As we have passed the first day of spring for 2021, the season is falling into place and the fishing and weather patterns are really awesome this time of year. No more cold days and soon our favorite warm water species like Tarpon will be back in the area and giving us opportunities.
Cobia fishing off the Daytona Beach and Mosquito Lagoon coast has been late to arrive this year but we are getting some fish and having fun doing it. Our bull redfish are feeding well and their spring and early summer patterns are shaping up just as planned. We have caught some spectacular fish this past week including one fish that was almost 50lbs. Black drum fishing is winding down but we are still getting a few really nice fish here at the end of the season. It’s only a matter of time before the tarpon show up, and with the bull redfish already doing their thing, now is a great time to fish central Florida! Capt. Billy Rotne Ponce Inlet Fishing Charters

Weather seemingly can’t get much better than it’s been this past week in the Ponce Inlet and New Smyrna Beach area. Spring is definitely arriving and the fishing will be getting better and better as it does.
Cobia are late this year with water temperatures still a bit too cold, but it almost certainly can’t be more than a week or so before they arrive. It won’t be long before these fish are swimming along the beaches from Mosquito Lagoon to Daytona Beach. March cobia days are almost all filled with a couple days left but I still have some days left in early April. Big black drum and bull reds have been the focus for the past week with some giant drum up to 60+ pounds being caught. These giant fish will be here for a few more weeks before beginning their migration back north to Pamlico Sound and Chesapeake Bay. Big reds will remain and will only get more active as the next few weeks come. With only a couple weeks to go before spring, things are going great for fishing. We are already experiencing great temperatures and fishing in the Ponce Inlet and New Smyrna Beach areas of central Florida.
Cobia fishing should be happening within a week or two at most, we just need a little calm weather and a slight increase in ocean temperatures off the Mosquito Lagoon through Daytona Beach area. That’s going to happen very soon and when it does, it won’t last long. Cobia fishing is very popular and I only have a few possible dates left open so give me a shout if you’re looking to get out during this opportunity. Big bull redfish and drum have been a steady option for us over the last couple weeks with every trip being successful in landing some very large fish. The fishing for the redfish will only get more active as we enter warmer months. The black drum fishing is nearing its seasonal end as the fish begin migrating north with spring starting. Capt. Billy Rotne Ponce Inlet Fishing Charters It sure feels like spring is here with the great weather we have been having. Mild days with temperatures in the upper 70’s have been the trend lately in the New Smyrna Beach and Ponce Inlet area, making for some really comfortable days on the water.
Cobia are almost here and we should be able to target them later this week and over the rest of March from offshore of Mosquito Lagoon all the way up to Daytona Beach. Now is the time if these fish are what you’re looking for. Big bull redfish and big black drum have been keeping us catching inshore, with every trip over the last few weeks producing some great fish. The fishing for reds will only get better each day as the temperatures continue to get warmer. Capt. Billy Rotne Ponce Inlet Fishing Charters |
