Redfish Guides on the Indian River Lagoon

Indian River Redfish Guided FishingThe Indian River seems to produce redfish inspite of the weather and fishing conditions some days if you have a good fishing guide and some determination and patience. Demetrius Dumaskas and friends spent a half day (starting at 1:00 pm) with Indian River Fishing Guide Captain's Don Patterson & Richard Bradley on a drizzly January day in the Indian River. "It was cold, it was rainy, it was windy.... but these Indian River Charter Captains put us on the fish!" explained Jeff while displaying his hefty redfish for the camera.

It's all in the attitude explains Captain Richard. "These guys went fishing when everyone else was coming back to the ramp skunked and defeated. They brought no raingear and barely any warm clothes. But their friendship and determination made the difference this day."

The two boat charter had a little competition going for both ladyfish and redfish. Capt. Don's boat took the lead. While the biggest fish goes to Jeff on Captain Richard's Boat. The tally at the end of this miserably fun day of fishing was quality vrs quantity with both Captains sharing the prize.

End score on this rainy afternoon.

"We wanted to go fishing no matter what and when other anglers were leaving the ramp waiting for another day, our guides took us fishing and showed us how to catch redfish in the Indian River during bad conditions."

Indian River Lagoon Fishing Report

September 2010 Indian River Fishing Update

September is and exceptional time to go fishing in the Indian River Lagoon in east Central Florida. Snook are in the inlets and finished with their spawn and they're legal to keep as of September 1st. Look for night time snook fishing action in the inlet and when the fall mullet run starts to happen in the later part of the month, snook will be in the flats along the mangrove shorelines and around structure. The northern Indian River has been having large herds of black drum from time-to-time and on days the schools of redfish seem to be plentiful early in the morning before the crowds get on them. September often is VERY hot and bring plenty of sunscreen and some good polarized glasses, you'll need them on the Indian River Lagoon this late summer and early fall.

Hello,
One of my favorite places to fish is the Indian River with it's diverse amount of wildlife and fish species. During the cold winters you'll often find me in the northern part of the Lagoon looking for redfish in the Banana Creek and Scottsmore area but when the fall sets in lower parts of the Lagoon near Sebastian gets hot for snook and big trout. Look me up for a great day of fishing on the Indian River Lagoon for big redfish in the late summer and fall and awesome sightfishing during the cooler parts of the year.

God Bless,

Captain Richard Bradley
