Bonefish

If you like to fish for BIG BONEFISH. Come to South Florida. From Biscayne Bay to Isla Morada the largest bonefish in the world can be found. Come stalk these beautiful flats and cast fly or light tackle at these giants. One of these monster bones will rip line from your reel like never before.

Fishing for Permit:

Considered by many to be the “Holy Grail” of the flats. South Florida offers the fly of light tackle angler the opportunity to pursue the largest permit in the world. Ranging from 8 to 50 pounds permit are quite possibly the most challenging species to target here. Fishing for permit on the flats offers the feel of a true big game hunt. They are an incredibly hard fighting fish with a seemingly endless stamina. Not only will a hooked permit fight you with brute strength, they will also test your ability with their cunningness. They will stop at nothing to dislodge your hook. From wrapping you around coral or sea-fans to grinding your hook into the sea floor, a fight with a permit is one you will never forget and make you thirsty for more.

Fishing for Tarpon:

February through July Tarpon can be found in varies places through out South Florida. During the winter and early spring months, when the weather cooperates. Tarpon can be found in great numbers in Flamingo and Everglades National Park. These fish are generally very eager to please the fly of light tackle angler. These Tarpon can range from juvenile fish of 20 to 40 pounds, to the giants that dreams are made of well over 100 pounds.

From the end of April through the summer is the prime time to fish South Florida’s annual tarpon migration. It is then that thousands of Tarpon are pouring through the gin clear waters of Biscayne Bay and the Florida Keys. This is the ultimate knee-knocking sight-fishing experience. Imagine standing at the ready on the bow of a flats skiff as a school of 20 four to six foot fish slowly lumber towards you. You make the cast, presenting your fly well ahead of the school. As the fish draw near your fly you begin your retrieve. You break a tarpon out of the school, he follows your fly for what seems like a lifetime. With a giant flash of silver he engulfs your fly, you strike what feels like a runaway train. Chaos ensues.

Fishing For Snook and Redfish

Come fish the flats and mangrove shorelines in the unspoiled waters of Everglades
National Park for snook and redfish. Both Sight casting and fishing to structure are the techniques used to catch these prized game fish of South Florida's back country.
