Had the good fortune of being invite by my friend Capt. Joe Roberts of Indian River Guides to a canoe trip on the Banana River No Motor Zone Wednesday morning. Could not leave Joe's driveway until the ice melted off the windshield of the truck. Arriving at Kars Park around sunrise, slick calm water, we started seeing some tails and fish moving about in the 45' cold water. I caught this approx. 15 pound Redfish on a medium size fresh shrimp cast next to the fish and let sit for quite while before he very very slowly moved off with it.
A little further down we go , see more fish moving , caught this 20 plus pound Red also on a shrimp. Fish fights were slow motion but spirited in the freezing water with only short runs.
No actual measurements or weights as the fish were not the only creatures in the canoe moving in slow motion. Then went off searching for schools of Black Drum, covered lots of water but no luck on finding the elusive Drum school. Also caught a 20" Trout on a gulp shrimp cast at a small school of slot Reds and apparently Trout. I seem to have my wool hat on backwards, don't really have horns on my head. Capt.

I offer Mosquito Lagoon Flats Fishing trips for Redfish and Seatrout, for the novice or experienced angler alike. I also offer Indian River Backcountry Fishing trips, that is mixed bag fishing for Seatrout, Redfish, Black Drum, Jack Crevalle, Ladyfish, and more. On the average Backcountry trip we catch between 10 and 15 (or more) different species of saltwater fish. This type of trip can be extremely entertaining for beginners or experienced anglers. My boat accommodates from 1 to 4 anglers. Located close to DAYTONA BEACH, NEW SMYRNA BEACH and ORLANDO. Feel free to contact me at any time with questions you may have about my fishing charters.
CHILDREN ALWAYS WELCOME – FAIR PRICES
