Let’s Get Weird
For this trip report, I launched from the Eau Gallie Boat Ramp- once I launched, I went under the eastern causeway bridge (the short one), and then went north along the eastern shoreline until I got adjacent to Dragon Point, then I went over and fished around the point, then I went south again, and spent a few hours fishing the docks and shoreline, before calling it a day.
Kayak Fishing: Top Summer Inshore Spots
So today I am going to switch gears a bit from some of the usual spot reporting that I do, and actually offer up a sampler pack of sorts. Today I am going to talk about some of my favorite summer inshore fishing spots for kayak fishing here on the Space Coast.
Wade Fishing in the Banana River
This week I am switching gears a little bit…DISCLAIMER no kayak was used in this report. Today I am going to talk about my most recent outing with my kids.

Now this week, I am doing a slight shift in focus, and instead of focusign on a particular launch spot, focusing on choosing high percentage areas to go inshore fishing.
Kayak Fishing: Navigating Wacky Winter Weather in Central Florida
This week instead of talking about a "spot" to kayak fish, I am going to talk about how to navigate through, and catch fish during the wacky wintertime weather patterns that we have been getting. Let’s dive in!
Kayak Fishing: Banana River (Kelly Park – Merritt Island)
This past weekend I fished a part of the Banana River I have never fished before on the west side of Merritt Island, just south of the 528 Causeway. I have to say, for a new spot I was pleased with how it went. Let’s dive in!
Kayak Fishing: Horseshoes & Hand-Grenades in Melbourne
I was a little squeezed for time this weekend, my football team won again Friday - we’re currently 7-2, and having already defeated Holy Trinity we have our last regular season game this week, and with a win will lock up a district title and home field advantage for the round of 16 playoff game.
Kayak Fishing: Banana River and More
I have been enjoying my first week off of school, and have taken advantage of the opportunity to get out and fish and explore new places/places I haven't been in over a year. I fished a new spot on the Banana River outside of Cocoa Beach, fished an early morning on the Indian River Lagoon and did some Bass fishing with my cousin Mark who is down for our family reunion. So let's dive in!
Kayak Fishing Report: Changing Weather/Changing Tactics
So this past week saw a cold front push through, and then strong north winds in the days that followed. I was able to go out and fish Saturday morning, I was going to return to Long Point to do a spot report there, but I ended up changing plans and fishing the Banana River in the Thousand Islands off of Cocoa Beach due to time constraints, and the need to make a Lowe's run after fishing for a home project we were working on this past weekend.
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.
