Current Fishing Conditions

We are coming up on the new moon in a few days and the tides are very high. The winds are starting to move back to ESE, which is good because the water in some area of the Glades are dirty from the West wind we had for a couple of weeks when Hurricane Joaquin…

Everglades Fishing Guide

We are starting to move into our fall in South Florida. Like I said in my last report, you can feel it in the air. The fronts will start to slowly move through South Florida and bring a good change of pace from the summer heat. This is a great time of year to spend…

Flamingo Fishing Report

You can definitely feel in the air that Fall is right around the corner down in the Everglades. That cool breeze in the morning and the no humidity during the day is a could change of pace. We have a had a west wind over the past week or so and it has really slowed…

West wind

We have had a west wind the last few days with Hurricane Jauqiun sitting just to the east of Florida. With high tide in the morning and that West wind, it kept the water higher than normal. We changed our tactics a little bit and fished around some of the islands outfront. We ended the…

Ft. Lauderdale tarpon fishing

The bait is here and so are the tarpon and snook! Right in the middle of downtown Ft. Lauderdale. These fish are anywhere from 50 lbs to 100lbs. This is an easy trip especially if you are staying somewhere near the water. All you have to do is step on the boat and be ready…

Backcountry Fishing in the Everglades

One of the many reasons I love fishing in the Everglades. These fish are anywhere from 40lbs-100+lbs. When you find them they usually are willing…

Prefishing

I was out yesterday kind of looking around the Everglades to put a plan together for the Herman Lucerne Backcountry Fishing tourney out of Everglades National Park. We ran to a spot in the morning with lots of tarpon and lots of bugs. We ended up hooking a few tarpon up to 50 lbs but…
