South Florida Inshore
Florida Sportsman member: lemaymiami
Down in the ‘Glades we've been finding lots of small speckled trout that eat everything tossed their way each day. My last day there, last Wednesday, I quit counting when we'd caught and released over twenty at just one spot in less than 30 minutes on lures.

Everglades Report
Florida Sportsman member: lemaymiami
There were so many tripletail at this spot that a half dozen at a time would come up after any jig we tossed at them. My two anglers that day limited on a pair each for the table, while releasing a half dozen more on the same small lures.

Daytimes are for the Everglades either out of Flamingo or Everglades City. Our most recent trip there was over on the Flamingo side for two days and the fish were biting…. I had Steve Benson, his 13 year old son Kobe, and Kobe's friend Luke aboard. These two young men are already accomplished anglers, ready to go heads up with anything we found for them.

First Time to Flamingo
Florida Sportsman member: duke6543
Within minutes of dropping the anchor it was one after another. Gulp shrimp was a good producer for trout and mangrove snapper and when the lady fish showed up and sacrificed themselves to allow us to use fresh dead bait the fishing took a turn for raising the excitement level.

South Inshore Bite
Florida Sportsman member: lemaymiami
Closer to home in Biscayne Bay the night scene has been going strong with baby tarpon. Some nights we laugh since along with the babies, we've been hooking and losing much, much bigger fish. These fish are willing to eat any artificial shrimp that crosses their path while they're at the surface in the shadows under one bridge or another.

Catching Fish, Day and Night
Florida Sportsman member: lemaymiami
An hour later we were after big tarpon in a small river. The following pictures tell the story after we found a few big fish holding up inside a river, quietly poled near them and eased a live ladyfish over the side and allowed it to swim where they were holding.

Fun in Flamingo
Florida Sportsman member: Manbeast
Saturday was extremely windy, cloudy, and a lot of the water was blown off the flats so we didn't spend any time searching for the reds in the shallows. After having some trouble locating good water, we found a 31 inch snook and a 26 inch red to follow shortly after.

Backcountry Success
Florida Sportsman member: lemaymimami
The last big fish that day was a solid 80 pound tarpon that picked up a bait meant for redfish in right around two feet of muddy water, gave us a few explosive jumps in a tiny creek near Lostman's river then shook the hook.

At night locally the snook and small tarpon are hungry wherever you find them. We managed to jump tarpon on both fly and spinning gear at more than one spot the one night we went after them. We also released three small snook up to almost slot size that were hanging around dock lights on the same flies and lures.

Hot Bite in the Bay
Florida Sportsman member: Tidesright
We had to force my buddy John on the bow as he is always quick to jump on the poling platform. He got a shot and the line started to peel off the reel as the fish screamed across the flat. A couple tense moments later and Permit was in the boat!

The fish ranged from 30 to about 80 pounds and, of course, using the lightest rod on my skiff the young man tossed a small jig, allowed it to sink, then hooked up solid on a 40 pound fish. For the next 20 minutes that young man fought that tarpon around and around with the fish doing its best to get free.

The shark made another 350 yard run this time with such an aggressive nature I began to worry this fish had just awoken and was hell bound. After about an hour of being in positions only seen in the matrix my strength was wearing thin as every muscle in my body began to convulse.

Trout Chewing in North Biscayne Bay
Florida Sportsman member: closcab
We were using Live Target Scaled Sardine and Tsunami swim baits. We limited out fairly quickly. Although we did not hook up with any gators all the keepers were quality fish with too many to count that were let go. The trout seem very hungry and will go after anything that looks like a pilchard. The next few weeks should be great if you are looking a big gator trout.

Day and Night Bite, Down South
Florida Sportsman member: lemaymiami
Four more times I had the leader but the fish was still way too strong. Finally Neil's rod broke at the base ferrule and it was all I could do retrieve the broken portion, which had slid down the leader to the fish. Giving it one last try I almost had the lower jaw when the fish slapped me upside the head with its tail and took off again, breaking the leader!

Flamingo Reds
Florida Sportsman member: heavychevy15
The reds were everywhere in the morning and the first cast my buddy made produced a 29.5 inch red. Shortly after I got a 24inch red, so we decided to go after some snook. After a couple hours of no Snook taking our baits we went back to the flats. Found reds all over but they weren't willing to take anything we threw at them.

Hungry Fish In The Everglades Backcountry
Florida Sportsman member: lemaymiami
Trout ate a small fly after we chummed a bit with small white baits. For about an hour every cast was a hookup or a missed opportunity. The fish were trout, mackerel, jacks, ladyfish, and some surprisingly large mangrove snapper.

