There’s nothing quite like the thrill of stalking a Tarpon in the crystal-clear waters of Key West, waiting for that explosive strike. Key West Fly Fishing delivers world-class guided saltwater flats fishing with fly rods and light tackle, taking anglers deep into the pristine waters of the Florida Keys, Marquesas, and beyond. Whether you’re after the legendary Grand Slam—Tarpon, Bonefish, and Permit in a single day—or just looking for an unforgettable day on the water, this is where the adventure begins.
Fish the Legendary Flats of Key West
Key West and the surrounding waters offer some of the most productive flats fishing anywhere. The combination of warm currents, shallow sandbars, and vast seagrass beds creates the perfect habitat for some of the most sought-after game fish in the world.
- Tarpon: The Silver King. A high-flying, hard-fighting fish that will test your skills and endurance.
- Bonefish: The Ghost of the Flats. Fast, elusive, and a must-catch for serious fly anglers.
- Permit: The Ultimate Challenge. Pound for pound, one of the toughest fish to fool on a fly.
Of course, the adventure doesn’t stop there. Anglers can also hook into Barracuda, Sharks, Mackerel, Snapper, Cobia, and more.
