We are ending lobster season strong with the season ending March 31. Regular season opens august 6th, so start making some plans for a key west visit. Solid bite of all our reef fish, big muttons and yellow jacks. We are looking forward to the opening of grouper on 1 May. Hog fish and deep dropping also opens 1 May make some plans for that. Offshore Fishing will pick up as the water temperature warms up.

Winter has been very good to us down here in Key West. We had a good solid bite on the patch reefs, cobia on wrecks. Lots of really good days for Diving when the temperature has been in the 80s we've been getting good lobster in line, Fish Diving. There's still a lot going on, lobster season doesn't close for another two weeks, so you still got time to get down and get some bugs before the season ends.

    Sean was a guide who puts anglers safety at the forefront of everything which all anglers should appreciate. Unfortunately one of our two days was blown out due to weather. He persevered trying to put us on fish until the weather became too unstable. He has 30+ years of guiding experience in the area. Enjoyed our time with Sean.

    We had an amazing lobstering trip with Captain Paulie! He made the whole experience really fun and was also very informative throughout the trip. We checked a couple different spots and ended up getting plenty of lobster, which made it even better. He even cleaned everything for us afterward. Such a great experience from start to finish, and we would definitely recommend him!

    We had such a great fishing trip with Captain Forrest! We tried a couple different spots, and the fish were biting a lot, so there was plenty of action. We even got to see a barracuda, which was really cool. Captain Forrest made the whole trip fun and enjoyable, and we had a great time out on the water. Definitely a good trip and would recommend!
