Deep Sea/Reef Fishing Options

Towering coral formations wait just offshore of Ocean Reef and are home to a plethora of Snapper and Grouper species. Just beyond the Reef lays the Big Blue. The deep-sea waters provide an arena to do battle with a dancing Sailfish or troll the purple swells in hopes of tangling with a feisty Dolphin Fish (Mahi Mahi), Wahoo and various types of Tuna.

Flats/Shallow Water Sight Fishing Options

Fishing the tip of the fabulous Florida Keys, amongst the waters of the Ocean Reef Club, leads to endless angling possibilities. With fly rod in hand or spin tackle on board, the adventure begins. The placid, turquoise, saltwater shallows team with the elusive Bonefish, Tarpon, Barracuda, Sharks and Permit. The backwater creeks carved from a Mangrove jungle, provide habitat for lunker Snook, Tarpon, Jack Crevalle and more.

Store Manager: Traci White
You could say that there’s been saltwater in Traci White’s veins since the beginning. Growing up in the Baltimore, Maryland, area, her on-the-water experience began with her mom when she was a child. Together, they’d catch perch, croakers, bluefish, stripers, and blue crabs on the Chesapeake Bay. Over the years, Traci has resided in Arizona and California, but it was a solo camping trip to the Florida Keys that determined where she’d wind up living. As she tells us, “I packed my clothes in a cooler and my gear in a duffle, flew to Fort Lauderdale, rented a car, and drove to Key Largo, where I camped for a week. That's when I decided to move here!” A licensed captain since 2003, Traci loves everything about the area she now calls home, and spends her free time traveling to, of course, more islands, including the Florida Keys, The Bahamas, or anywhere tropical with beautiful water. At Orvis Ocean Reef, Traci and her team will do whatever it takes to ensure your on-the-water experience is the best it can be, whether you’re just visiting or live here year-round.
