Everything is Biting Offshore
We only made it offshore two days due to the weather but it’s hot out there right now. Everything seems to be biting. We are getting Amberjack’s fairly deep, grouper in 150’, kingfish on the reef and Mahi on the troll.
Good Sight Fishing
With all of the rain, the water in the lagoon is high but has remained clear which has allowed for some outstanding sight fishing this week. On overcast days the trout bite has been on fire using either croakers, pigfish or topwater plugs like the skitter walk.
Snook and Tarpon in Sebastian River
The rain has made it tough to fish but for those that have ventured out we are seeing big snook and tarpon in the Sebastian River. The black drum bite has remained strong around the docks as well.
Good Action in the Grand Canal
The Grand Canal has been hot with reports of slots reds, small snook and mangrove snapper. Fish live shrimp up against the mangroves for your best action. At Mather’s Bridge the mangrove snapper have been pretty consistent as well.
Yep, It’s Still Raining
Well, with the rain there is not much to report... We still have big black drum and big reds being caught in Haulover Canal -- use live blue crabs. Our shrimping has gotten better in Titusville.
Ready for Beach Snook
I can't believe it's this time of year again already! Hopefully these weeds will clear out and we will be targeting snook on the beach.
Despite Rain, Water Remaining Clear
The weather wasn’t the best this week as we had to cancel a few trips but we managed to get out a few days. Despite all the rain, the water inside the lagoon remained clear.
Topwater Tony Goes Soft
I seldom fish on a charter unless asked OR when I'm fishing with Tony (Mr. Top-water). Tony is on a mission to catch a 10 pound spotted seatrout and to make things more challenging he uses Skitterwalk plugs almost exclusively.
It’s Friday, Everybody!
It's Friday everybody! Welcome to the weekend and we hope everybody had a great week despite the weather conditions. The Anglers that were able to get out in between thunderstorms caught a variety of fish in the lagoon and some small sharks showed up around the causeways. The sheepshead, mangrove snapper and trout are also still snapping.
On the Radio with Mark Moses: 5/18/2018
Spacefish checks in with the Mark Moses Show on Sports Radio 1960AM THE FAN to talk some Space Coast fishing! Ryan Wood of RWood Outdoors also joins the conversation to discuss the current controversy surrounding the sport of land based shark fishing.
Tournament Director Champion
Local Brevard County resident, Captain Ed Dwyer, takes first out of 24 teams at the Baker's Bay Invitational in Great Guana Key, Bahamas.
IRL Canals are Alive!
The canals in the Central IRL are really fishy with the recent rain as of 5/14. Cast net a lot of finger mullet on the flats (they are thick right now) and be prepared for tarpon, snook, reds, and trout.
