Water Quality Improving at the Inlet
This report is going to be kind of short again as there has not been anything going on at the inlet to "write home" about, mostly due to the changing water conditions we experienced from last Wednesday through the weekend.
Bottom Fishing Remains Stellar
The Ocean Obsession (OO) out of Sunrise Marina at Port Canaveral has continued to keep their clients on some quality fish! This time of year it is very common for us to get a summertime thermocline which is a cold water upwelling that really slows the bottom bite.
Tough Bite on Artificial
This week was great on live bait. We caught 50-70 fish most days in six hours or less. The artificial bite was tough, but a few baits managed to put some quality fish in the boat -- the Mike Bucca BullGill, Bass Assassin RSB worms in Gooseberry, Zoom Mag Monster worm Red Shad, Zman Poppin Shadz, and the Nichols Mag Fluter spoon.
Weekend Fishing Report
Get the latest word on the bite with Damon from Spacefish on the Mark Moses Show. We talk fishing every Friday on the air at 4pm.
Increased Water Levels in Mosquito Lagoon
The summer time weather has been getting a little active this past week with a lot of thunderstorms through the New Smyrna Beach area. It looks as though we are starting to get into an afternoon storm kind of pattern making for a good evening cool down.
Topwater Insurgency
So right now is the time to fish topwater - there is no more exciting way to catch fish than to go up top! So let’s start slinging them plugs!
Inlet Remains Clear of Sargassum
Here we go with the report for the inlet. Starting off, the good news is that all the sargassum weed is STILL gone! No weeds to contend with!
Summer Patterns Are Here
Spring has sprung and we are finally into our summer weather patterns. Hot summer days and afternoon thunderstorms and our summer patterns are taking shape. The bait has started to show up and the big Jacks, kingfish, bonito, sharks tarpon and permit are beginning to make their presence known as well along the beaches.
Good Fishing on Garcia
Garcia is still fishing good for me. Finding clean water is the key to the bite. Monday, I changed it up and threw my fly rod before the wind started to blow.
Good Fishing to Continue Post-front
Fishing has been great this past week with great tarpon action. They've been feeding on pigfish, croakers and live mullet.
The Secret of Ocha Alpha
The KINGS have shown up and are in full swing. What a week. We have been waiting for this moment all year. The fact that the run is a few months late is whatever at this point. They are here and let's capitalize on it.
5 of 7 Days on the Water!
I made it out five days this past week, three of which were scouting endeavors. Monday, my wife Kim joined me as we scouted an area I haven’t visited in many years. The area was alive with fingerling mullet, but was absent of activity.
