Grouper season just started which is a nice bonus as well be fishing for yellowtail snapper, both are amazing table fare. If your interested in offshore fishing mahi and start to really be plentiful on the weed lines and floating debris with the bonus wahoo or sailfish. Also this month is the start of snapper spawning and mutton snapper, mangrove snapper and yellowtail snapper will be aggregating to spawn on the reefs and bring a lot of action aggressively biting. Options and endless come make some memories this summer!

Justin Ferrell with Good Times Key West Key West, Florida Reported: 3 months ago

Even with the high winds, we have managed to find 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 shown 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.

Everything about our trip was outstanding! The boat, the Captian, Captain Carlson was fantastic. He wanted fish for every one of us on the boat even more than we wanted to catch! He worked so hard to load the boat and that we did!!! One of the best charters I have even been one. We all can’t wait to come back again and do it all over again!

We had an incredible day fishing with Tony! We booked an 8 hour fishing day and all of our expectations were exceeded, especially for a windy day. He was professional, but also down to earth, easy to chat with and made sure we had everything we needed for a successful fishing day! We are already looking for our next trip so we can come back and fish again with him.

Trip: Key West Fishing Slam
★★★★★
My son and came down to celebrate his high school graduation. Tony (Antonio) met us on the dock with a hand shake and a smile. We had an awesome day catching Mahi, black fin tuna, jack and bunch of other fish. Depending on the fish that we were targeting we would either troll or drift with live bait. Boat was in great shape, Tony was very nice and knowledgeable. To top off the trip we were troilibg and hooked up with either a sail fish or white marlin. Didn't confirm because we didn't land. But a great way to end the day. Thanks Tony for making it special
