Key West - Saltwater Fishing Report
The Fishing Report. April 3, 2015.Happy Easter Weekend! The bunny has seen his shadow and that means that the Tarpon will be here for the remainder of the Spring in BIG NUMBERS!
The past few weeks have seen a strong migration of local Tarpon rolling into backcountry Basin Flats.
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 nice one!
