The site fishing has been very good for redfish this past week with a few trout and some snook mixed in. We still have some really nice tarpon in the channels

With the way the winds have been howling this last week you’d think Halloween had already come. This week will bring some calmer conditions to the Space Coast so we can get back out on the water to continue catching fish. The mullet run had kicked back into high gear early last week and the near-coastal fishing was incredible.

We have definitely had some strange weather this first part of October. Central Florida gets hammered by Hurricane Milton causing a major inconvenience with flooding, trees down and power outages across the state. Then immediately after Milton the first cold front of the season dipped into Central Florida as well.

Fall is in the air and my favorite time to fish has finally arrived! The next few months have countless opportunities for some really amazing fishing.

After a relatively slow few weeks, with only a couple of brief fishing trips, I managed to squeeze in a productive evening on the water. Strong currents and tannic waters made for challenging conditions, but using current to my advantage paid off.

We hope everyone is doing well after hurricane Milton’s passing last week. Here at Fineline Fishing Charters we were without power for 4 days but our trusty generator and gas grill helped us make the best of a bad situation.

The water in the Mosquito Lagoon is not as high as expected nor as dirty. Their schools of large jacks and redfish are starting to school up. Keep an eye out for tailing redfish that can be caught with a well placed shrimp or a slow paddle tail.
