Smooth summertime seas give us the opportunity to run to …

The first week of July was off to a hot start. The first week I was fishing with repeat client Ron and we fished in Biscayne Bay and Everglades National Park.  Ron had never fished the Everglades before and after we did so on day two he wanted to come back every day after that.  Admittedly the fishing was not on fire but we caught fish and Ron had...

The second half of June had some tough conditions that kept me at home and rescheduling trips thanks to 7 days of constant rain we had move across the area.  But I was able to sneak in a few trips and the first one was with Bob armed with a fly rod.  I took Bob to an area out of the wind and we were able to find some schools of bonefish moving t...

This is the 3rd week of June 2024. The rain we had for the last 2 weeks has the Snook bite on fire. This happens every June we get tons of water pushing out to Fl. Bay and the Snook love it. They are also in the backcountry when it is blowing 15-20mph or more it’s a good back up plan. The fish are on the edges and points so you just have to go fis...

There are a few things going on going on that’s sends me into the back country. The first one is the pea green water in Fl. Bay the second is there has been a great bite in Whitewater Bay. and then a S.W. wind. Pea green water out front sometimes turns into no fish. The backcountry has had a solid bite of Snook Trout Goliaths and a few small Tarpo...

Dang if there was a way to start off the month of June this would be it.  It's been hot but that has been a side note in light of the awesome fishing we had so far this week.  I began the week with Amy her son Henry and this friend Daniel out of Key Biscayne.  They were great to fish with and armed with shrimp on jigs they started off hot with Dan...

Another great day of fishing Key Largo! The post Key Largo Fishing – May first appeared on Ankle Deep Adventures.

What a way to end the month but it was not all good news at first.  My Saturday charter was with regular local client Barry and we were fishing out of Key Biscayne on Memorial Day weekend.  Not good.  But he was there for a few nights and couldn't drive south so the plan was to meet him there and well that's when things went sideways.  With HUGE a...

I’ve been fishing the Key Largo area the last few weeks targeting Mahi and Yellowtails along with fishing some really cool reefs in 15-25ft. The common way of catching Yellowtails is to chum in 50 to 90 ft. It’s very productive for the Yellowtails but there’s plenty of by catch to keep busy. I fished with my nephew Andrew on the holiday after catc...

What's up everyone?  It's been a busy month so far so here is a catch up report of what's been going on in Miami/Biscayne Bay.  The first week of May started the way the April ended on fire!  Joel and Paul were with me for the last day of our trip and we got into some super shallow super calm big tailing bonefish action that had us going 3 for 4 o...

April was nothing short of a spectacular springtime fishing season here in Fort Lauderdale. The month was marked by a flurry of incredible catches including sailfish large trophy game sharks blackfin tuna and mahi-mahi. We even snagged a handful of nice-sized wahoos over the last 30 days. In summary April was fantastic and we’re optimistic […] The...
