With a pretty busy week running charters I was able to locate fish in several different spots on Mosquito Lagoon. Super Bowl Sunday, I had a double with a morning and afternoon charter. During our morning trip was a good day. On the water at 6:30 AM, well before daylight to an area where reds were bunched up very well from the day before. We arrived at the hole around 6:45AM to find nobody anywhere near us which was a good thing as the word "was out" on this area among the guides. The beauty of us guides on Mosquito Lagoon is we (most of us) all get along and work together, so it's not uncommon for us to work schools of redfish with each other.....which really pays off for our clients.
The Morning trip brought around 30 redfish to the boat with slot fish and rat reds. The afternoon trip was a little harder of a bite, but we still managed 7 or 8 reds along with 3 trout one going 7 pounds at 28".
Fishing is a year round thing on our inshore estuary so book now as February is filling fast but I do have days open. Located less than an hour from the Orlando area and 30 minutes from Daytona Beach.
