The space coast has a lot going on! This week has been great fishing, from redfish and black drum in the river to snook along the beach, the bite has been pretty good!

This week is all about the tarpon! With the summer heat being tough to handle at times on us and the fish, the one species that always seems to thrive and even cooperate mid-day even with high water temps is the silver king.

The summer time pattern is still in full swing and right now has been giving us some excellent fishing! The flats have really been on fire with excellent numbers of redfish, larger seatrout, tarpon, and the beaches have been producing nice snook!

The redfish bite has really turned on! This week, the Mosquito Lagoon still seems to be producing great numbers of redfish and even some tarpon here and there.

The flats are heating up! There’s no doubt about it, the flats are definitely getting hot! With this being said, Mosquito Lagoon has been the place to be.

It’s all about the mullet! The summer pattern is in full swing so get on the water early for your best chance at a good day of fishing. This is the time of year when it’s possible to get the inshore slam: redfish, seatrout, snook and/or tarpon.

It’s tarpon time, the tarpon are making their way up the coast and now is the best time to target them! Look for pods of fish cruising anywhere from 10 to 40 feet of water off of the beach.

Nearshore fishing has been the best bet this week. Slow trolling live baits have been producing good numbers of kingfish, tarpon and cobia. These fish can also be targeted sight fishing as well! Look for large bait pods and the predators will be right behind them!

All three lagoon systems, the Indian River, Banana River, and Mosquito Lagoon are on fire with black drum! Look for these fish around drop offs from shallow sandbars and structures such as docks and bridge pilings.
