Capt. Eric Herstedt - Flamingo

The fly fishing around Flamingo has been weird and difficult. There's plenty of baitfish but the predators are spead out. A typical day is spent looking for Reds and both small and large Tarpon. The Trout fishing is slow but will improve quickly as more cold front move through. The most consistent fishing has been for sharks. Chum them close with strips of Ladyfish and throw BIG orange flies on floating lines. Get the wire and the big rods out!
