- Mosquito Lagoon
- Merritt Island refuge waters
Build the first trip
Narrow the map before choosing tackle.
Select one legal launch and one nearby lagoon zone. Avoid running unfamiliar shallow water simply because it appears open.
Choose the water
Shallow lagoon complex with limited tidal exchange. Treat each water type as a separate trip until you understand how they connect.
Match the habitat
Seagrass, spoil islands, flats, canals and refuge shoreline. Pick one or two habitat transitions instead of trying to sample everything.
Protect the return
Confirm the launch, forecast, water level or tide, and a sheltered fallback before leaving the ramp.
