One of the most common questions I get asked is about fly fishing setups when fly fishing the Everglades. The Everglades is so vast and the angling opportunities seem endless. There is so much to do on a daily basis and there are days where I have a set plan of attack, and for one reason or another, I see something, and we never even make it to our original first planned spot. I think that is the most intriguing part of guiding and fishing in the Everglades. I believe in guiding, that you must be ready for anything and everything. I have seen days where you have planned on redfishing and see a pod tarpon feeding. Your first instinct, if you are a tarpon junkie like myself, is to fish the tarpon. If you don’t have the rods for it, than it is a lost cause. That’s why if the water temps are over 70, I always have a tarpon stick in the boat, even if I wasn’t planning on tarpon fishing.
So knowing that, I always carry 2 8wts, 1 10wt, and 1 12wt on the skiff when heading out. The 2 8wts are a perfect setup for snook, redfish, and baby tarpon. The 12wt is obviously for tarpon and maybe sharks depending on the time year. The 10wt that I carry has intermediate line on it and I don’t leave home without it. There are many days that you find tarpon in a little deeper water and having a intermediate line will get your fly down to them. If you don’t have that, those tarpon will never see your fly. In the deeper water, (rivers) they roll and go straight to the bottom.
Those are the 4 setups I like the most and that I feel are the most versatile when fly fishing the Everglades.
Next I will talk about leaders and flies….
