Big Pine Key Weather Forecast
Fishing reports straight from our guides in Big Pine Key
Even with the high winds we have managed to gind decently calm water holding lots of fish. Inshore and patch reefs are full of big lane snappers, yellowtails, mangroves, and of course the out of season groupers. Offshore is a little funny this year. The tuna have showed up, and the mahi seem like they are going to stick around this winter. Some days have been a bit slow in the deep blue water, so trolling the reef has provided us with plenty of mackerel action.

Inshore on our 24' the reef has been on fire with almost every species of snapper. A ton of black grouper have been caught because the season is closed. Couple of monster sharks including a monster (10+ft) hammerhead. Cobia are starting to show up, but Im yet to catch a keeper cobia (yet) this year. The offshore bite has been hit or miss, but when it's good, it's gooooood. Just this week we have caught multiple species of tuna, sailfish, mahi, and we are targeting a full moon wahoo tomorrow.
