Everglades Fishing Charters - Latest report by Capt. Austin Abercrombie

In south Florida we typically find ourselves dealing with windy conditions in March and the first week or two leading into April. Despite challenging conditions, our guided fishing trips are still successfully targeting snook, redfish and tarpon throughout the Everglades National Park. We have also experienced some later cold fronts that we didn't have last year which tend to put a slow down on the tarpon activity, prompting our fishing charters to pivot toward other species like triple tail and cobia which have been quite abundant.

As it warms up the two to three days after the cold front and the wind settles down, sight fishing for snook and redfish become a lot more bearable and the tarpon come alive! Our professional fly fishing guides specialize in these prime windows of opportunity.

In addition to the Everglades being a great option this time of year, Biscayne Bay fishing charters have been nothing short of epic, especially when we're talking bonefish. The lower tides bring in tailing fish, allowing for easier sight fishing opportunities particularly for fly fishing enthusiasts.

The permit are definitely around as well! Throwing live crabs this time of year is recommended for the windier days but the fly fishing opportunities are there also, just need to pick the right day or really hone in on that double haul! Our guided fishing trips can accommodate both conventional and fly fishing approaches depending on conditions.
