About Florida Keys Flats Fishing Charters

Flats fishing is allot like backcountry fishing only more focused and disciplined and on a smaller boat. Fishing the same areas of shallow water with a specific species or technique of fishing in mind. Traditional flats fishing skiffs have the anglers on the bow of the boat and the fishing guide is on the back of the boat maneuvering his anglers into position using a long push pole. Sight fishing is the name of the game.

On a Florida Keys flats fishing charter, anglers are left to their own capabilities and not much help from the fishing guide when the time comes to make the connection. The fishing guide can only the direction and distance to cast. Accuracy is very important when casting either spin fishing gear or fly fishing gear while flats fishing. A moments notice is all you get sometimes when your targeted fish comes into range.

For a less challenging and possibly more rewarding experience on the flats, look into our Florida Keys backcountry fishing charters. Here you will find a less disciplined approach fishing for the same species with up to four persons and much more help from your Florida Keys Fishing Guide.

Our Florida Keys Flats fishing guides will take you to the fish and show you how to catch them using state of the art flats fishing boats, rods, reels, tackle and techniques. Spin fishing or fly fishing - your choice. Your fishing guides job is to quietly maneuver his angler into position to get a shot and cast to the fish. You make the cast, the fish eats and zing! the race is on. A true trophy of fishing is a fish caught fishing the flats of the Florida Keys.

Trip / Charter Details

Flats fishing boats only allow for 2 persons or less per boat, not only due to the size of the flats fishing boats but also due to the intensity of the fishing and infrequent shots.

Our flats fishing guides offer 4, 6, and 8 hour charters. We recommend 6 hours or less being the best deal. Rates start at 450.00 for 4 hours.

All of your tackle, licenses and instruction will be included. This includes fly fishing gear, bait, fly's, spin tackle, artificial lures, bottled waters and some ice to keep your drinks and lunch cool.

We recommend that you wear light colors and airy sport long sleeve clothing like the AFTCO fish Ninja shirt, that will keep you cool on the hot summer days. A hat, good sunscreen (lotion not spray please)

Basic Recommendations

We recommend that flats fishing anglers have some experience casting with light tackle spin fishing rods or moderate experience casting saltwater fly fishing rods to get the most out of a flats fishing charter. Those with less experience wanting to fish the flats we recommend our Florida Keys backcountry fishing charters on board our bay boats.