Flamingo On Fire
Florida Sportsman member: lemaymiami
Just before noon we made a shift in tactics, leaving the areas we'd been working and running a few miles north just before the high tide. Our first task was to load the well with the only bait we found, some very nice sized pilchards and small herring along a shoreline. Then shifted our tactics entirely to live chumming and working those same baits on troll-rite style rigs underneath where our chummers were getting worked over. What a difference that shift made. I'll let the pictures tell most of the story.

Miami Backwater Bass
Florida Sportsman member: COBRA
Not to be discouraged I quickly switched areas and tried again. Still no Tarpon but we did managed a couple of Snook and some fresh water Jack Crevalle. Now the sun is higher in the sky and it's Peacock Bass time. Another short run and we we're into prime Peacock bass waters, ready for a fight. It wasn't long before the duo were hooked up to their first Peacocks Bass.

Peacock Bass and More
Florida Sportsman member: COBRA
Speaking of lures, Terroreyz seem to be getting a lot of attention out here. Don't be surprised if while casting at some "obvious" Peacock bass spot, and you get slammed by one of the fresh water Jack Crevalle patrolling the area. It happens a lot while I'm out there with a client. The look on their faces is priceless! "salt water fish in fresh water?" is what I usually hear from them in astonishment. Anyways we took a few pictures for memories of the day. Thanks for reading our report.

Everglades Backcountry
Florida Sportsman member: COBRA
Ok, so now we're nearing our first spot of the morning. It is a very nice point along a mangrove lined shoreline. I shut down the outboard and deploy the trolling motor to get stealthy. I hand my angler a rod with a DOA shrimp attached and tell her where to put the cast. She takes aim and fires off a 50 foot cast right on the mark. Bam! She's on her biggest Red to date. After a very touch and go battle she lands it, and it smiles all around. Most of the rest of the day we played with Trout and more Red's with a few jumped Tarpon.and a couple of Snook lost at the boat. All in all it was a very good day and I'm looking forward to many more days like it.

Ft. Lauderdale Tarpon
Florida Sportsman member: The Lazy Marlin
Here is a a short video we just made of our first tarpon landed aboard @Thelazymarlin. No harm was done to the fish and was released to fight another day. Caught it on 15-pound mono with 80-pound leader, freelining a chunk of bonito (bimini bonito is the trick!). We are estimating this tarpon at 40 pounds. This is the first one we have landed out of about 5 that jumped off.

Mission Accomplished : Cobia & Snook
Florida Sportsman member: Bullshark
I started off by attending a fishing seminar at White's Tackle in Stuart which was headed by the host of Reel Time Florida Sportsman George Gozdz. It got me pumped! It was a Cobia and Tarpon seminar.
So after we got our bait we hit the beach for Tarpon. We found nothing. Cobia never crossed my mind until the class but since I had a idea now how to catch them in this area we set out. That was one of the first times in my life that on the first trip of targeting a certain fish we nailed it. We went 5 for 7 on Cobia. We lost a monster that hit the rig with smaller leader but got our limit of keepers.
At this point things got crazy! First cast snook then he doubled up for 2. Then he hooked into a very large fish which was landed. We were beaming at this point at our luck. I noticed as we were leaving some very big fish cruzing the bottom of a channel. I said lets try for those thinking they were Tarpon. The first cast with my Tarpon set-up and the rod bent like it never has before then the biggest snook I've ever seen breaks out of the water. This is by far the biggest snook I've ever caught…

South Beach Snookin'
Florida Sportsman member: Poseidon10/31
Tried to get off the beach in my yak this morning but the surf conditions put an end to that. Instead, I soaked a couple mullet in the wash looking for snook and I was quickly rewarded. Went 1 for 2 on live mullet and called it a day. Looks like its that time of year. Fish was 39 inches with a 21 inch girth.

Successful Trip to Flamingo
Florida Sportsman member: USNavy_Angler
So this was our second trip to Flamingo. The first one we had very little luck landing fish. Given that it's a 140 mile round trip, it was tough coming home with only one Redfish landed all day.
We were dockside by 5:00 a.m. and in the water by 5:30 a.m.. Got to watch a beautiful sunrise as we planed through the channel on our way to our spot. Around 6:15 a.m. we began casting topwater lures while poling through the flat. Instantly caught and landed a Jack, and then a huge ladyfish. Things were looking up with tons of topwater activity from baitfish. Not long after those first two, I hooked and fought a large snook, but he got away. But then, wham! A red jumps out the water and swallowed by MirrOlure Topdog Jr! It measured at 29 inches and weighed 9 solid pounds! No longer then 10 minutes later my buddy fights and lands a snook like the one I lost, or maybe even the one I lost[...]

