Ponce Inlet area is producing as expected for this time in June and had thrown in a few surprises. With the regular slot and just over slot reds and Snook we are seeing nice numbers of tarpon and last week were catching Permit in the inlet. The permit and tarpon coming on flat lined Select Shrimp and small Blue crabs.

Trout bite has been on 🔥 and the red fish have been showing up on the flats. Shark season is upon us so the big ones will be lurking in the bay.

🎣 The fishing has been excellent the Indian and Banana River Lagoons near Melbourne, FL. Everything is biting! We had a good bite for Snook, Redfish, Black Drum, Mangrove Snappers, Seatrout, and Jack Crevalle. Tarpon have made some appearances as well as a few Sheepshead.

Springtime has turned to summer and the fish bite has remained red hot. We have so many opportunities in our local waters right now just jumped in overgrown tarpon fishing for trout today. This year's spring Snook season was the best I've seen. In a good long time with the number of fish in the slot.
Not that we were keeping them but people here on spring break were getting fish over 30 inches more days than not.
With the water temp being close to 90 remember to slow down your presentations clipped baits and cut baits are working excellent...

for red fish and tarpon
We just got our second hatch of greenbacks they're still a little bit on the small side, but the mangrove snapper are really getting fired up on them
This will continue for the next few months as the moons are approaching. Excellent time to get out there and get some tasty snapper.
The first photo is of two purpleheart recipients true American heroes I was fortunate enough to get to fish with through the wounded warriors foundation with Jeremy's 33 inch Snook

We've got another month here in Tampa Bay before we head to key west for about six weeks. Let's get your Captains Experience is booked here or join me in key west for some mahi, wahoo, tuna, and lobster just to name a few.

Tight lines for now see on the water enjoying your next Captain's experience

In the river here in New Smyrna Beach the fishing has held up nicely. We have been regularly getting Redfish, Black Drum, Flounder and Snook. With the cancellation of Red Snapper season this has put a lot more pressure on other fisheries but they have held up.
