Excellent spring weather is finally here. Next week will have variable winds, depending on the day, and a chance of showers later in the week. Feels like spring already. Moderate winds and mid 70’s for the next 10 or so!

The weather seems to have finally made a change toward normalcy with mid to high 70’s most of the next 2 weeks. The winds will still be averaging 16-22 mph with a few days having stronger gusts, but that is good for this time of year. 

Captains have been reporting small groups Tarpon starting to migrate through the lower keys. Bone fish have been a pleasant surprise with many fish being caught as the water temps rise. Look to find most Bones active on a tide change later in the day when the suns had a chance to warm the shallows up. 

Permit have still been quite slow this time of year. There have been some permit around, but as always they can be picky and elusive. 

The large Cudas are still very busy on the flats even with the warming water. These guys are a great challenge on fly or light spin gear. Remember to get the fly moving fast to get their attention. 

Here at Saltwater Angler, we wish everyone tight lines and fish boatside!