Welcome to Jurassic Park
Florida Sportsman member: Sammy T
By now we have nicknamed this place "Jurassic Park". Again, no success and got our a$$es handed to us .
For the next week, its all I can think about. I make the arrangements to come back the following weekend with some heavier gear.
Saturday morning we strike out on the trout and make it over to Jurassic Park around 9:15. Get everything set up and couldn't get a second bait down before bait number 1 gets eaten (these things are in there thick!). Here we go again . At 1 hour we see its back and confirm it to be a sawfish.

Reds in Paradise
Florida Sportsman member: flatsstalker
Headed to the keys on Saturday to meet up with Gil (aka Reel esc) and do some yellow tailing, but the other guys cancelled so we decided to take out his skiff and head out to fish flamingo . When we got to flamingo winds started blowing hard around 20 mph. Fished first spot but no one was home and with the winds blowing hard I decided to fish a spot that's protected, and as I expected we ended with 5 reds which 2 were keepers. Then we headed out looking to try for a quick cobia bite as all of a sudden the winds seemed to die down but no luck .

Permit on the Flats
Florida Sportsman member: flatsstalker
Decided to do a late fishing trip with my girl and Capt.Rob aka GettingJiggy .We picked up A couple of crabs and shrimp and launched the boat in search of bonefish and permits. Rob wanted to pole some flats he had in mind and we did. 1st flat produced a very nice Cuda laying in a sand hole waiting to ambush incoming pilchards. Casted pass her with a mirrodine and saw her follow and with a fast run hit the lure and gave a screaming run. Next flat Rob decided to pole in search of permit. Soon Rob points out an incoming permit that I almost dint noticed as I was focused on another permit farther away. Casted the crab right in front of her and all of a sudden she turned grabbed the crab and we were on with an explosive run that almost spooled me[...]

Key Biscayne Trout Bite
Florida Sportsman member: UrbanAnglerMiami
Hooked up with my buddy Rob, aka "Gettin Jiggy!" for some reds in Key Biscayne today. After Rob blacked out the well again, we headed out in search for some bulls. Rob makes catching bait look oober easy. Unfortunately, we didn't see a single one but didn't look too long before we found a new species at one of Rob's old spots. Speckled Sea Trout! Ironically, he had mentioned something about trout as I got a few nice ones the day before in BB. We rolled up on what we thought was mullet. I saw what looked like a trout's back ripping across the surface and made a long cast into the frenzy and hooked up to a 18 inch solid speck on a "chard". We started to hook up back-to-back, with a constant bite, I tie on a top water lure and the fun factor jumped up a notch or two. We quickly got our limit with 8 solid 18 inchers and we released another 7-8, 18-20 inch+. Rob decides to tie on a top water lure also and we were both like little kids, tearing it up. I lost a couple of hogs, one "gator" was pushing 30 inches. I couldn't believe it!

Flamingo Action
Florida Sportsman member: ragsnook
[...]The weather was beautiful and the fish were hungry. We each caught a handful of redfish up to 24 inches, with Thomas catching the biggest ones. After that we caught a handful a snook and a couple of Black Drum as well. During the day I had mentioned to him that I fished the day before and had caught a bunch of sheepshead not to far from where we were and he was game to give it a try. Just like the day before the sheepshead were there and ready to eat. We caught our share of sheepshead for the rest of the day and even had a few surprise catches of a small goliath grouper and a nice size blue fish. Just another beautiful day in paradise if you ask me.

Biscayne Bay Action
Florida Sportsman member: Gettin' Jiggy!
Fished with Joel (flatsstalker) yesterday. Started the day stalking the most elusive species on the flats, the sheepshead. Damn, those guys are spooky in shallow water. We couldn't get them to eat our shrimps. So, we moved onto some snook and found many, but didn't get the right shots on them. We had two fat snook come out from under the mangroves and nose Joel's lure, but they saw us and turned back for the bushes. Awesome sight though. That's what happens for poling too close. Joel had the hot hand with the trout and snapper after that. I moved to a little tarpon hole and we got one each[...]

Today I met up with Sean aka (Tailchaser69) and we decided to explore some spots I haven't fished for a long while. We got to the first spot and decided to fish with artificials. On the first cast we were met with a school of jacks singles and double hook ups. Suddenly we were both hooked up with blue fish and a pompano on soft plastics. The bite died for about 10 minutes and then it was on again, but this time we were on a non stop trout bite . Caught limit quickly and we decided to move on to the next spot in search of reds.

