Fishing Key Largo

Key Largo is where the Keys begin and the fishing splits three ways: bonefish and permit on the shallow flats, snapper and grouper on the coral reef, and sailfish, mahi, and tuna in the Gulf Stream a few miles out. Tarpon prowl the channels and bridges, and the backcountry of Florida Bay opens up on the Gulf side. Few places offer this much variety in one run.

Target species

  • Bonefish
  • Permit
  • Snapper
  • Mahi-mahi

Local tip: Flats fish move with the tide and light; the reef and offshore bite runs more on current and season.
