Fish On at Clam Pass

The South Tamiami Trail (below) has several canals that hold Tarpon and Snook, especially in winter. Mornings are best. Sink tip line can be effective.

 Baby Tarpon

The location above is a canal system in the Everglades. Alligators, Manatees, Snook, and Baby Tarpon are common. Hooking a Baby Tarpon takes as much patience and skill as any other fly casting and fly selection is ultra-important.
  

Naples Area Wade Fly Fishing

Naples has several wade-fishing areas where it is possible to catch Baby Tarpon, Snook, Jacks and Spotted Sea Trout on foot. Often my choice for wade fly fishing in the Naples area when conditions are right...is Clam Pass. 

Choice of tide is the outgoing to low, however we have caught fish at all tides.

Early morning beach fishing near the Passes is often good for Snook and roaming schools of Jacks. A floating line is the choice for this walking-sight-fishing trip.
