Florida Keys Flats Fishing! Bonefish, Tarpon, Permit & Redfish
|
Flats Fishing
The Florida Keys.......One of the most amazing fisheries in the world! The Florida Keys are a year-round fishery. February through July is peak season offering sight fishing opportunities for bonefish, tarpon, and permit. For anglers seeking the thrill of a bonefish tailing in 8 inches of water rooting around for crabs and shrimp, permit rushing up on to a flat looking for Mr. Crab, or a bunch of tarpon heading straight at the boat, the Florida Keys are the place to be!
Tailing Charters offers guided fly-fishing and light tackle spin on the flats of the Lower Florida Keys. Capt. Chris Wells specializes in sight fishing for bonefish, tarpon, permit, and redfish. The Florida Keys boasts one of the world's finest fisheries and holds many world records. Our bonefish average 6-8 lbs, the permit are "Keysters" (big fat fish, often exceeding 25lbs.), and the tarpon move through by the thousands! If you are up for an experience and opportunity of a lifetime, then fishing the Keys is a must!
Capt. Chris Wells provides a fun and educational environment while fishing the flats. He offers trips for first time anglers as well as seasoned veterans of the flats. His goal is not only to catch fish, but to have fun and learn at the same time. "If you are having fun and learning, the fish will come".
