FLORIDA KEYS

Sport fishermen recognise Islamorada as the world’s sport fishing capital. Shallow, clear waters allow anglers to fish with light tackle for big fish of many different species.

Islamorada is about halfway between Miami and Key West; spread over four islands. There is the chance to fish the off-shore reefs or fish Bayside for tarpon, bonefish, permit, sharks barracuda, stingrays and many more.

The main fish targeted are tarpon and shark. Tarpon, regarded by many as the number one sportfish in the world, offer great excitement and drama.

A particular attraction of this holiday is that most, if not all, of your fishing will be with Englishman John Rawle, one of the most knowledgeable sea anglers on either side of the Atlantic, and a prolific writer on the subject. John is great company, and with ten seasons of fishing the waters off Islamorada under his belt, has established himself as being one of the top tarpon guides on the Keys.
