Fish In Lots Sea

Deep sea fishing in Key West can be an exhilarating and rewarding experience when approached with the best tools and right information. Wrestling with big game out of depths hundreds of feet below the ocean is not for the faint of heart – but the properly prepared fisherman is sure to come out a winner.

Key West Fishing: Know the Species

A good Key West fishing experience starts with a little basic marine biology – for example, knowing who’s in the water and when. So be sure to know which fish are coming through during each season, and have the proper equipment ready for when they come by. For example:

Sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus): Well known for their acrobatics during a fight, the sailfish can swim up to sixty miles an hour. The Florida record for this magnificent fish is 116 pounds and the best time to find them while Key West fishing is from November to June.
