Bite was Bananas

Took a trip out to the Gulf side. The Gulf of America was full of life for us we caught tons of groupers, snappers, Cobia, barracudas, and a few really nice kingfish. Halfway through the trip one of the guys pulled out of banana which is considered very bad luck. Contrary to that superstition we had nothing but good luck. Was a beautiful day with a lot of action.

Sailfish season is kicking off early

Already as of March 1st here in Key West Florida we are seeing a lot more Sailfish then we usually would. With strong Gulfstream currents running close to Key West fishing has been really good. Bottom fishing we’ve been using a lot of lead to hold bottom in these strong currents but the bite has been on fire. Here just a few quick pictures from some of my recent trips.

 

Live bait for the win !

Live bait fishing has been red hot!! We are seeing lots of King mackerels, tuna and sailfish lately. The sniper fishing has been really good as well on the edges of the reef as well.

Here are a few pictures from some recent notable catches.

 

Muttons and more

With the rest of the United States in Sub-Zero temperatures Key West is definitely the place to be. Sunny and 75 with lots of snappers, jacks, sharks and so many others just waiting to be hooked.

Today we fished a deep wreck in 220 ft where we had great success catching five nice Mutton snappers one very rare Caribbean snapper. This was my first ever that I have caught in the keys in just over 15 years. We also landed one of the biggest White margates I’ve ever seen just over 14 lb. If you’re up north freezing your butt off give me a call let’s get out on the water and do some fishing. 😎

Winter fishing at it’s best

Winter is in full swing and the fishing couldn’t be hotter. Come get out of the freezing cold up north and lets go fishing.

The mutton snapper fishing has been really good, along with the blackfin tuna fishing in the evening has been lights out. I’m also catching lots of really big amberjacks out on some of the deeper wrecks. So whether you want to fight some really strong fish like sharks and jacks or put meat in the cooler like snappers and tuna there’s no better time than Key West in the winter.
