I believe summer has arrived in full effect here in the New Smyrna Beach area. The temperature is hot and the fishing is as well. We have had a good amount of bait move in throughout Mosquito Lagoon and north into the backwaters of New Smyrna. The trout and redfish can be found mixed in with the bait pods. Shrimp and live finger mullet have been working well along with spoons , soft plastics and plugs.
The snook are still chewing well . They have been hanging around all kinds of structure from New Smyrna beach south through Oakhill. Shrimp and plugs have been working best to trick the snook. The water temps have also warmed up and our tarpon are really starting to get happy making regular appearances throughout the backwaters. Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394

This past week has been a little on the windy side to say the least. It has definitely made it a little challenging in the open waters of Mosquito Lagoon. We have fought through it and over came the hurdle to boat fish. Look for redfish , snook and trout holding on the windward points throughout the New Smyrna Beach waters. Beating the bushes with both artificials and live bait has been the trick. Live finger mullet , shrimp and soft plastics seem to work the best. Hopefully the weather will be calming for the upcoming week and bringing everything back to normal.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The weather is continuing to warm and become more stable. I definitely believe summer is upon us and that will put our fish here in the New Smyrna Beach area into their summer time patterns. Look for the redfish and trout to hold up in the shallows early in the morning milling around with the schools of bait fish. As the water starts to heat up later in the day they will start to move off to the slightly deeper ledges. The snook will continue to hang around the structure in the north Mosquito Lagoon and into New Smyrna Beach. Spoons , soft plastics and plugs have all been working well along with live shrimp and finger mullet. The weather looks like it will continue to be good throughout the week and continue to get warmer.
