We want to be your prime resource for free Florida fishing information. If you don’t see it here, please feel free to ask for it! This page is UCF (under construction forever).

Something to keep in mind before you read any of the articles below is that most of Florida, and the east coast lagoons in particular, is having water quality problems. Some are severe. Algae blooms, seagrass loss, red tide, and other issues are reducing the productivity of Florida waters and making fishing a shadow of what is was only a decade ago. It’s sad, but that’s the reality.

A specific example of this is the Banana River Lagoon no motor zone. I hardly bother going there any more because it’s been ruined by algae blooms. If you read one of the articles about the Banana River Lagoon that is listed below, you’re basically reading a history piece. It ain’t like that no mo’!

“Capt, I wanted to tell how good I thought your wonderful article on fishing the NMZ was. I was lucky enough to find it a few days ago and with Google Earth was able to locate most of the spots you mentioned. I thought you went into GREAT detail about what to look for and what do to. It really is a great work. It was wonderful that you would share the information with the others.”  -Jim Harvey
