Fishing Report: Mosquito Lagoon Redfish Report
We are still catching big bull reds in Mosquito Lagoon. These brutes are ranging from 15-40 pounds. Catching one of these fish on light tackle gives new meaning to the word “tug of war” and the fight often lasts for several minutes, if not more. We are sight casting both live shrimp and cut mullet to these big fish, and soon pigfish will be available- favorite of bull redfish.
A few skilled and lucky fly anglers are also cashing in on big bull redfish catches. An angler\\\'s ability to cast great distances has been the deciding factor on fly this past month.

As the summer heat approaches, early starts will be rewarded with tailing fish on the flats. Redfish and trout will be feeding heavily the first hour of the morning. Soft plastic jerkbaits and topwater plugs will be the lures of choice.
As a reminder, the water is beginning to warm significantly and extra time is needed to revive caught fish. That ultra-light spin outfit or 6-weight fly rod you were using during the winter is not such a good idea this time of year. Warm water means less oxygen saturation and fish can become very exhausted in a long fight. Use heavier gear to get the fish in quickly and give it the best chance at post-release survival.
