In the Key Largo Area are Mosquito Banks, at a short distance from the Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park.
Mosquito Bank overlies a concave low-elevation indentation or reentrant in the bedrock depression beneath Hawk Channel. Sediments in Mosquito Bank are mostly muddy sands with patchy areas of lime mud that surround scattered patch reefs. Reef area hold tons of fish but is much better fishing in the winter mounths.
To get to Mosquito Bank from Pennekamp and Key Largo sound you just head out what is know as south creek, just look for a short tower to the south, it marks the inland side of the patches. Pretty much even if the wind is howling you will be able to see the patchs.
