Kayak Fishing Report: Pine Island Conservation Area – Sam’s Creek
I hope that everyone was able to weather the storm, and that no one’s home or property was damaged. The way it has felt outside since the storm passed, with crisp cool mornings, and highs in the lower 80's it feels like fall is creeping its way here on the Space Coast.
Kayak Fishing Report: The Calm Weekend Before The Storm
Saturday evening I was on the Eau Gallie River, the Elbow Creek stretch, and there were hundreds of White Ibises perched in the mangroves. I thought that was cool, it was beautiful and kind of ominous at the same time. The Ibis is synomous with hurricanes, that's why Miami's mascot is Sebastian the Ibis.
Kayak Fishing Report: Honest John’s Fish Camp – Old Florida Experience
Saturday morning I got up early and spent the day fishing one of my absolute favorite places to launch out of and fish. Honest John’s Fish Camp located on Mullet Creek on the Indian River Lagoon, a few miles north of Sebastian Inlet, and just southwest of Indian River Preserve State Park

Kayak Fishing Report: Labor Day Weekend – Crane Creek and Goat Creek
I hope everyone had a fantastic Labor Day Holiday weekend! I was able to get out and fish twice, and we enjoyed a great family meal - I prepared all of it except the Mac and Cheese my wife has a guarded homemade recipe she got from her mama, but I smoked ribs, cooked my special jambalaya, baked beans, grilled corn and garlic toast on the grill (which is a fantastic choice to sop up a plate of bbq and all the sides we had).
Kayak Fishing Report: Hot Tarpon/Snook Bite on Eau Gallie River
We have probably gotten more rain in the last 2 weeks in the Eau Gallie district of Melbourne than we have in the last 2 months. It seems that way, anyway. My yard isn’t the only thing that has been fired up about it, the Snook and Tarpon populations on the Eau Gallie River were fired up and absolutely chewing this weekend.
Kayak Fishing Report: St. Sebastian River Back Country Slam
I hope everyone had a great weekend! At the end of every class period on Friday I talk to my students about the upcoming weekend, I tell them fun thing my family and I plan on doing, I hear from them etc. My 7th period U.S. History class has a few young men that like to talk fishing, and they know I love Snook and Tarpon, and Largemouth Bass.
Kayak Fishing Report: Sykes Creek (Merritt Island) and Turkey Creek Rain Out
I think one of my favorite parts about fishing is that some days it all falls into place and works out well, and some days it’s an absolute grind, and other days are somewhere in between. I really can’t complain because I’ve had more “fall into place” days recently, but I attempted to get a good Turkey Creek report going this weekend and let’s just say it didn’t go as well as I hoped. So we’re going to put a pin in that for now.
Kayak Fishing Report: Eau Gallie River Part I – Elbow Creek
We started back to school (pre-planning)l this week as teachers so getting back into the routine I was more limited in my fishing, since I was limited I decided to stick close to home and fish the Eau Gallie River, since I live 3 miles from Ballard Park. I consider the Eau Gallie River to be my "home waters" since it's the closest bigger body of water to my house, which we moved into in January.
A Fresh (Water) Approach to Inshore and Back Country Kayak Fishing
If you are reading this and you like mixing it up here on the Space Coast between freshwater fishing and inshore stuff, this is for you! I put in a combined 20 hours of kayak fishing using only "freshwater" designed baits.

A Kayak Angler’s Guide: Stick Marsh/Farm 13
When I moved to Brevard County in February of 2020, it didn’t take long for me to become a full blown kayak fishing addict, I’m from Georgia, the land of farm ponds - freshwater fishing is all I had really known outside of fishing the low country for a couple of months when I lived in McIntosh County, GA in 2015. So when I started kayak fishing I fished solely our inshore waters - to which I thoroughly loved, enjoyed and was enriched by.
Thousand Island Conservation Area, Cocoa Beach – Paddle Anglers Guide
The Thousand Islands formed as a result of an ancient tidal inlet that breached this barrier island and flowed across modern-day Cocoa Beach. The indigenous Ais people, a fisher-gatherer society, lived along the inlet. Their oyster shell middens gave rise to the tropical hammocks still evident on the islands today.
Headwaters Lake – Paddle Anglers Guide
How blessed are we to have one of the world's premier bass fisheries in our own backyard?!? No boat? I say no problem! This is an absolutely fantastic area to fish from a kayak or canoe!
