Lagoon reds, which spend their whole lives inshore unlike most areas where they move offshore to spawn could quite get ya on the redfish of a lifetime! Salinity levels in Mosquito Lagoon are pretty much equal to the Ocean levels which makes the Lagoon world famous.
Redfish are showing in good numbers tailing in grass that's barely beneath the surface in schools of well over 75 fish with black drum very close to them. Look to the north...it's a school of reds. Look behind you...it's a school of black drum. It's kinda like a game as of late, go get a red, then a black drum. Take your pick!
Today's trip was with Ron and Dudley doing some goofing around that turned into some great fishing. Ron took the fish of the day. Talk about a "slob"....a 34"redfish weighing in at 21 pounds! Way to go! I had one a couple days ago that was 39" weighing 22 pounds just to give ya an idea how nice of a fish this was. It did'nt take us long to have our limit of 3 reds going 22 - 26" along with this bruiser. Great job guys and I look forward to our next trip.
