Key West Flats Fishing Report

The summer weather is here. This week the forecast is calling for winds from 2 to 20+ mph. Monday through Sunday are calling for an easterly wind, with a little southeasterly wind in the mix. The forecast is calling for a mix of sun and partly cloudy skies, with possible showers toward the end of the week. The temperature is set to be in the mid 80’s all week.

The winds will be in the 2 to 20+ mph range most of the week. Captains have been reporting groups of Juvenile Tarpon, with some bigger fish mixed in with the right conditions.

Just so you know, the Bonefish have been a pleasant surprise with many fish being caught as the water temps warm up from the spring temperature increase. Look to find most Bones active on a tide change.

Permit have still been slow this time of year. There have been some permit around, but as always they can be picky and elusive. The large Cudas are out on the flats even as the water temperature has started to rise. These guys are a great challenge on fly or light spin gear. Remember to get the fly moving fast to get their attention. They love live bait!

Wishing everyone tight lines and fish boatside!

"All Americans believe that they are born fishermen. For a man to admit a distaste for fishing would be like denouncing mother-love or hating moonlight."
