This past week has been hotter then Africa in the middle of summer . The bite has been good from New Smyrna Beach south through Mosquito Lagoon. The bait has been moving in extremely thick along the intracoastal and up onto the flats. With all the bait moving in thick has made for a good bite from a variety of species. With the water temps rising the tarpon have been really active throughout the deeper water along with the jacks mixed in. The trout and redfish have been mixed in with the bait pods on the flats and the backwater bays. The early morning plug bite has been good in and around the New Smyrna area the moving to spoons and soft plastics as the sun gets higher. Live bait has been working as well from live shrimp to live finger mullet.

The summer heat has definitely started to arrive making for some pretty warm days this past week. The warmer weather has not effected the bite here in the New Smyrna Beach area with clients bringing several redfish, trout and snook boat side last week. The bait continues to be plentiful in the backwaters south to Mosquito Lagoon . The water is starting to warm up quite a bit making the bite a little better early morning and early evening. Plugs have been working well early along with soft plastics and spoons also live shrimp and mullet as well. Looks like the Sumer pattern is here to stay for a while so watch out for the late afternoon thunder storms that are common this time of year.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 It seems as though summer has set in here and around the New Smyrna Beach area. We are starting to get our afternoon thunder storms and strong afternoon winds. This time of year is a great time to catch several different species from snook, redfish, trout, black drum and tarpon. The bite has been good throughout Mosquito Lagoon and north through New Smyrna Beach. Look for snook and tarpon in the backwaters holding near structure with moving water. The trout and redfish can be found mixed in with the large pods of bait in the Lagoon. Early in the morning has been producing well with plugs then moving over to soft plastics or live bait. It looks like we may have some weather coming in later in the week making for a good bite prior to the arrival of the weather.
