Mosquito Lagoon - Saltwater Fishing Report

With summer coming to a end and fall upon us things in the Lagoon system has started to change. The larger red fish have started to spawn look for large quantities in the Indian river lagoon and south mosquito lagoon along with large numbers in the inlets.
We have also recently had a low pressure setting on top of central FL for a few days dumping high amounts of water into the lagoon system in the upwards of 12" to 13". With that being said look for red fish and trout cruising the flooded grass and flats in search
of new feeding opportunities. These fish can be caught on soft plastics rigged weedless and sight casted using live shrimp look for tails and cruising fish. The tarpon bite has started to slow down with most of the larger fish migrating back south for the upcoming winter
but you can still find some juveniles holding around the bridges and inlets feeding on bait pods.As fall and winter moves forward look for the water to start to clear as the temperatures start to drop with each passing cold front . These upcoming months are my favorite time of year
to be on the water clear water and cooler weather ads up to great fishing.
