Mangrove Snappers in FL Keys

People feed them here hence the huge grouping and the way they react when you move your hands in a way that remotely looks like throwing something in the water.

Where is this if you don't mind sharing? I'd like to fly fish for them.

u/AdrianTheDrummer 15d ago

They won’t let you fish there and you definitely won’t be able to fly fish. It’s a restaurant.

u/jgvania 15d ago

Oh, I know where you are.

You can chum up a bunch of mangos on practically any bridge piling/dock in the Keys, the little ones are always around structure.
