This fishing was good in the Indian and Banana River lagoons around Melbourne, FL for the first half of spring break. We caught just about everything except Tarpon and Snook, which were seeing the effects of spring break and Easter traffic. We had good Redfishing, Black Drum, Seatrout, Mangrove Snappers, and even some smaller Snook though. A week of rain and slowed fishing pressure should light the fishing up in Late April and early May!

Lane and mangrove and school master snapper are starting to chew with the arrival of the white bait and the snook and spotted sea trout are also enjoying them.

Fishing has been really good in the river and the ocean. Had some sailfish action several weeks back along with a bunch of snappers, cobia, black drum, and snook. There was a huge School of black drum that were just outside Port Canaveral for several days. I'm out of town until next week.

The Juvenile Tarpon bite has been good! Jack Crevalle have been available and are fun to fight as well. Black Drum and Mangrove Snappers have provided some table fare for anglers looking to put a few in the fish box. Snook aren't really ready to consistently bite yet, but we've caught a few. Redfishing has slowed due to the quick warm up, but there are still some showing up each trip.

Fishing has been steady on the space coast! We're seeing catches of good whiting, bluefish and pompano. Some bigger black drum have showed up and they always make for a great fight. Sharks are present and fun for the whole family! Happy fishing

Redfishing has been great, Sheepshead a close second. There's been some scattered Black Drum and Trout action as well. On the warmer days we've started to see some juvenile Snook and Tarpon even!

Captain David was great. Super helpful, knowledgeable and quick to help everyone. Got us on fish quick while trying to get us on bigger fish. We all had a great experience
Tuesday, June 16th. We launched at 6am just as the sun was coming up. Valerie recommended we use shiners which were ideal. The bass can't resist. We boated 42 bass in an "extended" 4 hour trip. Valerie said that we fish until all the shiners are gone. She's the best.
Richard was great! He was on top of the fish, baiting our poles and getting us unstuck Everytime we got caught on the rocks.
He filleted our fish for us and even let my wife listen to her crappy music.
Five stars!
Rick was awesome! Good at communicating, was on time, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful! He made to process easy and fun. We caught lots of fish and saw dolphins and manatee. It was a great day.
Tim is the absolute best! We had a blast with him, he loves fishing, loves hanging out and just having a good time. Was very attentive to helping the people on our trip and we caught a ton of fish! Great boat and great gear. I would highly recommend Tim to anyone
