Everglades Fishing Report

I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. The fishing has remained pretty solid over the last month or so. The bigger tarpon are around out on the Gulf coast and have been pretty active. This should be the pattern until the cold fronts start showing up around November.

The snook fishing in the backcountry has been excellent. Lots of fish around of all sizes. I have taken my Jon boat as far back as we can go and there has been lots of action of snook, redfish, and baby tarpon.

I have plenty of dates open over the next few weeks and into the Fall. Fishing has been great, so give me a call or email and lets fish!

Fall in the Everglades

We are definitely in our Fall pattern down here in the Everglades. There is a ton of bait along the Gulf coast. There has been some big tarpon showing up chasing the schools of mullet and when we find them, they have been eating flies and plugs. The snook and redfishing has also been excellent. Plenty of fish from the Gulf coast to the way backcountry. I think the best fishing over the past few weeks has been the baby Tarpon. They are Everywhere!!! That is a great sign for things to come.

Give me a call or email to get out and experince the Fall fishing in the Everglades!

Looking like Fall in The Everglades

Hope everybody is doing well. The fishing in the Glades has been very good. There has been a ton of tarpon around in the mornings and most days we have had them all to ourselves. These fish are in the 30-60lb range.

The redfishing, snook, and baby tarpon fishing has been on fire on the lower stages of the tides. We have been sightfishing these guys and they have been a ton of fun. This is definitely the time of year for a slam!

As we move into the Fall, the fishing should only get better with the push of bait down the Gulf Coast. Give me a call or email to get out on the water! Best part about this time of year is we rarely see another boat all day!

Some great Summer time action!

This time of year is definitely a favorite for me. I call this the second tarpon season of the year. There are plenty of fish around and most days you have the entire place to yourself. I think the last few trips we haven’t seen a boat all day.

The tarpon fishing has been very good with fish in the 30-60 lb range. We have taken advantage of the calm mornings that we have had. Getting out early is always important this time of year as the tarpon are extremely active in the morning.

The baby tarpon, snook, and redfish have also been very good this summer. This is a great time for an Everglades slam (Tarpon, Redfish, and Snook) which sometimes can be done at the same spot.

I just got back from a week of fly fishing for trout on the Green River in Utah with some great friends. The fishing was incredible and the River was beautiful. Looking forward to doing that again soon!

Alot of craziness going on in the world at the moment. Everything is closing down including a lot of the ramps in South Florida. Flamingo has been closed down for a few weeks now, so the only access into Everglades National Park is through Everglades City and Chokoloskee. The good thing is the park waters remain open. I will be fishing out of EC or Chokoloskee until Flamingo opens back up. I have had most of my trips in April cancelled due to travel restrictions and closures. If you are local and want to get out for a day on the water in complete isolation, give me a call or email. Here is what has been going in the Everglades the last few weeks-

It has been a great month of fishing in the Everglades. Plenty of bigger tarpon still hanging around with the warmer weather and loads of bait all over the Everglades. With our first cold front of the year approaching, the bigger tarpon will move in and out of the Everglades on the water temperature. When everything lines up, it can be some incredible tarpon fishing.

The snook fishing continues to be great and we have found some bigger fish on the Gulf coast and inside the backcountry. The same goes for the redfish, finding them both on the Gulf coast and inside. There are plenty of little ones roaming all over the Everglades, which is great to see.

My tarpon season is filling up, so send me an email or give me a call!

Tarpon fishing in the Everglades

Peter Celnicker — Wed, 16 Oct 2019 12:15:30 +0000

The fishing down in the Everglades has been very good lately. The tarpon have been extremely thick with the bait almost everywhere. We have found creek mouths with bait pouring out of them and tarpon doing backflips on the bait. It has been pretty cool to see it. Those fish have not been easy to hook but we have managed a few bites while watching the display of the tarpon doing their thing.

The sight fishing has also been really good lately for redfish and snook. A bunch of fish outfront on the flats and also on the Gulf coast.

The overall fishing has been very good in the Everglades and should continue throughout the Fall.

Give me a call or email

Everglades Fall Fishing

The fishing continues to be very good out of Flamingo There has been a big push of bait through the Everglades which has brought a lot of fish south chasing them. The tarpon have been around hanging in the creeks and rivers ambushing bait as it flows in and out on the tides. These fish have been in the 30lb-70lb class. A great fish on the fly or light tackle!

The snook fishing remains very good. They have been everywhere from the way backcountry to the Gulf Coast. There has also been some redfish mixed in with these schools of snook.

I still have some dates open for the end of the year. This can be some great fishing with some giant tarpon moving in the backcountry on good weather days.

My spring Tarpon Season is filling up so let me know if you want some prime dates this upcoming spring.

Fall Fishing in the Everglades

Next to our Spring season, this is by far the BEST time to fish in the Everglades. This is what I call our second Tarpon season. Nobody on the water, unlike the spring and there are lots of tarpon around that are usually very aggressive. Most of the fish are between 30lbs.-60lbs. In my opinion, that is the best size fish to catch. Once we get a push of bait, then some of the really big tarpon move in. That is usually later this month. Don’t miss out on some incredible fishing this month!

The snook fishing has also been very good. We have caught them literally all over the Everglades, from deep in the backcountry to the Gulf Coast. Recently, the baby tarpon fishing has been incredible. Lots of little guys roaming around the backcountry. Should be a great sign for things to come!

Give me a call and let’s get out on the water.

We had our first real cold front of the season. The weather dipped down tot he 50s and the water temp dipped down to the high 60s. That’s cold by South Florida’s standards. Before the cold front there big tarpon in Whitewater Bay. After the front the tarpon left town but will be back once it warms up again. That will be the pattern for the next few months.

The snook fishing continues to be excellent with lots of fish around and it should only get better as we move into the winter months. This is some of my favorite fishing of the year. Bushwhacking our way back to some remote lakes and pons which can result in some incredible snook fishing.
