle rise and fall. Inshore, waves rebounding off the cliffs combined with incoming swells created unpredictable, turbulent seas. The trick was to get my kayak close enough to cast a popper among the rocks while staying far enough away that a rogue wave wouldn’t wash me into the impact zone.
Free Resources For Game-Planning Kayak Fishing Trips
So I want to switch gears a bit this week. Instead of detailing a particular place, I want to talk about game planning. One of the challenges of kayak fishing is covering ground, you can’t just zoom across a lake or the lagoon, or several miles up or down a river with the power of an outboard motor. Picking where to fish in my opinion is more important than choosing what or how to fish.
Kayak Fishing Report: St. John’s River & Lake Poinsett
So this past weekend I did some Bass fishing on the olde Rio San Juan, and the northern part of “Lake” Poinsett. I put the word lake in air quotes because it is not an actual lake in so much as it is a wide section of the St. John’s River.
Kayak Fishing Report: Winter Park Chain of Lakes
My wife and I had the day off from school on Friday, our kids stayed with their grandparents so we decided to get up early and go fish and paddle somewhere that has been on our list to go check out for some time, the Winter Park Chain of Lakes. From our house it was roughly an hour drive, but for those living on the north end of Brevard County/Space Coast it is probably closer to 45ish minutes.
Kayak Fishing Report: Grab and Go Quick Trips

Kayak Fishing Report: South Florida Special – Lake Ida
This past week was spring break, I was really excited to do a lot of fishing, and well….the weather kind of sucked. BUT, I took advantage of the cooler weather and decided to go south, and do something I’ve been wanting to do for some time, go after Peacock Bass.
Kayak Fishing Report – Sweet and Salty
This past weekend I had a chance to fish both days. I spent Saturday afternoon in the sweetwater, going back to Fox Lake for the second time in a month, and on Sunday I got my saltwater fix and went to a “new” spot. I had actually launched out of this place once before, in the summer of 2021, but I have never mentioned or written about this as a potential launch spot in a SpaceFish report.
Kayak Fishing Report: Over the Dam – Eau Gallie River
I fished Saturday on the Eau Gallie River, and to say the least it was a pretty wild day. I had an absolute ball, covered miles of the river, went over the dam and fished the freshwater side, and ended up catching 22 total fish from 7 different species.
Kayak Fishing Report: Fox Lake (Titusville)
I hope everyone had an awesome week. I got out on Saturday and fished a place I have never been before, Fox Lake in Titusville. I live in Melbourne between exits 182 and 183 on I-95, so I’m situated about halfway between this lake and Stick Marsh/Headwaters, one of my New Year’s Resolutions this year was to do more fishing in the northern parts of Brevard County/Space Coast, and also to find more great places to kayak Bass fish beyond the Stick Marsh/Headwaters.
Fishing with My Boys – Special Report
After a weekend which featured an extremely windy Saturday and a damp and dreary rainy day on Sunday, I decided to switch gears from the usual kayak fishing report and cover something else, that many of you out there reading have done before, or will do in the future - which is taking small children fishing.
Kayak Fishing Report: Three Forks Marsh Conservation Area
So today I am going to talk about Three Forks Marsh Conservation Area. I have now fished this area 3 times, once in the early summer, once in the early fall, and this past weekend. Not to put a damper on the report before you dive in, but this is one of the areas I have covered that I will come out and say from the onset, it’s not as friendly toward the kayak (paddle powered) angler as it is if you had a boat.
