What anglers said about fishing in Upper Keys

but he's mainland we went out about 18 to 20 miles north and west of John Penny camp. the lesser fished areas are usually the best. the ones that are closer to the land are more fish than there's not a lot of fish typically on a cooler day with wind. also we use shrimp as bait. not recommended to use like dead squid as big because it's not indigenous to the area.

It was windy today which made the ride rough. We did not have any seasickness but the weather may affect others. We also probably would have caught more fish in calmer water, but the trip was still great!

Ask your guide about what to expect, what you need to bring, what is biting etc. We took our children and told the guide we just wanted to be busy catching fish, he kept us on them and we were actually kinda wearing out at the end. 6 hours was perfect.
