Key West - Saltwater Fishing Report
The Fishing Report. December 25, 2013.Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Tis the Season for Toothy Critters as evidenced by this 24 pound Barracuda (verified by Boga Grip) caught by Susan Yoder of Pennsylvania on Dec. 23.
We have found alot of these larger Barracuda on the flats as of late.
Winter weather here in the Florida Keys has engineered a cold front on Christmas Eve and the winds were really howling! So much so, that we had 25 knot breezes out of the Northeast for on Dec. 24 afternoon. The good news is that the winds have subsided already and Dec. 26-Jan. 1 looks like very
mild weather and very good fishing conditions here in the Keys.Even when the wind blows 20-25 we can get out for some good fishing. For some anglers, this kind of wind is a no-go situation. However, Miguel from Spain was only here for a few days and wanted to catch a Tarpon very badly! So, we found some Tarpon laid up in a local canal that was protected from the winds.
Here is a baby Tarpon jumped by Miguel.
Jason and Lauren Tucker came to Key West and they were swimming in Tarpon!!!
The husband and wife Tucker Team really had a great day on the Tarpon Flats!
What are you waiting for? Come visit Capt. Dexter Simmons and swim with the Tarpon while staying alive!!!
Call Capt. Dexter Simmons at 305-745-3304 for more information.
In the meantime, there will be Permit Tailing and Tarpon Rolling on the flats and in the channels and basins.
Here is a nice Permit...
And a nice Bonefish...
