Drift Fishing Charters In Naval Air Station Key West

Down in the Lower Florida Keys there is a lot to see more than just fishing! The wildlife is plentiful and interesting with a wide variety of birds, turtles, stingrays, and dolphins. Every time Captain Robert has a trip or a charter, people seem to be captured by the scenery there in the lower keys backcountry, as well as having a successful fishing trip! On this 4-hour trip, Captain Robert will motor you around the Florida Key inshores where you'll be chasing after some elusive Tarpon. You can target these hard-fighting fish with light tackle or fly rods. Going at night when the Tarpon like to feed will give you opportunities to land one on your line when the fish are most active! There's also nothing like being on the water as the sun goes down. Light tackle fishing on the flats gives you better opportunities with sight fishing Permit, Bonefish, Tarpon, and Redfish. Light tackle fishing makes itself the most common and versatile type of fishing with just about anything you can think of catching. Light tackle makes a great day out on the water in producing numbers of fish like Mangrove Snapper and Jack Crevale which is great for the kids. Another possible great opportunity for kids is Bonefish believe it or not. If you would like to do some fly fishing, feel free to bring your rod and Captain Robert will accommodate you! Fly Fishing is one of the most unique and challenging ways to go after saltwater species. It's especially true when going after bonefish, tarpon, and permit. Captain Robert suggests bringing a 9wt fast action fly rod with a good saltwater reel which is the most ideal for Bonefish, Permit, Jacks, Barracudas, Sharks, and small Tarpon. A 10 or 12 weight fly rod and reel is ideal for Big Tarpon, Big Sharks, Barracudas, and Permit. Captain Robert provides all fishing licenses, light tackle rods, reels and tackle, and an ice box. All you have to bring is any food or drinks you might want on the water as well as a fly rod if you want to fly fish. Book your trip and get ready to fight some Silver Kings! Read More
