Short Central Florida Fishing Report
Thank you for reading this short central Florida fishing report. I’m in the middle of a project and took a few minutes off to crank this out.
FISHING!
Monday– went to Port Canaveral. There must be some mahi running, because the parking lot was completely full. In the Mitzi I am not going mahi fishing, not here at least.
I was able to net a couple dozen menhaden. I saw a kingfish skyrocket so I set out a bait. It captured a northern sennet. A second bait was mangled by a bluefish.
I went out three mikes and looked around a buoy. There were three great barracuda there. The buoy barracudas never bite. These three didn’t, either.
Close to the beach I saw two tarpon roll. I put out a bait. A bluefish mangled it. I did catch a bluefish on a jig, the only other fish I got.
Did not see much other than what’s reported.
Tuesday– went to Mosquito Lagoon for some kayak fishing. The wind was blowing hard enough to be invigorating. I had two good fly shots, neither fish ate. I pooched a few more with the help of that invigorating wind. The two reds I did get both happened the same way- the fish were shallow, pushing a wake. I threw a DOA Shrimp in front, and they nailed it.
The bait was a DOA Shrimp. Same photo as last week!
Saw some spoonbills among many other bird species, and as a bonus a rocket went up!
Snotty weather precluded fishing the rest of the week.
Life is great and I love my work!
Every day is a blessing. Don’t waste it- Go Fishing!
