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.

So when I started kayak fishing I fished solely our inshore waters - to which I thoroughly loved, enjoyed and was enriched by.

The Thousand Islands formed as a result of an ancient tidal inlet that breached this barrier island and flowed across modern-day Cocoa Beach.
