Capt. Chris Myers has nearly 20 years guiding light tackle and fly fishing trips on the saltwater flats and backcountry waters of the Mosquito Lagoon and Indian River.  One hour from Orlando & Disney, between Cocoa Beach and Daytona Beach.  Sight fish for redfish, trout, and drum all year round. All licenses and tackle and provided. Great fishing all months of the year.

Sight fishing trips are for the anglers who want to experience the excitement of casting to big fish you can see in shallow water. Capt. Chris will push the boat across the flats and point out targets for the angler(s) on the bow. Catching success for this type of fishing is usually directly related to casting skill.

If weather conditions do not allow for sight fishing or for those with limited casting skills. we catch fish either blind casting lures or by fishing with bait while at anchor. Redfish and seatrout are the most common species and can be caught with equal success all year long.

Fly fishing trips for redfish, trout, and tarpon are offered as well. Capt. Chris is a IFFF certified fly casting instructor. Top quality fly fishing equipment from Sage and Hardy is provided or you can bring your own. Anglers should have at least basic casting skills as our fish usually require quick accurate casts of 30-60ft with a 7wt rod.

For fishing with kids, people with little or no experience, or during high wind conditions, we can fish the extreme backcountry of northern Mosquito Lagoon fishing the protected cuts and channels. using small shrimp as bait, action is steady and consistent and yields a wide variety of species from redfish and trout to sharks, jacks, bluefish, and snapper.

In addition to the fishing, you can see a wide variety of wildlife as well from manatee and dolphins to turtles, stingrays and birds. See these animals closeup in their natural environment.

All trips are catch and release only.
