Well fellow anglers, the Islamorada flats were surrounded by beautiful blue water brought in by a pervasive east wind , but I managed to put my anglers on a few fish ( snappers, jacks, shark) and we did manage to hook a bonefish briefly before it broke us off on a coral head. These fish were hiding in deeper water (about 10 feet) to keep warm.
Permit fishing was on as well on the patch reefs and sailfishing has been good too, if you could handle the waves...There was a big tournament at Hawk's Cay this weekend and hopefully many fish were caught and released.
We are in the transition period where the big bait push will be followed but the Tarpon and other predatory fish. Shark fishing has been decent but will get better too when the water warms up a bit more. The reports I heard were that the western part of Florida Bay were better for fishing than the eastern part in the past week. Snook and Redfish and Trout were the catch of the day in the western area's of the Everglades.
It can only get better from here on in!!
Tight lines!!
