Sorry for the delay on the fishing reports. My website guru went on vacation and the back end of my website crashed. So.... I was unable to update the site. Good news is, it is fixed and I am back on the keyboard.



Today I headed South a bit to check out a couple of new spots for Snook and Tarpon. Beautiful morning on the water and the fish were hungry. I covered a lot of water and found lots of great Snook and Tarpon habitat.



Could not help but to throw the fly a bit and it did not take long to get my first Snook of the day!!! Caught a few more Snook, Sea Trout, Mangrove Snapper, and came tight on one Tarpon but no hook up. Did see a few Tarpon rolling this morning. I will be back there with anglers for sure!!!





Early last week I fished with Mark and Karen from California. They were in town for a work conference and had to experience the grass flats of Mosquito Lagoon. Mark started out with the fly rod, but the wind picked up and we switched to light tackle. We had some good shots at a couple of nice schools of fish, but no players. The mix of clouds and sun, made it real tough to see that day. The Redfish were spooking before we could get a good look at them. Mark did get this nice Sea Trout and Karen had one on that we lost at the boat.
These two learned a ton about sightfishing in shallow water and you will see them back again on their next trip to Orlando. Thanks guys!



The end of last week, Kevin from the Orlando area joined me again on Mosquito Lagoon. This was Kevin's third trip with me and man did his casting improve a ton!!! Practice, Practice, Practice.... and you will receive!!! What a day we had on the Lagoon. Kevin had shots and hook ups on Snook, Tarpon, Redfish, Black Drum, and Sea Trout. Crazy day!!!



The first few fish of the day on fly were ladyfish and this nice Sea Trout.
Kevin's first on fly. He also caught his first Redfish on fly as well.





This little Redfish was so cool!!!!! I think that fish was the smallest Redfish I have ever had someone catch on fly. It was precious!!! What a fabulous day we had and Kevin almost got the ML Super Slam. Nice work my friend and I look forward to fishing with you again in August. Keep casting that fly rod and your success will grow even more.

The fishing is out of control good right now and with Snook and Tarpon in the mix, it gets that much more exciting on the water. I still have a few dates in June and July open, so give me a call or email to book your day.

See you on the water,

Capt. Todd
