Blown Away

Mosquito Lagoon - Saltwater Fishing Report

Click to Enlarge Photo


Wow what a blow we had last week no name just strong wind. The fishing was shut down for a day but back on track the next. I had Luke Scott Terry and John out for a gusty day and caught twenty + fish. We took shots at everything we could. We sight casted at six redfish that were tailing. OK we caught six of the reds we had shots at. The only reason we got to do that is we went in the lees of the islands. We caught the reds on Gulp shrimp in the natural color, hooked Capt. Joe style so your bait will suspend. The fish were real aggressive trying to build that layer of fat before winter. Most of the redfish we are catching are in the 22 to 26 " size because the big fish are spawning. I know where they are but we have not been targeting them.

We also caught jacks, ladyfish, black seabass, flounder and trout. We rigger our Gulp with a jig head to get down to these fish in the deeper water. You can always tell when it is hunting season. The waters clear out for the winter and open a lot of territory up to fish. Look for the bait pushing and pitch your jig past them and work it through the school. If you keep getting nailed by ladyfish let it sink and work the bottom column where the trout and flounder are. Catch those trout now before the month ends because the closed season in Volusia co. is Nov. Dec. Flounder are here so get you some while the getting is good. Think like a fish to catch fish, or just call me.386 314 5656
