January continues the traditional pattern of a cold front just about every 7 days or so. The water ranges from high 50’s, which I haven’t seen yet this season, to about 73 or so, with the water temp hanging around the mid to upper 60’s for most of the month. Planning for these cold front… Continue Reading
Port Canaveral, Cape Canaveral, Cocoa Beach, and Orlando A new year, a new approach. This year I’m just bringing the reports simple and raw. I am going to fire out what I think you should be doing each month when fishing out of Port Canaveral and the surrounding area without any fluff. Any wind on… Continue Reading

December begins the month of holiday cheer with Christmas rapidly approaching!The first week of December has given us just about a full week of breathless wind and between 66-69 degree water temps. Inshore and near shore, the visibility has been top to bottom, clear as glass, and slick calm conditions. These are the perfect recipes… Continue Reading
Weather is the driving force for December fishing Although we have not yet seen any substantial “cold” weather, our bay water temps have finally dropped into the 60’s and our Winter patterns are beginning to show face. In most areas, bait has moved off the shallow flats and has found refuge on the deeper range… Continue Reading
Port Canaveral, Cape Canaveral, Cocoa Beach, and Orlando Last Month’s ActionInevitably the North wind had to make its way here and our extended summer had to give way to Winter. Almost all of November was spent nearshore hiding from rough sea conditions. The fishing nearshore was fantastic. Pompano, jack crevalle and lady fish made for… Continue Reading

Port Canaveral, Cape Canaveral, Cocoa Beach, and Orlando Last Month’s ActionPut the banner up for October. As good as I have ever seen it nearshore with sharks, red drum, tarpon, goliath grouper, jack crevalle, snook, triple tail and more. Offshore was unreal with cobia, kings, mahi, and stringer fish off the bottom plus a few… Continue Reading
Nature Coast Fishing Report by Jacinda Rose November, 2021 Inshore fishing on the Nature Coast is really starting to fire up with the cooler weather we’ve been having.
