Key West and Lower Keys

Giant Tarpon, Cobia Migrate into Key West Harbor Giant Tarpon have entered Key West harbor and the Lower Keys channels and basins on both the Atlantic and Gulf sides of the Keys! There are also Cobia available on the Gulf side flats and channels. Both species are being caught around Key West and Lower Keys channels and basins. Bonefish and Permit are also available, so we are fishing for grand slams daily. As long as the current weather pattern holds (70 to 80 degree temps), we should continue to see this excellent action in the latter half of February. Late February and March is the best time to stalk the most prized species on fly: Permit. March is also great for early Tarpon, migrating in from deep water. There are also Bonefish available, Jack Crevalle, Mutton Snapper, Barracuda, Shark and possibly Cobia.Before you travel to the Keys, call Capt. Dexter Simmons for a live report 305-745-3304.
