Stuart Inshore Fly Fishing Charters
Stuart, Florida
The ultimate Flats trip for the solo fly or spin angler. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a "first timer" looking for that 'Catch of A Lifetime'- the flats of Indian River is where you'll find it. Fishing as a solo angler will maximize your catching potential. Making that 'Inshore Slam' you've been hoping for- much more attainable. The fish on these flats will test your ability to be quick and accurate. By fishing with Capt. Mark one on one you have the potential to capitalize on each and every shot you get. Safety, weather conditions, less boat weight, and better interaction between you and your captain are some additional reasons a solo angler trip is recommended. Capt. Mark's skiff allows us to take advantage of the shallow flats while also providing a silent and stealthy approach to the most wary of fish. It has been constructed to get us into mere inches of water enabling us to pole easily within close casting distance of fish tailing in as little as 6 inches of water. Aside from our targeted redfish, snook, trout, and tarpon- you can also expect shots at barracuda, jacks, snappers, and sharks. Our service will provide all of the necessary equipment; Fly Rods, Spinning Rods, lures and/or bait. However, you are welcome to bring your own equipment. **Guide fees include bait, water, fuel, ice, tackle and expertise. Other beverages, lunches and tips are not included. Deposit is required**

Barracuda
If you're looking to tangle with some 'cuda, Long Key offers some exciting opportunities. The channels and flats surrounding the island are prime hunting grounds, especially where strong currents concentrate baitfish. Barracuda here are ambush predators, so focus on areas with structure like docks, bridge pilings, and weed lines. Spring and fall are typically the most productive times, as water temperatures are moderate and baitfish migrations are in full swing. A top tip: polarized sunglasses are essential for spotting these silvery predators before they spot you. Also, be mindful of the tides; an outgoing tide can flush baitfish out of the backcountry, creating a feeding frenzy. Remember to use wire leaders to prevent bite-offs from their razor-sharp teeth. The Long Key Bridge and the surrounding flats offer easy access.
