Key West - Saltwater Fishing Report
The Fishing Report.
September 11, 2015.Fishing in the Keys during September is late Summer flats fishing at its best. There are Bonefish,
Permit and resident Tarpon, Shark, Barracuda, and Jacks. We usually start early, sometime between 7 am and 8 am to take advantage of the cooled off early morning waters. Here are some recent catches! This past Tarpon Season was a gas! Some really great moments!! Up close and personal with MR. SILVER KING!The GREEN FLASH OF SUNRISE brought us great luck this past Tarpon Season...Here was a nice one...The past few weeks have seen a strong migration of Tarpon rolling into the Flats for the Palalo Worm hatch. Permit were also Marching everywhere! The light and variable winds winds were prevailing and the water temps increased to the mid 80's. We were hooking big Tarpon daily. Here is a another nice one during a worm hatch!
Sight casting to Tarpon on the basin flats in May and June is outstanding! Here is another Tarpon caught in this environment...Resident baby Tarpon have also been on the line... Permit are here and there if you get that lucky!!!We have just returned from our annual trek to Turneffe Flats, Belize and I am happy to report that we had great weather and an outstanding week of flats fishing!
