Action-packed day from the get-go! Sean and I headed out this fall morning around 8:00 am with partly cloudy skies overhead and solid water conditions around Key Largo. The weather held steady throughout our offshore fishing adventure, giving us perfect conditions to work the deeper waters. This was exactly what we needed for our Party Boat Test Marketing Title trip with Fly To Fish Guide Service.

Once the stage was set, we focused our efforts on trolling, bottom fishing, and drift fishing techniques to cover different depths and structures. Key Largo's offshore waters are ideal for this combination approach because the drop-offs and current breaks hold fish at various levels throughout the water column. We didn't stick a trophy on this run, but every cast and minute on the water was worth it. The variety of techniques kept us busy, and we wrapped up the trip with great time and smiles all around!

The combination of trolling, bottom fishing, and drift fishing techniques we use allows us to target multiple species and adapt to changing conditions throughout the day.

This time of year is ideal for exploring the vibrant underwater world around Marathon, FL. The warm, clear waters and diverse marine life make it a prime destination for snorkeling enthusiasts.

We got our gear ready and headed out onto the water. As we reached the snorkeling spot, I could see the fish were active and the visibility was excellent. Sean was eager to jump in, so we took a few minutes to go over safety and technique. Once he was comfortable, he slipped into the water and began exploring the reef. I kept a close eye, ready to point out any interesting species we came across. It wasn't long before he spotted a large Yellowfin tuna cruising by, its powerful fins propelling it through the azure water. 

Throughout the trip, Sean had a blast discovering the vibrant colors and unique behaviors of the local marine life. We saw schools of tropical fish, a few playful stingrays, and even a curious sea turtle. The time flew by as he immersed himself in the underwater world, taking in all the incredible sights. When it was time to head back, Sean was glowing with excitement, already talking about when he could come back and do it all over again.

What a day out on the flats near Islamorada! I had the pleasure of taking Gtest out for a Florida Keys Flats Fishing trip with Fly To Fish Guide Service, and I can say with certainty that we had a blast. The weather was with us - partly cloudy throughout the day, which is ideal for spotting fish in the shallows. The water conditions were great, crystal clear for stalking our target species.

We started the day rigging up the 18' poling skiff, making sure Gtest's 8-weight fly rod was ready to go. It didn't take long before we started seeing some Permit tailing in the distance. I poled us into position and Gtest made a few careful casts, keeping the fly just out of their line of sight. On the third cast, one of the Permit turned and slammed the fly! Gtest set the hook and the fight was on - these fish really put up an incredible battle on the light tackle. After a few tense minutes, we were able to leader the Permit alongside the boat for a quick photo before releasing it unharmed. 

What made this trip so special was not just the quality of the fishing, but the whole experience. Sight-fishing the flats and backcountry is such a unique thrill, constantly on the lookout for those tailing fish. And Gtest was a natural - his double-haul casting was spot on, even in the light winds we had today. In between the fish, we enjoyed the stunning Florida Keys scenery, pointed out the birds and other wildlife. It was just a fun, laid-back day on the water.

If you're looking to experience the best flats fishing the Keys has to offer, I can't recommend the Florida Keys Flats Fishing trip with Fly To Fish Guide Service enough. Whether you're a seasoned fly angler chasing trophy Permit, or a beginner wanting to learn the thrill of sight-fishing, we'll make sure you have the trip of a lifetime. The fish are biting, the weather's beautiful, and the scenery is second-to-none. So what are you waiting for? Book your trip today and let's get you out on the flats!

Discover the thrill of Florida Keys flats fishing and land trophy Permit on a captivating adventure with our expert guide service - a memory-making experience amidst stunning natural beauty.

Thrill of the Flats: A Flats Fishing Adventure in the Florida Keys


The scene was idyllic – the river flowed gently, with just enough movement to create a soothing backdrop. The clear water offered a glimpse into the underwater world, hinting at the incredible fish that lay in wait. With my fly rod in hand, I began to work the river, carefully casting and mending my line to present the perfect fly.

It didn't take long before the first strike. A powerful brown trout exploded from the depths, its vibrant colors shimmering in the sunlight. The fight was intense, with the fish making several strong runs and testing my line and leader to the limit. But with patience and skill, I was able to bring it to the net, admiring its impressive size and magnificent beauty.

As the day progressed, I continued to work the river, exploring new pockets and runs. The rhythm of the cast, the drag of the line, and the anticipation of the strike – it's a sensation that never gets old. And when I hooked into a feisty rainbow, the experience was even more exhilarating.

The video I captured perfectly encapsulates the serenity and energy of this incredible fishery. The gentle waves, the occasional splash, and the sense of natural movement all combine to create a truly immersive experience. It's a place where time seems to slow down, and you can truly connect with the wild beauty of the river.

If you're a fly fishing enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the great outdoors, I can't recommend the Black River enough. This is a special place, with opportunities to chase trophy trout and create memories that will last a lifetime. So, if you're ready to embark on an unforgettable adventure, I'd be honored to guide you through these remarkable waters.

Embark on an unforgettable fly fishing adventure, pursuing trophy trout and immersing yourself in the serene beauty of the Black River – where the rhythm of the cast, the thrill of the strike, and the serene natural landscape come together for an unparallele
