FLY TACKLE . All of the fishing can be done with light fly fishing tackle and encouraged by the guides. Anglers must bring their own gear. Fly fishermen need to have at least 1/8. Reels should be high quality and saltwater proof. Floating lines are the most practical. Use of sinking line is not necessary as the waters are shallow. Popular fly patters for tarpon, shook , barracuda, snapper and sea trout include, deceivers in various colors, cock roach, tarpon glow and poppers (sizes 2/0-4 for all patterns). Bone fish and permit fly selections should include: crazy Charlie’s (root beer, pink, gold, pear), sizes 2/8 crab patterns (mottled brown and green) sizes 4-6. |

CONVENTIONAL TACKLE: Light tackle is the best for this area. Light spinning rods 7 with marching reel loaded with 8-10 lbs test (200 yds), work best for bonefish and permit. Live crabs and small jigs with saltwater hooks work best for 10-15 lb yards, test should be used on tarpon, shook and barracuda, etc……. |
