WEATHER: We continued with the cool, overcast conditions for most of last week. We did see a couple of days with plenty of sun, but for the most part it was partly to mostly cloudy. Our daytime highs were in the mid 80’s and our nighttime lows remained in the mid to high 60’s.

Lower Keys Fishing Report

I hope everyone is enjoying there holiday season. It is currently 8 degrees outside with a light snow falling. The only fish within a few miles of me are likely sitting under a blanket of ice in the frozen over deep holes of the Snake River. Wyoming winter is quite a contrast to the Lower Keys tropical climate. Even as the snow falls my mind wanders to tailing permit and sailfish balling bait.

Complements of Mosquito Creek Outdoors, Apopka, FL

After a windy start to the week, the weather cleared up and an Indian summer settled in on the Indian River Lagoon coast in December. While two thirds of the country are dealing with snow and ice, I had to break out my winter shorts again as we experienced afternoon temperatures in the 80’s.
