Dry Tortugas Weather Forecast
Fishing reports straight from our guides in Dry Tortugas
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.

Our temperatures have remained mild even into January and we were having comfortable dive troops getting lots of lobsters and lionfish. We can even split your half day lobster trip when our lobster in one hour patch reef fishing to get your lobsters and lane snappers.

Yellow Jack fishing has been very consistent over the past few weeks. Live bait such as pinfish or pilchards has been producing best, but anglers are also catching them on bucktail jigs and topwater lures. These hard-fighting jacks put up a great battle and are excellent table fare.
The inshore snapper bite is red hot right now. Using live or cut bait, anglers are catching plenty of legal snapper in the shallow waters.
A few cobia have started to show up, but the large numbers we’ve seen in recent years haven’t arrived just yet.
