November 11th, 2007 Mosquito Lagoon and Indian River Fishing Reports
Today my clients and I headed out in search of trout. The northern part of the Mosquito Lagoon this time of year really lights up. With the twisting and turning islands and creeks, it allows you to get back in seclusion away from other anglers. This also gives you almost an unlimited area to cover. Whether you are fly fishing redfish with a 7 weight fly rod or throwing a Shimano Stradic 2500, this is the place to be this time of year. Any time of year for Florida is great! We caught several (50+) trout along some of the parks campsite islands throughout the Canaveral National Seashore. However the south end in the Titusville area will produce the same effect. The redfish(red drum)were harder to pursue but by days end we had landed a few smaller ones. The biggest being around 5 pounds. Overall we had a good day on the water. On the south side the Banana River near Cocoa Beach has been great for redfish and trout. Fly fishing here has been epic as well! Stellar is a good way to desribe it. Grab your canoe and head this way. Using a 5 weight fly rod will bring you some winter pleasure on the Banana River no motor zone. Clauser minnows or brown crabs with a size 4 hook will be one of the better choices. Use the same tactics used on the Mosquito Lagoon and Indian River. Sight fishing around the Oak Hill area has been just outstanding. Fish the banks and shore lines for tailing redfish. Search white holes for nice trout. As always handle the fish with caution for that release. Site Map Guide To Florida Inshore Fishing Charters Captain Drew Cavanaugh |
