Cold Weather Not Affecting Good Bite

[Capt. Patrick Rood]

We have been getting some blast of colder weather here in New Smyrna Beach this past week. The weather has not affected the bite, though. In fact, it has actually helped it! With the shifting winds, the water has lowered a bit, forcing the trout and redfish into small pods throughout the backwaters of the Indian River Lagoon and Halifax River. The same goes for the waters of the Mosquito Lagoon, as well, with small pods of fish finding their way into the pot holes for warmth. They can be taken on both live bait and artificial, but remember that a slow presentation will be key to soliciting a strike while temperatures remain cold.

Captain Patrick Rood is a native Floridian that has grown up on the local waters of Mosquito Lagoon, Daytona Beach and New Smyrna Beach with the passion for inshore fishing. Call (386) 566-1394 to book a trip, or visit Spot N Tail Charters on the web.
