12/27/12 Key Largo Fishing Report December

Ahoy friends it is a busy week here fishing key largo and we’ve got some great fishing to report!  We fished flamingo today and I had Stephen, Holly, and son Joe.  We had a little bit more cool weather come in last night though it didn’t chill the water too much more which was good.  This morning was fairly breezy out of the north/north east.  No problem for my comfortable 20′ center console though!  Rod bending action was on the agenda for this key largo fishing report and we had plenty of it.  Started out fishing some channels for trout, jacks, snapper, ladyfish, and pompano.  We caught plenty of fish though had to jump around a bit which you often do on a key largo fishing charter.  We also caught a nice size bluefish which was a lot of fun for Joe!  We later tried hitting a small creek around east cape, was barely able to make it in with the dead low water, but we did it!  Unfortunately fishing wasn’t great there, the tide was just starting in but we only caught a couple small drum and some jacks.  After this we had to meet some other boats that were part of our group deal at flamingo for lunch.  This is a great option for kids and ladies, you can get off the boat, stretch your legs, use the facilities… whatever!  We then headed back for a little more fishing before the day was done.  December Key Largo Fishing stayed good through the afternoon, we caught several sheepshead, black drum, a few redfish, and one snook to end the day!  That’s it for now guys hopefully we will see you out on the water soon!
