Fishing in the keys is still darn good. The quality Mahi are finally arriving! If you boat can deep drop the tile fish are the best table fare! Put larger black fin tuna fishing is just starting, along with the chance to pull ok a trophy tiger shark... the best...

Lobster season was a great success bone fishing and all backcountry suspects are all at large. Florida bay fishing is as good as it gets.

Lower keys flats fishing is still on fire, tarpon can be found on calmer mornings and a few straggler migrators can be found traveling. As the sun gets higher bonefish and permit can be found on any of the respective flats so long as the water doesnt get to hot. Unfortunately low pressure systems are more abundant this time of year which brings a lot of wind clouds and rain which makes it hard to see some of the fish on the flats.
