Fish Orlando for Christmas now that our winter season is in full affect, the cold fronts that are making their way down from the north have finally dropped the water temperatures low enough to kill the algae and bacteria in the water. What this means is that our water has finally cleared up for incredible sight casting opportunities. Just the other day with the water temperature at 53 degrees I noticed a 50% difference just in water Clarity alone. That was the first time and many months that I had a chance to sight cast for redfish. Along with the colder water clearing up the water the bite has also turned on and made the fish a little bit giddy. I’m catching fish in very shallow water on live mullet and live shrimp. The redfish have been between 24 and 30 in on average with an occasional 40in in the mix. The sea trout have ranged from 12 to 15 in on up to as largest 30 in. There are reports of large black drum out on the flats as well I personally have not targeted them but I know other guys that are catching them on a regular basis so if you’re interested in catching a big black drum we can do that as well.
