By far the #1 Orlando Fishing destination is the Mosquito Lagoon.

Saltwater fly anglers from around the world travel to experience Mosquito Lagoon & Indian River. Known as the "REDFISH CAPITAL OF THE WORLD" These pristine waters are home to some of the best Redfish flats you can find anywhere in the country. Located within the boundaries of Canaveral National Seashore and Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, these waterways boast awesome fishing for Redfish, Sea Trout, Black Drum, Snook & Tarpon. In addition to the excellent fishing you can also have the oppotunity to observe over 500 species of birds and native wildlife, including several endangered animals that inhabit the Mosquito Lagoon waters.

Mosquito Lagoon is home to the largest concentration of Redfish. Often these fish will have their backs out of the water, tailing or finning. You can expect to stalk Redfish & Trout in water as shallow as six inches while sightfishing the Lagoon's expansive grass flats. The abundant population of Redfish and their eagerness to take flies has made Mosquito Lagoon Redfish one of the premier Orlando area fishing targets. World class Redfish over 40lb are landed each year on the waters of Mosquito Lagoon and it is not uncommon the see huge schools of "bull" reds numbering in the hundreds through the summer months. Unlike other destinations, the breeder Redfish of Mosquito Lagoon never leave this area and can be targeted year round.

In the spring & summer months the nearshore waters off Port Canaveral offer triple digit Tarpon, Cobia, Tripletail, Spanish Mackerel, Sharks, Dolphin & others. The Port itself is an outstanding nighttime Snook fishery. These “saltwater turbo charged bass on steroids” will challenge even the most seasoned angler.

Orlando is home to some of the largest Bass in the country. This is a premier destination for fly anglers wanting that trophy bass on fly. Along with largemouth bass you can expect a variety of bream, perch, ciclids and other exotics.

Winter time bring the acrobatic American Shad to the upper St. Johns river as they arrive to spawn. The word is out that shad fishing is great sport. These stout battlers don't give up easily, and often put on a flashy aerial battle. Couple their strong fight with a tender mouth, and landing half of the shad you hook can be an accomplishment.
