The Fishing Report. Nov. 14, 2011. {%image_id=15579%} {%image_id=13266%} {%image_id=13537%} There have been some Tarpon and Permit roaming the flats lately as fall brings in cooler temperatures here in the Keys. It is unclear whether the Tarpon are returning from their migration to the North or if they are just resident fish out for a stroll. No matter, it is fun to get some shots at fish on the flats in November!November signals the beginning of some of the best shallow water fishing for Barracuda, Redfish, Spotted Sea Trout, Pompano, Cero Mackerel, and Shark as well as Bonefish, Permit and resident Tarpon here in the Lower Florida Keys. Here is a picture of a monster Barracuda taken recently. Tarpon, Bonefish, and Permit are all available right now as the waters are starting to cool off a bit after a hot summer. Resident Tarpon are wandering around on the flats and in channels, Bonefish are tailing up on the backcountry flats, and Permit are migrating in from the reefs and wrecks to tail up on the flats. There are dates available in November and December, so contact me whenever you get the itch to catch!
