Summer has arrived in New Smyrna Beach with some hotter weather and even hotter fishing. We have been bringing several species boat side this past week like snook, redfish and trout to mention a few. The afternoon storms have started to make an appearance this past week and should continue through the weekend. We have been targeting the structure up north in the New Smyrna Beach backwaters for snook , trout and jacks. Moving south into Mosquito Lagoon we have been focusing on the shallow grass flats with bait. The redfish and trout have been mixed in with the bait pods. Live bait and artificials have both been working well to create a bite.

We have started to get a little rain here in the New Smyrna Beach area which has definitely helped our drought conditions. The recent rains and wind has also stirred the waters up from Daytona Beach south through Mosquito Lagoon making for some dirtier conditions. With the dirtier conditions the sight fishing has not been great but the structure fishing has made up for it . Focusing on bars , points and ledges have been providing a great bite . Live bait and artificials have both been working great with the breezy , dirty conditions. It looks as the weather will start to settle down toward the end of the week and into next week.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The New Smyrna Beach waters have been filled with life this past week . From Daytona Beach south through Mosquito Lagoon the life has been very vibrant with shrimp , finger mullet and all the predators chasing them . The weather has been great with a nice breeze and mostly clear skies making for some great catching. We have been catching on both live bait and artificials with a mix bag coming boat side. The trout , jacks and redfish have been hanging in and around the pods of bait throughout the backwaters of New Smyrna and Mosquito Lagoon. The snook and tarpon have been hanging in the deeper water taking advantage of the last little shrimp run . The weather looks to be good for the up coming holiday week and the fish should be ready to party as well.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 New Smyrna Beach had received a little taste of some Summer weather this past week and I will say it got toasty. The fish did not seem to mind the hotter temps as the bite has still continued to be strong throughout the waters of Daytona Beach south to Mosquito Lagoon. The bait has also started to make an appearance with good numbers of mullet on the flats and throughout the bays of New Smyrna Beach. The redfish , trout , black drum and snook have all been chewing well . Shrimp , cut bait and pinfish have been working well along with soft plastics , plugs and spoons for artificial’s . The weather looks to be stable and warm moving into the weekend so the bite should only continue to increase.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The recent weather throughout New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon has been a blessing this past week but the summer heat up is upon us . With the summer heat comes a heat up in fishing action as well and I can already see the fish preparing for their summer time patterns. The bite has been good from the Intracoastal of Daytona Beach with great numbers of jacks , trout and other species mixed in with the bait pods chewing well . Then as you move south into the backwaters of New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon the redfish , black drum and trout have been fired up as well . The weather looks to be on a warming trend moving into next week and securing the already good bite.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 Sprung time in the backwaters of New Smyrna Beach is the place to be . The fish have been happy with several different species coming boat side this past week along with a few slams as well . Mosquito Lagoon has been producing some great sight fishing for both black drum and redfish when the weather decides to cooperate. The creeks and the flats are showing great signs of life with bait fish and where’s there’s bait fish you will find game fish. I thought we were finished with the cold fronts for the year but it seems as though there may be one dipping down late this week early next week . With that being said the weather looks pretty good through Saturday and the fish are definitely chewing.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The spring time bite seems to be really firing up here in the New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon waters . The shrimp have been making a pretty good run this past week which has been firing up the trout and snook along the shorelines . The redfish and black drum are still milling around on the shallow grass and sand bottoms of Mosqutio Lagoon. This little recent cool front has been pleasant with highs The low 80’s . The weather continues to look good going into the weekend throughout the Central Fl area.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 It seems as though the start to April is starting out a little bumpy with some adverse weather conditions throughout the Daytona Beach and New Smyrna Beach coast . We had a few nice days to start with clear skies and a little breeze making for some great sight fishing and catching in the Mosquito Lagoon waters . The redfish and trout have been working the shallow grass flats of Mosquito Lagoon focusing on shrimp , pinfish and mullet.
The snook and jacks have been holding in the deeper waters in and around New Smyrna Beach and Daytona Beach . Focusing on structure and bait the jacks and snook have been raging havoc on shrimp and bait pods. Unfortunately we have had a low pressure move in on top of the whole state bringing rain and wind forage few days but should be moving on its way by mid week making for some great weather and fishing later in the week into the weekend. Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 New Smyrna Beach has had some great chamber of commerce days this past week with clear skies and plenty of sun. The fish have definitely liked the weather as well with several different species coming boat side this past week . As we start to move forward into Spring the fishing will only continue to e good.
The redfish , trout and black drum have all been working the potholes and grass flats of Mosquito Lagoon . Live bait and artificials have both been working well as live shrimp has been the go to. The Intracoastal and backwaters of New Smyrna Beach has also been producing a great bite with snook, redfish , jacks and trout all coming boat side . Shrimp and live finger mullet have been doing the trick while focusing on the deeper shorelines and oyster beds holding bait. The weather looks to be good for the up coming week as it seems that Spring is in full swing. Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoons Spring time pattern is ramping up . The bite has been solid this past week and as we enter Spring it will only continue. The redfish have been happy and tailing across the shallow grass flats of Mosquito Lagoons with the trout and black drum in the mix as well . The deeper backwaters of Daytona Beach and New Smyrna beach have been producing great numbers of snook , jacks , sheepshead and other game fish. The weather looks to be good moving into next week with possible afternoon showers which is the start to that Spring /Summer time pattern.
