The New Smyrna Beach waters have been very active this past week with some great fishing. The weather has been good and making for some great catching of several species like snook, redfish, trout and black drum.

We have started to get a little rain here in the New Smyrna Beach area which has definitely helped our drought conditions.

The waters in the northern lagoon system have been filled with life this past week. From the Halifax River south through Mosquito Lagoon, the life has been very vibrant with shrimp, finger mullet and all the predators chasing them.

New Smyrna Beach had received a little taste of some Summer weather this past week and I will say it got toasty.

Spring time in the backwaters of New Smyrna Beach is the place to be! The fish have been happy with several different species coming boat side this past week along with a few slams as well.

The spring time bite seems to be really firing up here in the New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon waters . The shrimp have been making a pretty good run this past week which has been firing up the trout and snook along the shorelines.

It seems as though the start to April is starting out a little bumpy with some adverse weather conditions throughout the Daytona Beach and New Smyrna Beach coast . We had a few nice days to start with clear skies and a little breeze making for some great sight fishing and catching in the Mosquito Lagoon waters . The redfish and trout have been working the shallow grass flats of Mosquito Lagoon focusing on shrimp , pinfish and mullet . The snook and jacks have been holding in the deeper waters in and around New Smyrna Beach and Daytona Beach . Focusing on structure and bait the jacks and snook have been raging havoc on shrimp and bait pods. Unfortunately we have had a low pressure move in on top of the whole state bringing rain and wind forage few days but should be moving on its way by mid week making for some great weather and fishing later in the week into the weekend .

New Smyrna Beach has had some great chamber of commerce days this past week with clear skies and plenty of sun. The fish have definitely liked the weather as well with several different species coming boat side this past week.

Spring time pattern is ramping up. The bite has been solid this past week and as we enter Spring it will only continue. The redfish have been happy and tailing across the shallow grass flats of Mosquito Lagoons with the trout and black drum in the mix as well.

The weather in Central Florida has been a little up and down this past week, with highs near 90 then dipping back down in the high 50s. I thought we were finished with Winter but obviously Mother Nature had other plans.
