Florida Keys Tarpon Fishing Report 2022
2022 Is shaping up to be a great year for Tarpon Fishing in the Florida Keys! Stay tuned for all of our Florida Keys Tarpon Fishing Reports this season!
Florida Keys Fishing Report April 2020
Late March winds here in Islamorada subsided just as this unfortunate and grave situation swept across the planet. As the Florida Keys began to transition into a shelter in place and the trips were cancelled by the thousands.
Tarpon continued to slide into the shallow waters of Florida bay with minimal pressure. Prime conditions have been lining up for the last few weeks with light winds and 80 plus water temps.
Plenty of big Tarpon exercised by the locals, guides and few lucky guests stuck here in paradise.
We saw excellent numbers of fish moving in early and more showing up every day on the ocean.
Typically spawning late March into April the Permit are showing back up hungry on the flats now with several caught on fly this past week!
Bonefish in small to med range seem to be what the consensus is across the upper and lower keys these days, with improving numbers of schooling small fish sighted. Late March and early April provided some exciting Bonefish flurries of mudding tailers, and big schools showing up on the breezy days.
As one can imagine the backcountry of Florida Bay and Everglades national park has been rested with minimal pressure now for 6 weeks, and is absolutely on fire!
Redfish, Snook and trout fishing on the grass flats, channel edges and mangroves has been producing healthy numbers of quality fish consistently.
Recent rain and some windy weather the past week gives hope for more moisture, as we are facing ultra dry conditions in south Florida.
Approaching what appears to be an opening of sorts here in Florida, we are looking at some of the most incredible fishing I’ve personally seen. Appears lack of pressure and a break from traffic in general finds the fish in a better mood.
Be safe out there, book a trip when you can.

Florida Keys Fishing Report March 2020.
Late February and early March have brought a slight change to the weather patterns in Southern Florida. Cold fronts have brought on cooler temps and windy conditions in the Florida Keys, making it a little tougher on anglers and captains alike.
Successful fishing on the flats both in the Everglades National Park and around Islamorada/Tavernier/Key Largo for Redfish, Snook, Tarpon, Permit and Bonefish was still possible using traditional crab and shrimp imitations.
Look for conditions to improve over the next few weeks and for fishing conditions in the Florida Keys to greatly improve. Before you know it, the great Tarpon migration will be upon us!
Florida Keys Fishing Report for February 2020.
February rounded out nicely with a stretch of calm wind and warmer temperatures. We were able to get out in the Everglades and the Florida Keys to fish for Tarpon, Bonefish, Permit, Snook and Redfish (we also caught Jacks, Speckled Trout and Barracuda as well).
If you live locally, or within a reasonable driving distance to the Florida Keys, the winter can provide excellent sight fishing opportunities. You’ll definitely want to stay in touch with us through our weekly and monthly Florida Keys Fishing reports for last-minute fishing opportunities.
