This fishing has been excellent in the Indian and Banana River lagoons around Melbourne, FL. I've been out of commission for a couple weeks with a bad shoulder, but I am ready to get back at it next week. Everything is biting right now Redfish, Tarpon, Snook, Black Drum, Seatrout,...

This fishing has been excellent in the Indian and Banana River lagoons around Melbourne, FL. I've been out of commission for a couple weeks with a bad shoulder, but I am ready to get back at it next week. Everything is biting right now Redfish, Tarpon, Snook, Black Drum, Seatrout, Mangrove Snappers, and more! It is one of the best times of the year to fish. I am nearly full for the rest of May, but I have plenty of June dates left. The Snook, Tarpon, and Black Drum bite should be epic in June!

Been getting better in the Ponce inlet area with wind and swell coming down a bit. Still plenty of sheepshead, slot Reds, a few trout and starting to see some mangrove snapper and nice flounder.

Fishing has been solid. Trout are back in the breaks and flats, reds are starting to school a little better. Tide has been high so fish have been up in the mangroves and on shorelines.

Fishing has been good since the seaweed and wind calmed down. We still have to deal with it here and there but there are more than enough opportunities to wet a line and put some fish in the box. We've been seeing limits of pompano, giant whiting and lots of variety in the surf lately. Give us a ring, fishing is good!
