Hard Core Sight Fishing on Indian River Lagoon with Frank Catino

Our destination is the Indian River Lagoon near the Kennedy Space Center on the Central Florida coast with Captain Frank Catino who gives us the low down on the Indian River, the Banana River, and Mosquito Lagoon. 

Stretching over 150 miles, anglers can lose themselves in a sea of mangrove shorelines, shallow grass flats, and numerous islands where great numbers of tarpon, redfish, snook, and speckled trout thrive.  

Having fished these waters for 45 years, Frank shares stories of fishing with Lefty Kreh, Yvonne Chenard, and  Roger Waters, how he came to build reels for Orvis and serve as mayor of his town.  We cover the seasons, tarpon and redfish behavior, and stick around to the end for some great tips on surf fishing.
