Florida Bay Fire! by Steven Tejera (6/17/2009)
Flamingo is on fire! The weather for the past few days has been good with mainly clear skies and not a drop of wind, making for some excellent sightfishing. The Redfish have been up on the flats tailing, sitting, and pushing wakes on the flats all day. The Snook have been sitting in the potholes waiting for a mullet to come by and hammer it. We have also been seeing many laid up Tarpon with some schools cruising down the banks of Florida Bay.

Florida Bay Fishing The Summer Bite - Stay away Horseflies! by Steven Tejera (6/08/2009)
Summer is here and it's hot.

The fishing has been great this week in Florida bay. Snook, Tarpon, Redfish and Trout have been on the flats, island motes and channel runoffs.

Muddy Mullet - Fishing Is On Fire In Flamingo by Benny Blanco (5/19/2009)
In Flamingo if you find muddy water you'll find the fish… hungry fish. Mullet muddied areas provide refuge, camouflage and food for predatory fish like Snook, Redfish, Trout and Tarpon. The great news is the fish that gravitate to those “muds” are there for a single main reason… to eat. While muddy water may mean poor visibility of your bait, it may also mean poor visibility of you and your skiff.
