The heat has continued to be relentless this past week but has not affected the bite at all. We have been having a steady bite from New Smyrna Beach south throughout the Mosquito Lagoon. Early starts and early finishes have been the key. Look for the bait hanging on the flats and shorelines and the fish will not be far. Plugs and spoons have been working early but live bait has been a little better bite. It looks like we have some possible weather working into Central Florida next week . If it does make its way , it may actually help to cool the temps down and continue the bite.

The bite continues in the New Smyrna Beach and Daytona Beach waters. We have been targeting several different species from redfish and trout to snook and black drum. Although the temperatures have been pretty toasty this past week it hasn’t stopped the bite. Both artificial’s and live bait have been working well especially early morning. By mid morning moving over to live bait has been the ticket as the fish start to move to deeper water off the flats.
We still have plenty of bait scattered through Mosquito Lagoon and the backwaters of New Smyrna which continues to hold fish in the area . Targeting the bait pods early has been successful for both redfish and trout. The up coming week looks to be the same weather pattern as what we have had so the bite should continue to be strong . Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 We are definitely in a summer heat wave here in the Central FL area with daily highs in the mid to upper 90’s. The water temps have increased as well making the bite a little slower due to the warmer waters . That does not mean the bite has stopped we just have to focus on the cooler parts of the days Luke the early mornings or late evenings. The bait is still plentiful throughout the New Smyrna Beach waters south into Mosquito Lagoon. Live bait has been the choice the past couple of weeks but slow worked artificials will produce a bite as well. We have been targeting redfish, snook , trout and the occasional tarpon when they want to cooperate . It looks like we could have our afternoon showers back in the forecast starting next week which will help out on the cool down both in the air and water temperatures.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394  This bite throughout New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon continues to be strong. We have been boating great numbers of nice trout and redfish along with snook in the mix as well. The bait continues to be in thick throughout the backwaters and Mosquito Lagoon. Getting on the water early has definitely been the trick as the bite starts to fade as the heat increases. Both artificial’s and live bait have been producing bites. The summer time pattern is in full affect with showers arriving by mid day so once again early starts are the key.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The bite continues to be strong throughout the New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon waters. Even though it seems like we have been living on the face of the sun this past week , with heat index over 100 it has definitely not effected the fish. It has although made them chew early and start slacking off by mid morning as the heat starts up.
The bait pods are still in great numbers throughout the backwaters and where there’s bait the fish can be found. Plugs and soft plastics early have been working well then moving over to live bait or spoons to finish out the morning. It looks as though we are now into our summer time pattern and the fish will continue to chew, if you want a constant bent rod this is the time to be out there. The forecast looks good for the up coming week with clear skies early and possible afternoon thunderstorms to cool the evening. Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 I am glad to see a light at the end of the tunnel with all the rain we have received this past week. The fish did not seem to be bothered but it did make for close calls with storms. It did however bring an influx of water to the New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon area but seems to be residing as fast as it arrived.
The bite seems to be steady through the morning and then teetering off as the sun gets higher in the sky. The flats have had a lot of bait scattered with a mixture of fish holding in and around the bait pods. Live bait and artificials have been working well and by the looks of the five day forecast the weather should be holding stable for a while. Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The summer time weather has been getting a little active this past week with a lot of thunderstorms through the New Smyrna Beach area. It looks as though we are starting to get into an afternoon storm kind of pattern making for a good evening cool down. But with all this extra rain fall it has increased the water levels throughout Mosquito Lagoon but seems to have not affected the the bite. We are still boating several different species from redfish , trout , snook and black drum just to mention a few. The artificial and live bait bite have both been good . Throwing plugs early before the sunrise has been causing strikes on the surface then moving to a subsurface or live bait later in the morning has been working well. The weather looks to be good this upcoming week and the bite should continue to stay steady.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The weather has been hot this past week and the fishing as well. We have been boating a variety of species like redfish, trout and snook . The bait continues to be holding in the back waters of New Smyrna Beach stretching south through Mosquito Lagoon.
Plugs and artificial have been working well early in the morning then moving to live bait as the sun gets higher in the sky. It seems as though we have set in on our summer time pattern with high temperatures in the mid day bringing in afternoon showers and thunderstorms. The weather looks to be about the same into next week hit with afternoon storms so the morning bite will be the best. Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The bite is still holding strong throughout the backwaters of New Smyrna Beach and Mosquito Lagoon. We have been continuing to good numbers of trout and redfish boat side along with the occasional snook that wants to cooperate . The bait pods have also been plentiful making for great targets early in the morning for a trout or redfish bite. As the sun gets higher the bait has been moving a little deeper and the fish have been following. Targeting the pot holes in the deeper water has been working well with both artificial and live baits. The extended forecast looks like we will be getting warmer weather along with the summer time afternoon showers.
Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394 The weather has been awesome this past week with highs in the mid 80’s and clear skies. The fishing continues to be good throughout the New Smyrna Beach waters along with Mosquito Lagoon. The redfish have been holding in the shallows mixed in with the bait pods . The trout can be found shallow early ten moving off the flats as the sun starts to get bigger in the sky. Looking at the ten day forecast we may be getting some moisture later in the week but other than that it looks to continue to be stable . Bait has been plentiful on the flats with live finger mullet working well along with artificials as well.
