Offshore Fishing Florida Keys

marathon, florida jkeys offshore fishing charters

Dolphin like this are not uncommon here in the Keys. Although Dolphin can be caught all year round, "prime time" falls in the spring and summer months. Dolphin, ranking a favorite amongst many anglers, can range from schoolie size, which are 1 to 5 lbs. to 50 lbs and up which are usually called Slammers or Gaffers. Dolphin are found anywhere from the edge of the reef, which is 3 miles out to distances over 30 miles. These fish are also tops on any menu. Just 3 miles offshore, depths of 80-200 feet can be found and are very productive of Sailfish and Kingfish. Traveling time of 30 minutes can take you to the Marathon Humps which are large underwater mountains that rise about 550 feet off the bottom. Depths around the humps are near 1500 feet. These underwater mountains cause very strong currents and trap baitfish at the surface hence making these fishing grounds extremely productive for species like Marlin, Tuna, Wahoo, Dolphin and very large Sharks. All species can be caught all year round but each species has its prime fishing
Reef and Wreck Fishing

Reef and Wreck fishing can provide hours of non stop action and not to mention some great table fare. Reef fishing mainly consist of anchoring on a reef flipping out the chum bag and it's anybody guess what can be on the other end of the line. Yellowtail , Mutton, Mangrove Snapper, Grouper, Mackerel are just a few species that can be caught on the reef line. The reef is about 3 miles offshore, so traveling time to the fishing grounds is minimal. This kind of fishing is highly recommended for children and family charters.

Wreck fishing is one of my favorite things to do. This type of fishing consists of drifting over shipwrecks with live bait. Once hooked, these fish will try to dig for the bottom and will go straight for the wreck so stout gear is used to pry them from their shelter and these tremedous depths . Fishing depths range from 80 feet to over 200 feet of water. Some species that can be encountered here are Amberjack, Large Grouper, African Pompano, Cobia, Kingfish, Permit, Jewfish and large numbers of Barracuda. Also large predatory sharks looking for a quick meal will often cruise the surface of these wrecks and can provide some great light tackle shark fishing

Come and spend a day in the gin clear water of the florida keys spearfishing for your favorite fish. Spearfishing for grouper, snapper, most blue water species like dolphin or wahoo. We can even catch a few lobster for the dinner table. I was born and raised in the florida keys and know the best spots for spearing big fish. I have been diving the florida keys since I was a child and my knowledge of local waters will be invaluable.
