Orlando, Titusville, Cocoa Beach, Cape Canaveral Fishing Report 3/25/12

These last two weeks of fishing have been unreal, it seems that everything is biting.  The cobia run is starting to slow down now off Port Canaveral but the kingfish bite has been on fire!  For you kingfish fans the time is now! The kingfish for the past two weeks have been in the 25-40pound range which are alot of fun to catch and watch as they sky rocket on the live bait.  There still some nice trippletail being caught offshore, trippletail are a fun fish to catch both on fly and spinning tackle.  Now for the inshore side the redfish and trout bite has been exceptionally well. The redfish have been ranging from 25-40inches along with the trout ranging 16-25inches with a few here and there pushing over that 25inch mark. Artificial lures and live bait have been the ticket for them.  I like to thank everyone that fished with me and I hope to fish with you again soon!  Here is a short video of the kingfish we caught on one of my trips along with photo's of my clients that fished with me. Enjoy! If your interested in booking a trip with me you can reach me at finandflycharters@gmail.com, www.finandflycharters.com or call (321) 652-5903.

Orlando, Titusville, Cocoa Beach, Cape Canaveral Fishing Report 3/9/12

The redfish bite inshore is still on fire!!! Multiple redfish around 40 inches along with mid to upper slot fish. The trout bite has been also exceptionally well with multiple fish over 20 inches. Along the beaches of Port Canaveral and Cocoa Beach are the cobia, one of my favorite fish to eat and sight fish. The cobia have been ranging from 20-76 pounds which is a good amount of meat off of one fish. Within the next couple weeks we should start seeing pogies show up which are my favorite bait to use.  When the pogies show up the snook bite is on!!! So that's something to look forward to. Here are some photo's of some of my client's from the past week along with another video....Enjoy!  If your interested in booking a trip with me you can reach me at finandflycharters@gmail.com, www.finandflycharters.com or call (321) 652-5903.

Orlando, Titusville, Cocoa Beach, Cape Canaveral Fishing Report 2/26/12

The fishing the last couple weeks has been absolutely insane!!! Last week we came across a monster school of redfish in the ocean, I'm talking a school of a couple thousand fish all ranging from 40-60 pounds.  The cobia were popping up all around the boat with the redfish.  Cobia fishing this March off of Port Canaveral is going to be insane, so make sure you plan a trip to target them. The inshore redfishing is blowing up also with multiple redfish over 40inches being caught with also some mid range slot fish.  The trout bite on a fly rod is still insane, 50-100 fish a day! Here are some photo's of my clients with there fish from the past couple weeks along with a video of the redfish we caught in the ocean.  If your interested in booking a trip you can reach me at finandflycharters@gmail.com, www.finandflycharters.com or call (321) 652-5903.

The Orlando crowd strikes again!!! 1/26/12

This past month the fishing has been awesome here in Cocoa Beach, Titusville, Port Canaveral, and Mosquito Lagoon.  The redfish and sea trout bite has been very good on the flats with this weird winter, if you even call this a winter this year.  I had Joey and Karen from Orlando out on the boat the other day for redfish and trout and they tore up the redfish. Joey caught his biggest redfish coming in at 31inches with Karen's biggest redfish at 28inches.  Joey was also able to land his first trout that he took home to meet the frying pan.  For offshore near Port Canaveral the kingfish, trippletail, and monster black drum has been excellent along with a few cobia being caught here and there.  If your interested in a inshore or offshore trip you can reach me at finandflycharters@gmail.com, http://www.finandflycharters.com/, or call (321) 652-5903.  Fin & Fly Charters also just bought a new boat for the offshore/nearshore area, a 24ft pathfinder with a second helm above to see those cobia.  This boat is perfect for cobia, kingfish, and trippletail trips.

The Indian River Lagoon does it again! 4/13/11

Had Mike, Kathy and Nathan on the bow of the boat today in search of redfish and trout.  We fished the Indian River Lagoon and the bite was on.  Mike and Kathy both caught a nice slot sized redfish with there son Nathan who caught a nice 25inch trout.  In the last ten minutes of our trip Mike made a cast and hooked this nice 45inch red that took him on a hour and forty minute fight.  If your interested in booking a trip you can reach me at finandflycharters@gmail.com, www.finandflycharters.com or call (321) 652-5903.

The Atlantic does it again!!! 4/9/11

Ran two trips today, the first one was with Gene and Dick for snook and redfish at the jetties.  I met Gene and Dick at Sunrise Marina this morning and headed out south to catch are bait for the day.  After we caught our bait we headed straight back to the jetties.  Today was a little crowded on the jetties, but that didn't bother us at all, we had the secret bait...pogies!  We didn't even have our bait in for five minutes when Gene hooked a nice 34inch redfish followed by Dick hooking and landing his first snook.  By the end of our trip Gene had landed four nice over slot redfish and Dick landed two upper slot redfish along with one snook.  My second trip was with Doug and Andria Childs from Apopka.  Doug was referred to me by a good friend of mine Capt. Scott Lum.  Doug and Andria had never caught a cobia before so that's what are main targeted specie was for the day.  I had my other good friend Chesnee mate for me today to help keep and eye out for the cobia.  We headed south and cast netted our bait and kept heading south fishing the bait pods on our way down.  The first fish of the day was a six foot black tip shark, that took Doug for a good run.  two hours went by and still no cobia.  I started heading back north when Chesnee saw something strange out in the distance about a mile away.  It looked like white caps from a boat wake, but there was no boats around us at the time so we started heading towards it when what we thought was a wave from a boat was actually a pod of two hundred tarpon rolling and blasting on pod of minnows.  Everyone was super excited.  We baited all the hooks with live pogies and threw out the lines.  It wasn't long till Doug hooked into about a 100 pounder that took him for an hour fight.  Once we landed Doug's fish I noticed something strange looking trailing behind the tarpon, it was cobia! Doug, Andria and myself casted at them hooking into two of them.  Doug had about a 30 pounder on and Andria had on a 15 pounder.  Doug tired his fish out first but the hook pulled when we were about to gaff it.  Andria fought her's for another ten minutes when I was able to gaff her's into the boat, she was really excited.  We started heading back north to port when we came across another cobia that was stubborn as all get and wouldn't bite.  At the end of our trip Doug and Andria went home with some nice cobia for the dinner table.  If you are interested in booking a trip with me you can reach me at finandflycharters@gmail.com, www.finandflycharters.com or call (321) 652-5903.
