More about Backcountry Fishing
Backcountry fishing by definition is fishing that is done on the inland waters around the flats in the shallows and channels. This area is pristine, clear and always full of fish.
Backcountry Species Of Fish
In the backcountry we are always on the hunt for many different species of fish. Always looking for a bent rod and a new species to tackle. The most popular species of backcountry fishing are the tarpon, jacks, barracudas, trout, pompano, black tip shark, bull shark, lemon shark, mangrove snapper and lady fish. More selected species include cobia, permit, bonefish, grouper and goliath grouper.
During the winter it is not uncommon to have one of our fishing charters to come back with 20 plus species of fish. All types of anglers enjoy this trip. Fly fishing, spin fishing and even bait casters are all provided.

4, 6, and 8 hour trips are available. We have bay boats with bathrooms and shade for your comfort. All of our bay boats are supplied with the best in tackle and equipment from Daiwa, Calcutta and Key Largo rods. See My Rates Page.
Included in our rates we offer; all fishing gear, tackle, bait, bottled waters, ice, rain gear and fishing licenses.
Flats Fishing Permit will go to the reef to spawn later this month. Tarpon Fishing is in full swing and the migration is about to begin.
Reef fishing is epic this month . Yellow-tail snappers, mutton snappers but grouper season is still closed.
Deep Sea Fishing very good when the winds are not cranking and strong. Rough weather makes the fish bite. Great sailfishing toward the end of the month into May. Some larger dolphin (mahi mahi), blackfin tunas and Wahoo can be expected.
Check out my All In Wonder fishing charter to see what that sort of day can provide you fishing with me in the Marquesas Keys and beyond. July and August is awesome for this trip.
Keep in tuned for up to the minute swings. Please feel free to call my office and we are happy to discuss whats happening and what you possibilities might be.
We use the term "backcountry fishing" to describe a de-tuned version of flats fishing. We go fishing in the same area but the charter experience is kinder to less specific anglers. More hands on help from the fishing guide to improve your day.
We use the term "flats fishing" to describe a more technical fishing charter experience. Accurate casting, self reliant anglers. Good listeners.
While both are great fishing charters. Backcountry fishing appeals to folks who just want to bend rods on many different species of fish or on whatever is available as long as it fights. Flats fishing charters are more for advanced anglers that have an agenda.
