Mosquito Lagoon - Saltwater Fishing Report
Can you say Gulp! I knew you could, so get you some and catch fish like we do. Making believers with such a great product is not hard after a few nice fish in the box in a short time. Yeah, some days are a little slower than others but we are catching fish on Gulp when the live baiters don't. A few reluctant guides don't have the right stuff to fish with and suffer when their live bait has failed them. Covering ground with Johnson Silver Minnow spoons and Gulp shrimp has put fish in the boat for us for years.
Dick Brooks and Bob took thirty fish, casting Gulp shrimp and spoons on the Mosquito Lagoon flats with me. 27 Redfish, 2 trout and 1 flounder made up the mornings catch for the duo. On another charter Chad and Mike Subasic were very excited to find out that we were going to toss Gulp and Silver minnow spoons all morning eager to learn how to fish artificial lures. They were sold after the morning they had, catching flounder, trout and redfish on artificial lures. Mike had mentioned on the way in, wow no live bait to worry about buying, catching, dieing etc. Just open the bag or Gulp Alive container and cast. If you rig Capt. Joe Porcelli style your Gulp will go a long way. Then you can stick them back in the Gulp juice and use them another day. When you use my rigging the Gulp bait slides up the line most of the time and you can catch more fish on that bait. I have caught five fish on one bait before, can't do that with a shrimp. Plus you don't have to go in the live well every time the pinfish chew your natural shrimp off.
The Johnson Silver Minnow spoon is metal and you can catch hundreds of fish on that one lure. Most of the Mosquito Lagoon flats are holding fish and finding the notch in that flat where they are feeding is a mater of knowing the fish's pattern. Water levels are fluctuating this time of year and you should know the area before you blast a flat. Don't trash the lagoons grass flats, we all want our grand kids to have a place to fish in the future. If you want to catch fish call me or visit my web site and I will put you on them, Guaranteed!
