I've always wanted to go over there and fish. And now I'm gonna load my yak and get over there..... thanks to you. Great video. You should come on up to yankeetown and do some fishing up here. Snook have been on a feeding frenzy...lol. Again great video. Tight lines !!!

Mosquito Lagoon with my favorite place to fish back in the sixties up to the 80s grew up there as a kid monster tarpon fishing and some real big drum redfish had a blast there big Gator tryouts
Hey Ron, met you yesterday. Really like the vids, especially the drone footage. Yep, like I said, I grew up fishing in E. Central Florida. Let's communicate.
Always enjoy your videos Ron. I am going to the same area tomorrow. I kayak fish mosquito lagoon frequently and always have a great time and almost always catch my limit on Red and Trout. Let me know if you ever want to join me there and I can take you to a few good spots.
another fun video... you've heard of the inshore slam.. i call that the trash fish slam, Jack, Blue and Lady.. but hey, catching is better than not catching...
Thanks for the awesome tip! I'm still trying to hunt down that specific location on google maps. Do you have an address or can you shoot me a pointer via email (see the about page of the channel)?
@@KayakFishingAddict just got off the water. A small snook, lost a larger snook and then in was plagued with catfish and sea Robin's. I'll have to give it another try, wish I had gotten more live shrimp too.
Great fishing. And I love how organized you are. I'm the same way. Everything on my Yak, has its place. Deck always clear, PDL drive clear. I see so many anglers, catch a nice fish, and there boat has gear everywhere. It's bad for the poor fish, sitting out of his element. Love the channel. Be safe bro.🤟🙏🎣
Thanks Anthony. I’ve been told that sometimes I’m a little OCD… I like to have things in their place. It’s also safer to have a clear deck when I decide to stand.
Dropped off on the yaks with a buddy of mine at this location this past Saturday. We tried a few spots before finding a perfect sandbar during low tide where we were able to walk out about waist deep , and put the kayaks up on the high ground. We got HIT AFTER HIT at this place. Plenty of spots to choose from👌🏼. Great video, new sub👍🏼.
I fish that same area and farther down by oak hill by kayak a lot, FYI if you are looking yo target the redfish the areas famous for you gotta get back into those shallow wind protected coves and oyster flats in inches of water and stand up/sight fish, I have seen reds there tail in as shallow as 4” of water. Nice video
Thanks for the tips Tyler! That was my first time in this area, but it sounds like it works similar to my home marsh. I'll do another trip there and push back further. Typically on my first trip I try to get the lay of the land so to speak.
Almost, but not really. The short is that I use a remote control that's on my wrist that is sync'd to the front and back cameras. I film at 2.7K and tend to film in 10 minute segments. So, are they constantly filming, yes. But not continuously. The reason? If I don't want to use the last 10 minutes of footage, I stop the cameras, and then restart the recording. If I do want to use that footage (e.g. I caught a fish) then I "mark" that footage, stop the cameras, then restart the recording. The ~10 minute segments keeps the file sizes smaller, allows me to bulk throw out footage, and thus helps to optimize post production time. I power them with a nocqua battery that also powers my fish finder. My whole camera setup is covered in this video - th-cam.com/video/iNvnp5uNOeE/w-d-xo.html
Hi Winshima....nice, I'm glad you're enjoying them and even happier that you're considering taking up the sport. How can I help? Ping me if you've got any questions.
BTW..LOL.Thanks for the Garmin FF install. I don't have a Hobie. But do have a 11.7 PDL Sit on top. I ended up using 2 Cabela's 12V batteries for my FF and USB charging panel I installed. I keep the batteries together, but my 2nd is just a fully charged backup. I always like to know I have what I need. Thanks again..
@@KayakFishingAddict Getting there, but they are an investment. So I did so much research. Love the kayak, stable, can stand, plenty of deck space. Glad I picked a PDL drive. I was confused, because it's a hybird. So it takes a PDL, FIN, or fitted trolling motor. But love the PDL so far. Thanks for the learning you pass down. Be safe god bless. 🎣🙏
I was out in the mangroves in that same spot today, but all I could land was a catfish 👎🏻 That wrecked sailboat you saw has since been sunk….and I was slamming the mangrove snapper right there all day long!
Now that's an interesting question... I saw plenty of jet skis but I didn't see anyone fishing on them. A lot of that marsh is fairly deep so I imagine you could...what water depth would you need?
I think 3 o 4 feet ,3 days ago I went to river breeze park and someone told me that I could not fish inside a mosquito lagoon with jet ski, just by the river and watching your video in that park it says jet ski is allowed, that's why I ask you that question has fished in that area, thank you very much for answering me and keep making your videos that are very interesting 👍👍 and good luck in fishing
@@Gallo-ni8fo Thanks! I wish I knew more about the whole Jet Ski fishing thing...but if you saw it on that sign then maybe go by that....and take a picture of it when you launch in case you get stopped. Tight lines!
I’ve never fished inshore before. I’m a largemouth bass fisher from the Orlando area. I’ve always wanted to make a trip over there. What is your tackle setup if you don’t mind me asking? Love the video and kayak setup!
Hi Michael. My tackle setup is pretty basic. I only fish artificial baits. I throw braid (~20 lbs) with a mono/flouro leader of about 3'. I then tie on my bait with typically a loop knot. You'll get a perfect picture of this from this video on knots - th-cam.com/video/fjUZSI7f6Oo/w-d-xo.html
Awesome footage brother! Def gonna sub to check out more! Where did you launch from and head to? I've been fishing from a little raft and want to check out some new spots! This area looked like fun!
Hi Abid. Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the video and have subscribed! I launched from Menard-May Park Kayak Launch (see the description for a link to the exact spot). It was a lot of fun and a great spot to fish. I hope you catch some. Tight lines!
@@KayakFishingAddict repaired and cracked again. Thats why I got rid of it. It was the older 2007 Outback though. I believe hobie addressed the issues in the later models.
Great video. I see this is a few years back but I bet you're covering up more these days. Especially this year I'm wearing long pants and long sleeve sun blocking shirts. Need to block that sun as much as possible.
Great point... i don't typically fish in the morning like I did on this day. When the water is calm like that in the morning a top water plug would have been a good selection. I guess I was still sleeping. Thanks for watching and subscribing Richard!

You got that right!
Next time, head to the NSB side of Canaveral National Seashore and launch from parking lot 5. Go a little south from there after launching.

@@904reelman5 what was the water quality like down there? I don’t usually catch those species with artificial bait.
@@KayakFishingAddict pretty dirty but I did get to fish a lowtide switch. Both the snook were on live shrimp and the sea Robin on a vudu shrimp
@@904reelman5 Yeah the water unfortunately gets dirty after it rains.
