Key Largo sits at the northern tip of the Florida Keys, offering unparalleled access to both offshore and reef fishing. The Gulf Stream runs close to shore here, bringing nutrient-rich waters that attract baitfish and the predators that follow them. Our charters target the productive waters around Molasses Reef, French Reef, and the deeper blue water beyond the reef line.
What sets our Key Largo fishing apart is the diversity – you might hook into anything from snapper and grouper on the reef to mahi-mahi, sailfish, and even marlin in the deeper waters. Captain Daniel adjusts tactics based on conditions, using everything from live bait fishing to trolling techniques that have proven successful in these waters for decades.
Key Largo's fishing conditions vary with the seasons, but the action stays consistent year-round. Winter months bring cooler water temperatures and excellent sailfish action, while summer offers the best chance at mahi-mahi and blackfin tuna. The reef fishing remains productive throughout the year, with snapper, grouper, and hogfish providing steady action when offshore conditions are rough.
Water clarity in Key Largo is exceptional, often exceeding 100 feet of visibility. This makes sight fishing possible on calm days, and helps explain why the area is equally famous for diving and snorkeling. Captain Daniel monitors weather conditions closely and will recommend the best fishing areas based on wind direction and sea state to ensure both safety and success.
Our fishing charters depart from Key Largo's convenient marinas, with exact departure location confirmed at booking. We provide all fishing equipment, tackle, and bait, though you're welcome to bring your own gear if you prefer. The boat is equipped with safety equipment, fish boxes, and comfortable seating for up to 6 anglers. Bring sunscreen, snacks, and drinks for the day – we'll handle everything else. Florida fishing licenses are required and can be purchased online or at local tackle shops before your trip.
