Florida Keys & Florida Bay 10/07/02

This week the fishing from Islamorda to Key Largo was good. We had great visibility and moderate winds which both make for good Bonefish and Permit fishing. Due to the mullet run there have also been some groups of Tarpon cruising down the oceanside.


As for fishing in the backcountry in the Everglades, lots of tarpon big and small.
The Redfish fishing was OK this week, but not excellent. Snook fishing was slow, but there were lots of sharks in the area, willing to eat flies and bait. Two of the sharks we caught this week were a seven foot (approx.200lbs.) lemon shark on fly and a huge nine foot (approx.300lbs) lemon shark on bait caught by "Big Ross" from Davie, Florida.
