The offshore bite has been steady with mahi and tuna. Reef bite it hot right now catching yellowtail and grouper. Inshore bite has slowed down a bit with this heat wave.

Fishing in Key West has been good lately. As the summer rolls in the snappers are spawning and yellowtail mutton and mangy's have been eating well along the reefs. Dolphin have been showing up but not in great numbers as of yet. Just a few big ones here and there and plenty of tiny ones. Hoping for that to turn into bigger fish soon.

Key West has had perfectly calm summer camp conditions with lots of sargasso grass to be found that is holding a lot of Mahi-Mahi. You can pretty much count on filling the box with some nice fish on 8 or 6 hour offshore trip. The current hasn't been terrible so we've been able to do some really good deep dropping although snowy grouper was closed early. We're still picking up a lot of good blue tiles.

And the Reef is still producing a very, very good red grouper, mutton, and yellowtail bite for the folks that want to stay a little bit closer in ensure. With these really, really warm and calm conditions we've been doing a lot of of Lionfish diving. Folks have really been able to fill up on them. I want to remind everybody too. They were only six weeks away from the opening of lobster season on August 6! Spots are filling up so book soon if you wanna get out and get your limit of lobsters

    Trip: Private Offshore Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    We had an amazing time iguana hunting! There were thunderstorms in the distance when we arrived, and I honestly thought the trip would be canceled—but our guides, Wesley and Matt, knew exactly what they were doing. We never got a single drop of rain and they spotted way more iguanas than we ever would have on our own. The only thing I’d do differently is bring my own flashlight. They had plenty to share, but not enough for everyone to have one at the same time. Highly recommend this adventure!
