Fishing in the Shadow of Rockets
There are places in Florida where you can catch a redfish; there are places where you can watch a rocket launch. But…There aren't many places where you can be sitting in a kayak, casting to a tailing redfish in a foot of water while one of the most technologically advanced machines ever built by human beings is sitting on a launch pad somewhere beyond the mangroves. That's fishing the northern reaches of Florida’s Space Coast.
Inlet Fishing: It’s HOT!
GOOD morning all you Sebastian Inlet fans and fanatics, hope you all enjoyed the great weekend we had! Good news, again! The fishing at the inlet has been pretty good, and over the weekend has gotten even better with all sorts of fish being caught.
Sliding Sinker Rigs
This week's report is basically a continuation of last week’s report. Lots of fingerling mullet are working down the beach and the jack, ladyfish, bluefish, snook and flounder have been feeding on them.
Lagoon & Stick Marsh
After a long break from fishing due to our complete renovation of our master bathroom I was able to wet a line this past week.
A Quiet 20 Miles
Good week of nearshore fishing. Finally seeing some mullet schools late this week (after showing Capt Crush it was quiet for 20 miles earlier in the week except for one school of finger mullet that didn't have any predators thrashing them) along the beaches and they should start pushing down from up north as soon as we get some north winds or tropical storms.
Mullet in Full Swing
The snook bite is still going strong along the beaches, and with more and more mullet showing up in both the rivers and along the beach, the bite should only continue to get better! We’re definitely starting to see more signs of the mullet run picking up, so now is a great time to get out there and fish.
Surf Fishing & Mullet Run Shenanigans
If I needed a fishing guide that's among the best there is at putting customers on the fish and showing them a great time, Capt. Glyn Austin's name would be at the top of the list. If I needed a straight answer on whether or not the mullet run has started, I would not even be dialing Glyn Austin's number.
Mullet & the Trickle Down Economy
This past week has been a good bite with lots of nice trout and lots of redfish. With the front we have pushing through this week, I expect the mullet run to really kick off in the river.
🎣 SPACE COAST / MERRITT ISLAND WILDLIFE REFUGE FISHING REPORT
Well… the summer grind is almost over, and I think the fish are ready for fall just as much as we are. 😂 But these Florida summer storms have been absolutely all over the place during this final stretch. One minute you’re fishing, the next minute Mother Nature decides you [...]
Rain Hasn’t Impacted Bite
It seems as though Mother Nature is playing catch up with the recent rain scattered across Central Florida this past week. We have been dodging storms over the Labor Day week and it looks as though the afternoon showers will continue through the this coming week as well.
This Week on the Lagoon
Another mix of early morning and evening trips this past week, and it definitely had its ups and downs.
Captain Austin’s Lonely Baits Run Band
I've been calling the mullet run for several weeks now. I've told Glyn, I've shown him -- I've been relentlessly working the beaches, day in and day out, putting in the time, but he just won't hear it. To be fair, it's hard to see if the bait are running when you're Donald Ducking around the Carribean on a Disney Cruise.
