Florida City's flats offer some of the best shallow water fishing in the state, with consistent water clarity that makes sight fishing particularly effective. The backcountry areas provide protection from wind and waves, creating ideal conditions for spotting and targeting fish. These waters hold good numbers of Redfish and Speckled Trout year-round, with Black Drum, Jack Crevalle, and Ladyfish making regular appearances.
Weather conditions can change quickly in this region, so layering is recommended even for evening trips. The local ecosystem is remarkably diverse, and you'll likely encounter various wildlife while on the water. Ray's approach focuses on conservation, employing catch and release practices to ensure sustainable fishing for years to come.
Your flats fishing adventure includes all the necessary gear – quality rods, reels, and bait tailored to the conditions and target species. The boat is specially designed for flats fishing, featuring a shallow draft that allows access to skinny water where bigger boats can't reach. With space for up to 4 anglers, everyone gets plenty of casting room and personalized instruction.
For maximum comfort, bring sunglasses (polarized preferred for sight fishing), sunscreen, a light jacket for evening temperature changes, and a camera to capture your catches. A small cooler with drinks and snacks is welcome, and don't forget a hat with a brim for visibility. Wear shoes with non-marking soles, and consider quick-dry clothing that provides sun protection.
