Not every fishing trip involves catching fish, today was one of those days. One of my regular clients who lives in New Smyrna Beach called me at 11:30AM and ask if I could take him and 2 of his friends from Wyoming fish. It seem that his motor on his boat would not run over 2000 RPM's and that's not going to get them to Mosquito Lagoon and back. The wind was less that favorable but you learn to deal with it. We fished the Tomoka river thinking we could get out of the wind, Oh foolish me. It was one of those afternoons that the wind blew so hard it just followed the water no matter where you went. We ultimately ended up in the upper reaches of the Tomoka at old ST. RD 40, now that about as far as you can go exceot in a canoe. There lots of birds and other wild life to see, manatees, alligators and otters plus lots of wild flowers. It was just a little bit early for the wild orchards.
