The past and coming few weeks have had some excellent fishing in the New Smyrna Beach and Daytona Beach areas, it just doesn’t get much better. Big redfish, snook, tarpon and jack crevalle have all been giving us great days on the water.
Around Ponce Inlet and New Smyrna Beach, the inshore fishing has been a lot of fun. Big reds and snook have been really active and providing some of the best opportunities of the year for these species. Jacks have also been active in large groups destroying schools of mullet. Bother nearshore around the inlet and inshore, tarpon have been active as well. They should remain in the area for a few more weeks until we start to have consistent cold fronts. In the mean time, the bite can be excellent as they prepare for their winter migration. This time of year is truly special for fishing so don’t miss out! Capt.

Mid fall fishing is going just as expected with great catches on every trip lately. Lots of action on every type of bait from numerous species and nice low humidity weather to enjoy.
Redfish have been the main attraction around Ponce Inlet and New Smyrna Beach recently with double digit catches on many trips. Medium and large sized fish have been frequenting quite a few areas and they’ve been pretty chewy. Snook action has also been very good with lots of fish moving into their fall patterns. We’ve landed some big ones as large as 35” that are great fun to catch. On the days that are calm enough, if we have the right opportunities we still have chances at tarpon off Daytona Beach as well as New Smyrna Beach. There are some fish present inshore as well and if you catch them on the right feed they make great targets. Capt.

Huge schools of mullet getting blasted by tarpon, snook, jacks and redfish. Large numbers of big fish of multiple species ready to attack whatever is on the end of a rod. It’s a special time of year!
Big bull redfish have been around as usual with a larger push of ocean fish ready to arrive at Ponce Inlet and New Smyrna Beach any time now. The next 4-6 weeks will be some of the best fishing for these fish all year. Tarpon are around but somewhat difficult to target consistently as they are following the mullet and looking for opportunities to strike just about anywhere. At the right times and places though, some of the coming days of fall will offer some serious action for these fish. Snook fishing will also reach its peak soon as the fish provide great opportunities at all hours of the day on the right tides. Jack crevalle are gathering as well to massacre the mullet schools in feeding frenzies from New Smyrna Beach through Daytona Beach that have to be what mullets nightmares are about. These fish fight hard and the eats alone are often worth targeting them! Mosquito Lagoon has been surprisingly clear for the later summer/early fall time frame and the fishing has been good on many days with the right weather. The coming months should be fun for both spin and fly fishing looking to sight fish. Fall fishing is not to be missed, let’s get out there! Capt. Billy Rotne Ponce Inlet Fishing Charters |
