The water temp has been coldest I've seen in a while. The inshore fishery was almost nonexistent for a couple days. Luckily as soon as the cold weather turned, the mangrove and lane snappers slowly started coming back.

On the days with decent conditions and adventurous guests, we ventured to a bit deeper water looking for a little warmer water temperatures. We found some nice red grouper (season closed till May) and a variety of quality snappers.

Beyond the reef had been decent. Not exactly all the designer fish, but plenty of action to be had. Decent numbers of cero,...

Spanish, and king mackerels, some cudas, and bonita have been caught as well. I heard of a handful of sailfish being caught as well.

We've been catching 5 miles from shore. Those are just some of the fish we caught.

Hey guys, been fighting some tough weather conditions. once we get through this cold spell, we'll get back in the water. We've been getting good lobsters and Lionfish. The cobia are here on the wrecks now and the patch reef fishing is staying solid.

Reef fishing has been consistently good with constant action on the yellowtail bite and a few good groupers. Inshore fishing has been steady with the lane snapper bite this week. We have had some fun night fishing trips catching sharks and loading up the cooler with snapper as well.

This time of year with the colder weather we have been targeting Speckled sea trout and pompano in the basin's. My last few trip we had a great bite with the trout including the photo of a 21" trout. A few pompano have been caught as well. Hopefully that bite will improve after this most recent cold front, also catching some big barracuda up on the flats which is typical for cooler winter days.

    Trip: Key West Inshore, Nearshore

    Our guide was knowledgeable and courteous I booked a all day trip and we had some good shots at catching fish. The only thing I was surprised at was the only food available for all day was water. I have booked many flats fishing excursions and always was supplied with at least a sandwich
