Spent yesterday fishing the backcountry out of Flamingo with Matt from California. We were fly fishing all day and the wind was 20 mph out of the north. We stayed tucked up in backcountry all day and landed 6 snook and 3 baby tarpon. You can always find a place to hide in the Everglades…
I have been down in the Everglades almost everyday except for last night. The fishing down in the Glades has been pretty good even with the tough weather conditions we have been getting. The baby tarpon still are all over the place and they are keyed in on small baits, so fly fishing has been…
I don’t get offshore as much as I would like to, but has the opportunity to do so yesterday. Ran out to about 900ft and trolled around looking for weed patches. Every patch we hit, we pulled a dolphin off of it. We ended the day with our limit and the biggest was in the…
I spent the last 4 days fishing out of Flamingo and one day out of Biscayne Bay. We had some really good bonefish action in Biscayne Bay on Friday afternoon. There were a lot of fish moving around on the Oceanside flats. The water and tides are still high down in Flamingo. The good thing…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
Like I said I my last post, the 2nd tarpon season is in full swing. This is definitely one of the reason I love the Everglades so much. We have the opportunity to fish for tarpon almost all Spring, Summer, and some of the Fall. If the weather is warm enough, we can even fish…
