Florida Keys Fishing

Florida Keys fishing is legendary with 225 species of game fish to be found in the clear, shallow waters of the Keys. Key Largo, Islamorada, and Marathon are among the favorite spots for Florida Keys fishing.

Sailfish, Snapper, Tarpon, Tuna, Wahoo, and Yellowtail can be found in these waters year-round. Blue Marlin and Dolphin fishing is best from April through July, Snapper fishing peaks in March, and Kingfish and Grouper are most easily found from November to March. Other popular catches include Bonefish, Redfish, and Snook.

In the Florida Keys, flats fishing (or sight fishing) offers a unique experience for anglers in the wide expanses of shallow water known as "flats." As the fishing boat moves silently through the water, propelled by a pole, fishing guides spot game fish feeding in the clear water.

Other popular types of Florida Keys fishing include deep-sea fishing, harbor fishing, wreck fishing, and reef fishing. Florida Keys fishing tournaments are held throughout the year and many offer impressive cash prizes.
