27" brown trout, my largest ever. It was the sub-dominant fish in its pool. After this, I hooked the bigger one, but I couldn't land it.

Im going January 4th, to do some work, but will have some time to play. I would like to take my 5wt a ton of streamers, and maybe my waders. I cant seem to find any decent info on fishing the inter coastals or rivers in the area, I'll be in Daytona Beach. Anyone have any info, tips, suggestions. I know this has nothing to do with trout.
