The Spotted Sea Trout bite remains hot in all 3 lagoon systems! D.O.A. Shadtail Cals and jerkbaits were the ticket for Richard Miller while Monique was using the Deadly Combo. Both landed a good number of Trout including several Gators up to 8-9lbs in the Banana River last week. We saw several Redfish but only 1 came to the boat that day. Most of the trout are being caught on the edges and drop offs of shallow flats around mullet pods.
Friday, Mike Edgerly hopped aboard to try his luck on some Mosquito Lagoon Redfish on fly. Mike is an avid fly fisherman from Minnesota and has never fished the Lagoon before. We were into some tailing Redfish in really skinny water that were actively feeding. The Maverick HPX-Tunnel really came in handy this day. Mike had lots of fish follow his fly and 3 actually ate but shortly came unbuttoned. No fish came to the boat but Mike had a great time in a new area and got to at least feel the power of an upper slot Redfish at the end of his line that day. We will get em’ next time Mike!
