Shallow reefs

Can anyone give me the specifics or locations of good shallow patch reefs(10-15ft.) In the areas just south of Key Largo?

Thanks

no way

not legally down there. if you are up farther north - just north of pennekamp in biscayne national park -- there are some pretty good shallow patches. inbetween caesar's and angelfish creek there are shallow patches due east of hawk channel marker 21. great structure in 10-12 that comes all the way to the surface. there is no way you can miss it, you will literally run aground on them if your not careful. alot of it is picked clean, obviously. this is alright, get back in your boat and move about 30 yards to the next patch. you wont break the cooler with the amount of fish you catch but you will get more than enough grouper and hogfish for dinner. this is a GREAT spot for kids who are learning. my nefews go totally nuts.
