Spring

In the springtime, from March to June, tarpon fishing is popular in the back country. Tarpons typically move into these waters as they migrate northward as temperatures rise. Towards April the first Bonefish are caught. Permit fishing is excellent and offshore there's mahi mahi.

Summer

As autumn arrives, the tarpon moves back southward toward warmer waters. The weather cools and hurricanes are possible. But this fishing is great in fall here: mutton snapper, yellowtail snappers, groupers, permit... Many fish species gather around rigs and wrecks.

Winter
