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.

    Trip: Ultimate Action Fishing In Key West

    We had an absolutely amazing time deep sea fishing with Captain Anthony! He is a fun and knowledgeable fisherman with LOTS of experience and great stories (ask him about how he’d dive for lobsters to impress his dates). He does all the work but lets you learn and participate as much or as little as you want. We knew we had an expert when we heard the radio chatter of all the other guides complaining that nothing was biting, while we pulled in six (only four mahi in pic). The other two were a small tuna and a ~32” barracuda). We highly recommend Kilo Whiskey Charter & Captain Anthony!

    Our guide Nick is top notch, he is friendly, knowledgeable and certainly knows great spots to fish. We caught fish all day, brought home three very large mutton’s, some other mutton’s and good size yellow tail. We caught and released fish all day, hogfish, large groupers and other assorted fishes. Thanks Nick .
