The bite continues to be strong this past week and with the approaching cold front this week it will only get better. The bait continues to be located on the flats and backwaters of New Smyrna Beach which has made a great location for the trout and redfish to hang out.

The weather that we had recently received here in the Central Florida area was a lot of water. With the extreme amount of water brought flooding a lot with higher water conditions throughout the Mosquito Lagoon.

As we move into Fall the fish are starting to change their patterns a bit. Look for them holding in the sand holes and mud bottoms early then moving up on the shallow grass as the day starts to warm.

Looks as though we are getting started on our winter time weather pattern. We have received our first cool front bringing strong winds and cooler temperatures with it.

The bite throughout the New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon waters has been good this past week both before and after our cool front.

We have had a little change in the weather over the past few days with some cooler dryer air moving in. With this cooler dryer air has brought a North / Northeast wind that has continued to raise the water levels in the New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon area.

We have had some strange weather for the past week making it difficult to fish with wind, rain and high water but it has not stopped us from catching.

It seemed as the Fall weather gave us a little tease here in Central FL this past week with some lows in the 60’s. Unfortunately that was short lived and we are back into high 70’s at night and 90’s in the day.

It looks as though we are getting a little mild cooling front this week and I’m not complaining. Let’s not get crazy though when I say cooling its down to 91 degrees instead of 98, but I’ll take it.

The weather may have cooled off just a little but that bite still seems to be hot. We are continuing to boat several different species trout and redfish to snook and black drum.
