I had the opportunity this week to take my best bud out fishing. He currently lives in Tennessee so any time he is back home we try to get out on the water. In the […]

This summer has been a whirlwind of different kinds of fishing conditions but my best luck has come super early in the morning. Typically, I let the sun come up a little so I can […]

As a high school teacher this year has been really weird to say the least, so I was happy that this officially week kicked off the first day of summer, wohooo! I’m trying to use my break to explore new areas in Brevard that I usually do not have enough time to go to. This week I fished a few miles of super shallow mangrove islands. I was able to find around 15-20 redfish and a couple of juvenile tarpon’ but all were very stubborn to eat soft plastics. I eventually convinced one to come and play, but other than that it was just a nice day to get out on the water, and see some cool views…See y’all next week!

This week I was scouting some new areas to get out of the wind. Using google maps I found an area that had a long mangrove line that was protected from the wind. I did not launch until 2pm in the afternoon, and wasn’t expecting to catch much that late into the middle of the day. The water was super clear in some places, so I slowly bumped my trolling motor down the mangrove line. It wasn’t long until I started seeing mullet and mojarra on the sandy flats next to the mangroves.

This week I signed up for the Central Florida Shootout Tournament aiming for the inshore categories. I started off at 9pm fishing some residential dock lights / snook lights. I find these to be very […]

Good day fellow fishing nerds, The last couple of weeks have been pretty challenging with the wind. I personally don’t like dealing with it (who likes casting into the wind anyways) so ill run and […]

This week I continued to find clear water in shallow, mangrove protected areas. It seems like it takes me a couple of hours of slowly moving on the trolling motor before I find a section with fish. There is no grass but a lot of mangrove roots, so it’s important to move slowly and keep your eyes peeled for any activity. Once you see a fish, chances are more are nearby. Continue to be patient and slow your trolling motor down as much as possible while still making way. Fishing artificials such as gulp shrimp rigged weedless or cut bait has been the trick these last few weeks.

What’s up fish n geeks, It’s been a minute, I’m a little rusty at this. Just because I haven’t posted in a while though, doesn’t mean I haven’t kept up with my lurking. Stay creepin. […]

Whats up fishin geeks, Another week of mixed conditions. On one hand we have had lots of wind, which isn’t the end of the world while inshore fishing but makes things a little tricky. On […]

Whats up fish n geeks, this week I woke up early (for me) and tried my hand at some morning fishing. You’d think being a teacher / fisherman I would be a morning person, but I can’t hang. I have to admit though the majority of the time I wake up early to go fishing the juice is worth the squeeze.
