In this video, we’ll take a trip down to Key Largo to check out one of Florida’s
most exquisite fisheries.
We’ll talk to some of our captains about the key target species, go-to spots, and everything
else you need to know before planning a trip.
After watching this video, you’ll be one step closer to experiencing the Florida Keys
and creating lasting memories in the Sunshine State.
Key Largo is surrounded by natural reefs and shipwrecks making it an ideal location for
scuba diving and it's even earned the title of the “Diving Capital of the World.”
The best part about Key Largo is the weather is always perfect.
Well, maybe not always perfect but pretty close.
The patch reef, there’s always fish on the patch reef.
Very seldom do you have a really bad day out on the water.
When hopping on a Key Largo fishing charter, you can expect to target a variety of species.
The greatest thing about Key Largo is the fishability.
All year-long, we have different species of fish.
We have Sailfish during the wintertime, the Mahi bite during the summertime.
Everything from offshore to inshore.
Backcountry Redfish and Snook to the Marlin, the Tunas, everything offshore that you can imagine.
Some of the structures you’ll definitely want to check out are Duane and Bibb Shipwrecks
as well as Molasses Reef and John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park.
These spots are premier diving sites, excellent for snorkeling, and perfect for bottom fishing
and drifting, too.
The best value for your money, especially if you have kids, is to do the fish and snorkel.
Go out, we fish some patches, then we take you to some spots, you can jump in the water,
look around and see everything, all the fish that are below that you wasn’t catching
or that you was catching.
This pristine ecosystem is ideal for targeting a wide range of inshore species.
You can catch Tarpon, Permit, Goliath Grouper, Mangrove Snapper, and many more.
My absolute favorite fish to catch has to be a Tarpon and I take pride in teaching my
clients what I’ve learned over the past 20 years.
So, absolutely hands down, Tarpon is number one.
Other great inshore spots include Harry Harris Park and Marvin D. Adams Waterway.
Here, you’ll battle Permit, Jack Crevalle, Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, and the list goes on.
After you’re done exploring the sounds and inlets, you should pick a day to check out
some of Key Largo’s deep-sea fishing grounds.
Whether you want to hit the Gulf or head out into the Atlantic, the angling opportunities
are plentiful – whichever direction you decide to go!
You can target Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Marlin, Sailfish, and many more.
I think the most exciting fish would be Mahi fishing during the summertime.
The colors on these fish are amazing, the big jumps, the amount of fish that you actually
see coming around the boat is unreal.
You can have up to a thousand fish sometimes swimming around your boat and on special days
you might even have one eat a bear hook.
I think that’s my favorite, favorite fishing.
With so many options between diving, snorkeling, fishing, or just hanging out on the beach,
Key Largo is the ultimate family destination and the perfect place to unwind and explore
one of the most beautiful archipelagos in the world!
