About This Spot
East Arsenicker Key is a remote mangrove island in Biscayne Bay, just east of Homestead in Miami-Dade County. Surrounded by shallow seagrass beds and tidal flats, it’s a favorite among inshore anglers targeting species like sea trout, mangrove snapper, snook, and the occasional redfish. The area offers excellent opportunities for sight fishing, fly casting, and poling quietly through calm, protected waters. Its isolation makes it an ideal location for a quiet day on the water, away from busy channels and boat traffic.
