Key West - Saltwater Fishing Report

Bonefish Bounty!

Tropical season has arrived and the Bonefish are everywhere! Falling and Rising tides, especially during full and new moons, get the fish moving out of the channels and across the flats. We are finding big Bones at sunrise and sunset in the backcountry tailing on the flats in skinny water. There are also schooling Bones on the deeper water tides cruising across the sandy shoals. Permit are also showing in good numbers on the edges of the flats and channels. And to complete that elusive "Grand Slam", the baby Tarpon are available around the Mangrove Creeks.

Before you travel to the Keys for some great fall Bonefish and Permit action, call Capt. Dexter Simmons for a live report 305-745-3304. Tight Lines and Screaming Reels!
