Mosquito Lagoon - Saltwater Fishing Report
Feb 2012
Believe it or not it is already Feb but the weird thung is that our average tempature has been 70 degrees here in Central FL. We did have a couple of cold fronts earlier this winter which did throw our fish into there winter patterns but it did not last all that long. With the constant change in wind directions and weather the water in the lagoon has been abnormally higher then usual this past week. You can still find schools of redfish through out the lagoon sytem one key is focus on the water level and bait supply. If you find fish holding in a certain area on low water conditions they most likely will not be there when the water comes up look at the flats or shelfs adjacent to the area that was out of water. These fish are going to move due to fishing pressure and new food souces. The trout bite has been good with most of your trout holding in the deeper water under schools of bait basically like the summer time pattern. I think that the fish in a whole are just a little confused due to the unseasonal weather so until we get a steady winter weather system this is what we have to work with. On a brighter note the bite has been good on both red fish and trout with large numbers being caaught on several differnt baits. from live finger mullet , cut bait , shrimp and also pin fish for artifical I have great success on Aqua Dream spoons and small soft plastics. Good luck and be safe out there.
