The bite continues to be strong throughout the waters of New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon. The weather has been great this past week triggering a chewing mood for our fish. Look for this activity to continue as the extended forecast shows a high pressure sitting over the state into next week.
The sight fishing has been good with numbers of black drum and red fish cruising the shallows of Mosquito Lagoon . The trout and snook have been making an appearance as well in the deeper water looking for a easy meal. Live bait has been the best choice but soft plastics and spoons have been getting the job done for artificial. Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394

The little last bit of winter still wants to hang around the Central FL area for another week. This past weekend was when the front moved through creating cooler temps and windy conditions. Before the front the bite was excellent throughout the New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon waters and will continue as the days warm this week.
We have been targeting several species from black drum , redfish , trout , snook and jacks. Both artificial’s and live bait have been working well . The smaller presentations have been working better with the cooler water temps and clear skies. Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The past couple of weeks have been chamber of commerce kinda days here in Central Florida. We have had highs in the 80’s and clear blue skies but unfortunately you must have a little bad to appreciate the good. We have had a small front come through over the weekend into Monday bringing some rain and wind.
The bite was good before the front and slowing down a bit over the weekend as the front moved through they should get right back on track as this weather moves out. The redfish, drum , snook and trout have all been chewing well from New Smyrna South through Mosquito Lagoon. Shrimp, mullet and pin fish have been working well for live bait and spoons , soft plastics and plugs for the artificial bite. The bite should only continue to get better as we move into spring followed by summer. Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The waters throughout the New Smyrna Beach area have been alive with activity this past week. My clients have been boating redfish, trout and black drum several different ways. We have caught them along the deeper shorelines in the backwaters of New Smyrna and also sight fishing them in the shallows of Mosquito Lagoon. The weather has been consistent making for a good bite and looks to continue through the weekend. Both artificial and live bait have been working well . Targeting the bait pods have been working well both on the flats and along the bars.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The weather and the fishing have been really good this past week throughout the waters of New Smyrna Beach. Looking at the extended forecast there really is no deviation from the current weather pattern allowing these fish to get set into a steady eating pattern.
The redfish and black drum have been chewing well in the shallows of Mosquito Lagoon where as the trout and snook can be found a little deeper. Live bait and artificials have both been working well . Live shrimp , finger mullet and mud minnows have been getting the job done for live bait. Where as soft plastics and ADL spoons have been the go to’s for artificials.
