Key West Late August 2008
T.S. Fay just moved through the area. Prior to that our fishery was well into its summer groove.
The flats are holding some permit and bonefish and with the bigger tides the wade fishing has been good in the evening hours in our backcountry.
Tarpon are scarce now. Some schools are still moving through the Lower Keys but hard to find and get them to eat. The best bet is to try a very calm day, early morning around the channels that feed into Key West Harbor, Bahia Honda or under the 7 Mile Bridge.
Offshore waters are holding bonito, dolphin, some marlin and wahoo. The snapper fishing on the reef has been exceptional and will probably continue to be good for a while until the water clears up.
