Coming Up on Spring!
As we approach March it seems as though the weather is starting to figure out that we are coming up on Spring.
This Week’s Fishing Report
Although I only managed to get out on the water twice this week, both trips were productive, yielding a good number of snook and trout, as well as a few jacks and smaller reds.
Understanding Barometric Pressure
During this time of year fishing Central Florida, we're going up against three factors that can make or break an outing: wind, temperature, and barometric pressure.
Fishing Holding Steady with Room for Improvement
Good morning, Sebastian Inlet fishing folks. I hope you all had a great weekend. The weather was nice and the fishing was decent. With that said, here we go with this week's installment.
Dirty but Producing
Hope everyone is doing well and had a chance to get out and fish this past week! The fishing has been steady, with plenty of black drum, whiting, a few pompano and palometas showing up.
Focused on Deeper Shorelines
After a couple weeks of warmer temps and good fishing inshore and nearshore the winds increased and the temperatures dropped last week making it tougher inshore and too rough to fish off the beach.
Good Variety on the Party Boat
The Ocean Obsession out of Sunrise Marina at Port Canaveral did a great job this past week putting their customers on the fish. Lane snapper, mangrove snapper, triggerfish and even a few really nice cobia all found their way over the rail and into the pail.
Drum Eating Artificials & Live Shrimp
The bite has been on fire this past week with large schools of redfish and black drum eating artificials and live shrimp. Snook have been eating a jumbo live shrimp free lined too.
Lake Fairview
Fished Fairview Saturday morning, started across the lake from Grills near the dock with the red roof and worked to the right. Cold front had pushed the fish out to the first drop and I got a great start to the day.
Indian River by 520
2 hours in a kayak under the 520 causeway. Windy and only managed some garbage fish and a couple small sheep using live shrimp.
Not so Fast, SPRING!
So just when we thought that Spring had arrived here in Central Florida ole Winter had to make another appearance. We had a small front dip down over the weekend bringing wind, rain and cooler temperatures across Daytona Beach, New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon.
This Week on the Indian River
Fishing in our area has been incredibly productive over the past week, with many species starting to move out of their winter hiding spots.
