The cooler water temperatures have started bringing the wolf of the flats (Cuda’s) into play. More will begin to move into the shallows. The drop in water temp brings an abundance of bait into the shallows, so predator fish like Cudas and Black Tip sharks will be on the hunt.

 These fish are a great fight on fly as most who live here look forward to this time of year. 

Bonefish have still been very thick, but finicky with the cooler water, and many Captains have reported large numbers to the west of Key West. 

Permit fishing has slowed down some. Reports have been sporadic lately. Some Captains have had more success than others, but that’s permit fishing for you. Water temperatures should be in mid to lower 70’s. 

Wishing everyone a fantastic Holiday Season!
