Fishing Guide

Professional light tackle or fly fishing charters near Orlando on the inshore salt
waters of the Mosquito Lagoon and the Indian River Lagoon in Central Florida.
Florida flats fishing and backcountry fishing trips.

Located one hour from Orlando and Walt Disney World along the east central
coast of Florida between Cocoa Beach and Daytona Beach, the Mosquito
Lagoon is the last piece of undeveloped fishing water in the area.  While the
name Mosquito Lagoon sound ominous, the pesky insects it is named after
never bother us on the water.  Flats fishing for redfish, trout, and black drum is
excellent year round. This diverse estuary also offers seasonal fishing
opportunities to catch tarpon, snook, jack crevalle, pompano, ladyfish, grouper,
snapper, and more.

Mosquito Lagoon and the Indian River Lagoon are the only places in the world
where redfish, also known as red drum or channel bass, live their entire lives
inshore. Here, in central Florida, we have the opportunity to catch trophy sized
Mosquito Lagoon redfish twelve months a year. If you are visiting the Orlando
or east central Florida area and are looking for a saltwater inshore fishing
guide, call me today to reserve a date for a fishing charter.

As your Mosquito Lagoon Fishing Guide I will put you in the best position to
cast your fly or lure to a tailing redfish or trophy sized seatrout. For those
looking for the ultimate flats fishing charter experience, the shallow clear
waters of the Mosquito Lagoon and Indian River allow you to cast to fish you
can see. This is sight fishing at its finest.  Watching the fish chase down and
engulf your lure adds to the excitement of the catch.

My guided backcountry flats fishing charters are conducted from a clean and
well maintained Hewes flats skiff. You will be provided with top quality spinning
and fly fishing tackle as well as all lures and live baits. The cost of the fishing
charter also includes all licenses. I am a licensed US Coast Guard Captain and
hold a permit required to guide in the waters of Mosquito Lagoon inside the
Canaveral National Seashore & Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge.
The flats of the Mosquito Lagoon and the Indian River Lagoon system offer
you the chance to see a diversity of wildlife in addition to the spectacular
fishing. During your trip, you may see a variety of land and sea creatures
including bottlenose dolphin, manatee, and alligators. In addition, Mosquito
Lagoon is home to  an assortment of birds ranging from bald eagles and
osprey to pelicans, ibis, spoonbills,  egrets, herons, storks,  more.  My
Mosquito Lagoon Wildlife Photography page has photos of some of the
animals you may encounter.

For those who are new to flats fishing near Orlando or want to learn to fish the
waters around Titusville, New Smyrna Beach, Daytona Beach,Cocoa Beach,
or Melbourne, I also offer personal fishing instruction. Classes will be  
designed to fit the needs of the angler. Tackle and bait selection, spin and fly
casting, knot tying, presentation, selecting productive waters, and fighting fish
are a small sample of topics I cover. Sharing my experience of fishing Mosquito
Lagoon for twenty years and being a full time fishing guide and charter captain
will help you become a better angler and catch more fish.
