Subject: Cold Weather Finally Gives South Florida A Break


Finally we catch a break from Mother Nature. I have fished the Southwest coast of Florida since 1972 and do not remember a colder winter and winter is only 1 month old. Two times this week I have had ice on the boat until around 9 A.M. This has made the fish and the fishing pretty slow as the fish, especially the Snook very lethargic.

Today we hit 70 degrees for the first time in a while. This should start to warm up the waters on the flats pretty quick, which in turn will kick the fish into action. The first sign of life will be the Redfish on the flats as the “Tail” their way along the grass flats looking for Shrimp and the few small baitfish that remain. Slow moving jigs and small spoons should work will along with slow sinking flies. The warmer water will also migrate to the deeper flats and should make for some good Sea Trout action. Snook will remain very slow since water temperature under 70 Degrees slows them down to a crawl. Pompano fishing is still very good around the passes and along the beach.

Good Fishing
Capt. Ken
