Flats Fishing Upper Florida Keys from Key Biscayne to South Key Largo including Biscayne Bay. Located just off Miami's shores, this is a short commute for anglers traveling through Miami, Ft. Lauderdale or Boca Raton looking to get in some flats fishing or sight fishing without incurring much off-the-water travel time!
Within minutes, stepping off a plane at Miami or Ft. Lauderdale airports and on board the TAR-BÕN headed to the first flat can be a reality. Miami Flats Fishing Guide Captain Jerry Murphy
 Captain Murphy has been fishing for over 50 years from Canada to Key West and Michigan to Virginia, pursuing everything from blue gills to bass, trout to bonefish, muskys to tarpon. Introduced to fly fishing at age 10, the fly rod is his tool of choice although he is also proficient with plug and spin casting. (Casting instructions given upon request for fly, spin, plug.)
For the last 35 years, Capt. Murphy has been Miami flats fishing in south Florida and the Keys where his passion has been Bonefish, Permit and Tarpon. He also guides for redfish, snook and trout in the back country and bass in fresh water.
Capt. Murphy holds a "Master Near Coastal" Coast Guard Captain's license and is fully insured. Fishing licenses are provided for all passengers.  Boat and Gear:
