Welcome to 2013, we have had a great year of fishing here on Mosquito Lagoon Florida, ending with a fun December, winter cold has set in, water temp has been 55”F in the open water and lower on the flats in the morning. Our sunny pretty winter days are prime sight fishing with clear water and schooling shallow water Redfish, select size live shrimp being my bait of choice for sight casting Reds. Seatrout are also schooled up in winter, difference being many of the Trout schools are in deeper water on drop offs and in slough holes, artificial lures work great for them, jigs with Gulp shrimp or soft plastic tails to get it on the bottom where the fish are in cold water. Here is young Ethan with a great 29” Redfish he caught first thing in the morning last week, sight cast from a school we were watching swim around in front of us at our first stop.

Here you get to see me as my clients made me pose with this nice Red because I hooked him from atop my poling platform and handed the rod off to the customer to reel in.

Brothers Alex and Zach each caught a few nice Reds along with their dad Fred on the fun family trip when the 3 of them went with me a couple weeks ago.

Mixed bag fishing trips are also always fun here in the Edgewater Backcountry, winter pattern mostly with Trout, a few Redfish, usually lots of Bluefish, with the chance of a few Sheepshead or Black Drum, and usually a couple other species in the mix.
