(Trachinotus falcatus)
Permit fishing in south Florida offers an excellent opportunity to develop your angling skills. There are three hotspot areas to target these smart and hard fighters:
- Biscayne Bay - flats on the eastern side from about Soldier Key down to Sands Key and mangroves on the western and southern side of the bay
- The Lower Keys - rocky flats from Upper Harbor Key down to Jewfish Channel; asides from combing the bottom, Permit here often feed on the surface of the water as well
- Key West - the vast flats of the Lakes region; this is where the biggest Permit in Florida are
* Of course, the strip of islands in between the Lower Keys and Biscayne have their fair share of flats hosting an abundance of Permit, too.
Some excellent guides that can take you out for Permit will be: captain Dave with Grateful Dave Charters or captain Mike with C Hawk out of Key West; captain Ted with Skins and Fins or captain Matt with Bamboo Charters out of Islamorada.

Reseñas de Pesca en Permit Fishing in Florida
If you’re a first time fisherman, the intercoastal offers a nice place to get comfortable with your gear. If you’re experienced, the gulf is just right there and easy to access. March was a good time of year to go (March 23rd for us) as it was slightly cool to start, but warm and enjoyable enough and never TOO hot.

The bite was a little slow but picked up as the trip went on. March is very windy so just be prepared to fight some wind.

There were many fish caught that we couldn’t keep because they weren’t in season. We still had a wonderful time and brought home 3 gallon ziplock bags full of Vermillion Snapper.

At this time of year catch numbers are going to be highly dependent on recent weather!

Great spots but pay attention to the weather when you book. It was much cooler than we thought it was going to be. The water temp dropped to 56 degrees and slowed the bite down.

Know your dates, what’s in season, and what species is running that time of year. Doing that research will save you the disappointment of not catching your target fish.

Be aware that the weather is in constant change. There are no guarantees that every day will be a banner fishing day. That’s why it’s called fishing.

Spring for a bigger boat with more amenities like AC in a closed in cabin, a head, and a captain's chair.
