Finally back on the Mosquito Lagoon after returning from Louisiana, boy have things changed. I decided to hit the Northern part of the Lagoon where on recent trips have been fantastic for sight fishing. From the recent cold temperatures that we’ve been having, all of the fish that I’ve been on have moved somewhere else, so today was more of an exploring day than fishing the spots that usually hold fish for me. After some running around from spot to spot we finally located some fish but these fish were pretty spooky in the gin clear water, the hard part was to get them to eat an artificial lure without them seeing us first. After some refusals on lighter color baits, we switched to pumpkin seed and golden bream D.O.A. Cals which triggered the fish to eat. The redfish seemed to be more aggressive later in the afternoon and that’s when Marshall Brewer landed these nice redfish from a school of 40-50 fish. If there were 2 anglers on the bow, we could have easily gotten multiple double hook-ups today on Redfish. Marshall also caught a nice Flounder that popped off at the boat and had shots at huge trout in the 30+ inch range but they did not want anything to do with our offerings.
If you would like to book a trip in the gin clear waters of Mosquito Lagoon and sight cast to Redfish and big Trout, give me a call at (321) 303-7805 or email me at nativeflycharters@gmail.com. Thanks for visiting nativeflycharters.com!!
