Florida Keys Kayak Fishing Tips – Geiger Key Fishing Spots.
Since there will be an influx of White Walkers coming down from the mainland, I figured providing a few spots to target will make things a bit more enjoyable. I utilize the Geiger Key public boat launch quite often in my videos and I know lots of kayakers like to use it as well. The issue any time you fish a new location is knowing where to go. Since many vacationers don’t have a lot of time for scouting out locations, I created this video to show some of my “secret” spots that I like to hit on my fun fishing days.
Hope it helps, and have a good time in the Keys.
