Stop 14 · Islamorada · MM 071
Channel 5 Bridge Fishing Area
Fishing
Sister stop to Channel 2, where the Keys narrow around fast tidal flow and bridge anglers work the catwalks.
Why it matters
Channel 5 marks another Middle Keys pinch point where water moves hard between bay and ocean. Bridge stops like this make the route feel less like a drive-by view and more like a working edge where anglers read tide, current, and bait.
- What to order
- Current seams, bait schools, and patient bridge fishing.
- Hours
- Public fishing area; check current access and regulations.
