Flamingo - Saltwater Fishing Report
I have been on the water almost everyday fishing down in Flamingo, Everglades National Park. I had a last minute cancellation today and finally getting a chance to let you know what is going on down there. The baby tarpon fishing has been AWESOME! There has been plenty of fish in the 5-30 lb. range from the backcountry and the flats outfront. At times, the bigger tarpon can be picky, but these size tarpon eat. We have caught them on fly and spin tackle.
The redfishing on the flats has improved with a concentration of fish in a small area. As we move into the fall and the water temps slowly cool, the fishing up on the flats should get better.
There has been a lot of bait on the Gulf Coast and when the weather is clam there has also been some bigger tarpon out there. We should get some really great tarpon fishing in the next few weeks from fish in the 50-80 lb. range.
The sight fishing in the backcountry has been surprisingly good. Usually this time of year fishing is better on the coast than the backcountry but that's why I love the Everglades, it always keeps you on your toes.
Fall is right around the corner and the fishing will only get better. I have plenty of openings over the next few weeks, so give me a call or email to get out on the water.
Tight Lines,
