Best Fishing Locations

Hello,
I'm Captain Richard and this web page is "supposed" to represent the fishing on Florida's central east coast from Mosquito Lagoon and southward towards Sebastian Inlet. I gotta tell you, I've seen this matrix on so many charts and magazines in our area and as simple as it seems it's been very difficult for me to compile and finalize because each year seems to have it's inconsistencies and often changes due to weather, fishing pressure or other influences.

For instance in the January of 2010 we had a deadly cold front that I've not seen in my half century of living in Florida that threw off our fishing in the lagoons and our offshore fishing too. In 2009 we had cobia the entire summer both nearshore and offshore which is unusual because cobia numbers tend to thin out during the summer unless we have cold upwellings and clear water moves in. Other factors that influence fish being present or feeding are expected bait runs like the fall mullet run or unexpected bait producing unusual feeding and conditions for preditor fish.

Well I hope you understand... It's difficult to be exact when it comes to marine life, weather and conditions, but this chart below will give you an idea of how things generally are in the specified areas on Florida's east central coastline. Don't hold our feet to the fire when reading this chart but it's a good fishing guideline when planning your next fishing trip to The Space Coast on Central Florida's east coastline adjacent to Orlando.
