Backcountry is known as fishing the flats, bridges & channels that make up more than 500 sq. miles of ocean on the Gulf side of the keys. It is also commonly referred to as the bayside because of the average shallow depths and the usually calm situation that persists throughout the year. Backwater or flats can produce some of the most exciting light tackle sport fishing in the entire world. A large majority of light tackle world records have been accomplished in our beautiful island tropical paradise. The predominate game fish expected to be found in these waters are Tarpon, Snook, Redfish and Bonefish, with the almost always available saltwater Trout, Jacks, Snapper, Grouper, Cobia & oh yes lots of Sharks, I said "lots of Sharks!" Generally speaking a flats guide boat is about 20 ft. in length and is designed to fish 1 to 2 fishermen at a time. There fast and draw very little water that's there advantage and gets them through the narrow and often shallow channels to the best fishing action in just a few minutes.
