Old Rhodes Key, located on the east side of Islandia in Miami-Dade County, is a productive inshore fishing area featuring mangrove shorelines, seagrass beds, and tidal flow. This calm zone is popular with anglers targeting mangrove snapper, sea trout, snook, and small tarpon. The structure and current create ideal conditions for fish to ambush bait, especially during moving tides. Whether drifting baits or working soft plastics along the edges, this area delivers solid action year-round and is a great escape from the more pressured spots closer to the mainland.
