Key West Fishing Report 8 4 2021

Key West fishing report from Saltwater Angler says with the winds down to near nothing, Bone fishing has been on FIRE! Getting out early on the incoming tide should bring you many shots at the Grey Ghost! Juvenile Tarpon in the 15-40lb. are also a good option next to many of the deeper mangrove nurseries. Hotter weather has made getting out early or later in the afternoon the best option. With low winds and hot midday, many flats species will head for deeper water until it cools in the evening. Count on few spotted showers all most every afternoon as well and light winds the next week.

Key West Fishing Report for October 22, 2019

It’s May here in the Florida Keys and Tarpon here. Its the time of year we all look forward to. Early morning is the best time to try and find Tarpon rolling at first light. Darker fly patterns are the way to go in the early morning (black and purples) with lighter colors working better in the afternoon. Along with Bonefish, the Permit are starting to find their way back onto the flats so keep and eye out for schools of shadows pushing water across sand and mottled bottom. Cudas will be laid up in the current on flats trying to find an easy meal, giving angler a great opportunity to try and catch one. Best caught using something flashy and moving fast with a bait-fish profile.