Backcountry Report
Florida Sportsman member: lemaymiami
This past week it was mostly fly fishing and on Thursday and Friday I had visiting angler Jonathan Hey aboard. He was on his way down to Mexico from London and wanted his first trip to the Everglades. As anyone on the water these recent weeks can confirm, our local weather hasn't been the greatest. Lots of wind, day after day, and water temps that are moderate for a day or two then quickly drop five or six degrees in just one night. It's enough to make the fish a bit confused…. and this guide as well. Using just one rod (a lovely Sage 9wt) we worked the interior in Whitewater and Oyster Bays the first day and Jonathan got a backcountry slam of trout, redfish, and snook [...]

Reds in the Bay
Florida Sportsman member: Gettin' Jiggy!
Today, I stuck strictly to sight fishing with Hai, aka Urban Angler Miami. We made the run out of Key Largo to the redfish grounds in Florida Bay. Hai had some good shots and landed 3 reds from 22-28″. I managed to wet a line for a little bit and fooled a fat 25″ red on fly from the platform. The water temp was between 67-70*F throughout the bay. Hai caught one of his reds on a skimmer jig tipped with a shrimp, and two on a gold spoon where the water was a little cloudy. We saw a lot of quality fish today, but didn't have the right shots at them. Not a whole lot of fish, but still a productive day for covering new waters[...]

Great Day in Flamingo
Florida Sportsman member: Shallow Minded 69
Went out yesterday early with a friend and his two boys as well as my own two boys for another adventure in the park. Needless to say, it was one of my best days ever. Started off at Snake Bite with over 20 Sea Trout of which we kept 6 within size limit. All other safely returned to the water, but boys had a blast with the non stop action. Then my little guy caught his biggest Red ever at over 29.5 inches. Action slowed down by 9:30 am so we decided to move closer into the flat. Picked up 3 more legal Trout and a bunch more little ones with even a Lady Fish and several Jacks showing up to the party[...]

"We start to work a huge pea with live bait as the arsenal of lures came to a halt.

They change their brilliant colors to a dark shade, blending almost perfectly with their environment but one tell stands out. The iconic sign of peas; their orange to red and golden flecks on the pectoral fins and tail. We got him to strike a few times but could not seal the deal.

Got a late start with a buddy, Hai. Today's target was to find some calm, fishable waters. Trolling motor wasn't working, so I had to pole all afternoon. Basically, we were targeting reds, snook, and maybe a bonefish. Had a few shots at snook, and Hai had the hook pull on a 35 inch, plus or minus, redfish earlier on. Saw a few more reds, but didn't quite get the right shot at them. I pulled up to another spot, I spotted a nice red immediately and Hai got the right shot on this one and landed a fat 29 incher [...]

Finally got back out on the water on Friday and we ran all the way across the interior to the Gulf coast before slowing down. It was high outgoing tide and that first shoreline was very active – we could see small tarpon rolling, small to medium sharks in really tight to the shoreline (in some cases so hot to feed that their backs were out of the water…). One of my anglers promptly hooked a small tarpon on a 1/8 oz. jig and we were in the thick of it [...]

Hot Bite in Flamingo
Florida Sportsman member: Brental8
We snuck out to Flamingo for Labor Day and had our hands full with a wide open snook and redfish bite. We tallied over 50 reds up to 32″ and over 20 snook reaching 28″. Black drum, seatrout, flounder, sheepshead, ladyfish, and a few big sharks also ate our baits, making for an unbelievable amount of action! The bite is on fire down there right now, probably due to the passing of the most recent storm.

Life is Good in Flamingo
Florida Sportsman member: scottbrown
The weather has been extremely hot but the fishing in the park has been really good with a lot of quality fish landed in the past week. The best time to focus your efforts during the late summer months is definitely early in the morning and late in the afternoons. Fish are certainly more active when water temps are cooler and will be much more open to chasing an artificial lure during these times.

Fishin' in Flamingo
Florida Sportsman member: Miami101
The weather has been scattered rains and winds, I guess due to hurricane season. Also the bug levels are very high, and the roads are being work on which means delays once your inside the Everglades National Park (49 Miles from start to boat ramp). The water is cloudy due to the mix of fresh water into salt on the front side, and dark red tea color on the back side, and light cloudy green in some parts. The heat is pretty bad on some days, and there is a nice mix of thunder storms [...]
