High tides and sunrise and sunset will be your best times to hit the beaches.
Dreaming the dream that one day I can be as good as some of the boatless pros and catch some 12 inch mangrove snapper.

Hi
Thank you for your reply. In Denmark it varies alot which time a year n which kind of species u want to Fish. If it is incoming or out going tide on specific locations. So u say High tide sunrise n sunset in febuary is best, after what? mostly snook n red Fish right or what?. Sorry for all my questions. Im just so curious n cant wait to Fish ur shores. N like to be as preperred as possible, since i dont have so much time. Do u know of any litterature in book form or on the internet where i can find information about flyfishing from the florida coasts. What kind of Fish can i catch in febuary from the coast around fort meyers n islamorada.
