Fishing Charters in Ponce Inlet, Florida - The Latest Report

The winter season of fishing is upon us. Some species are more active and some species are less active, the typical setup for any fishing season. Snook and tarpon have migrated away or are seeking thermal basins to stay safe and warmer through the winter while other species like black drum, redfish and sea trout are active all through winter.  During this cooler period of the year, we tend to fish more in the back country areas adjacent to the inlet to find the most active fish. 


One of those areas lies just to the south of the inlet called Mosquito Lagoon. We fish this area during the summer as well but it really shines during the winter months with crystal clear shallow water and active fish. This provides us some great fishing even on the days we are dealing with windy and wintry weather. On the calmer and more sunny days, we focus on sight fishing which is one of the most fun ways to catch fish. It requires spotting the fish in the water, making an accurate cast, and showing the fish the fly, lure or bait without spooking it. It can be quite addictive once the technique is mastered!



Many people escape the winter weather of the northern parts of the country by spending time in Florida. Don’t miss out on the year round quality fishing we have in this area while you’re here!
