LOWER FLORIDA KEYS FLATS FISHING REPORT

Friday, 13 August 2010

Friday the 13th....

I love mornings like this!!

Fished with Tony and Chip the last two days.. Day one we worked to find bone fish on the atlantic side.. good tides,, good conditions.. good spots... Some how the bone fish did not get the memo.. We did get shots at a couple of fish, but I was hoping for more.. Conditions were right and these guys could put the fly were it needed to be.. When the tide got high we switched gears and looked for juvenile tarpon.. Checked several spots.. we either found none or LOTS.. Even got a couple of shots at lost permit in tarpon spots..

The second day we started before dawn.. Found rolling juvie tarpon in the first spot.. Tony jumped one on a gurgler.. later in the day we switched gears and decided to swing for the bleachers,, Checked out a place were there was a chance of getting a shot a full size tarpon..

Tony hooked up with a 6 footer... she ate the toad fly right near the boat... COOL EAT!!

Florida 2011 - two swiss boy's try hard to get'm from Daniel Baggenstos on Vimeo.

This fall, I had the pleasure of fishing with Dan and Dan from Switzerland.. They got here for our first "cold front". Fishing was a little tougher then it could have been.. But we fed some tarpon, boated jacks, sharks and a very nice snook..

They did an excellent job fishing and filming.. Check out the video they made..

Tarpon fishing has been good.. Tested the Go Pro Hero Video Cam.. Mounted it to the poling platform.. It did a decent job of capturing the jumps with the wide angle lense.. Think it will make a good addition for taking video of anglers on my boat... It can be difficult to film and pole..

Bonefishing has been good! This video has several random clips, shot while fishing with friends..

Mike and Rich made a video from our day on the water.. Mike boated a tarpon on fly and Rich got a big shark.. Fun day!

Bonefish, Permit and Tarpon....

Steve brought his 12 year old grandson Jaxon down to the Keys for his first ever salt water fishing trip.. Might be his first but certainly not his last.. Jaxon had a blast sight fishing to sharks and barracudas. First day, first shark was a 7 foot blacktip hooked in less then 3 foot of water.. It was fun..

Fished with my buddy Capt. Bo Sellers today..
Bo boated a permit on fly!

Giuliano and Massimo hooked up with tarpon every day.. baby tarpon and 6 footers.. Unfortunatly the big ones did not stay long enough to film..
But it was fun!
