FLATS FEVER
The Flats - Key West’s Gift to Fishing
48 pound permit on #10 test line.
You bet. The back country flats are spectacular fishing grounds. Teeming
with game fish, there is no better place on earth to fill your head with memories
and stories of trophies.
But there’s a lot more to be learned on the flats than simply what kind
of fish life is in these waters. Often, customers just want to relax in the
warm sun and take in the magnificence of the nature that abounds all around
them.
For example, the shallow waters and countless mangrove islands present a great
opportunity for environmental and nature photography. Here, you will experience
numerous varieties of bird species and other marine life. Just some of the
birds that inhabit the quiet back country are Spoonbills, Egrets, Blue Heron,
Ospreys and Bald Eagles. There are Terns, Ibis and Cormorants. If you are an
avid bird watcher, you’ll love the flats.
It’s always great to see a hard-core fisherman come to Key West from
northern waters, all full of energy, and anticipation, and watch him (or her,)
slowly “unwind” once the peacefulness of it all comes “over
them.”
It’s the back country... the flats of Key West. It does it to you every
time. It's no wonder that anglers come back again, and again.
