Key West Fishing Report

We at the Saltwater Angler wish the best on your Key West fishing adventure. We wish you a warm and sunny welcome from our little slice of Key West paradise. Thank you for your interest in our Key West Fishing Report for Fishing in Key West and the lower keys!

Happy New Year!!! The winter weather has arrived. This week the forecast is calling for winds from 12 to 20+mph. Monday through Friday is calling for north to northeasterly winds in the mid teen to 20+ range. Saturday and Sunday are calling for north to easterly winds picking up to the twenty mph range. The forecast is calling for partly cloudy skies with intermittent sunshine, throughout the week. The temperature is set to be in the mid to low to mid 60’s.

The winds will be in the 12 to 20+ mph range most of the week. Captains have been reporting groups of Juvenile Tarpon, with some bigger fish mixed in with the right conditions.

Bonefish have been a pleasant surprise with many fish being caught as the water temps cool down from the summer heat. Look to find most Bones active on a tide change later in the day when the suns had a chance to warm the shallows up.

Permit have still been slow this time of year. There have been some permit around, but as always they can be picky and elusive. The large Cudas are out on the flats as the water temperature has started to drop. These guys are a great challenge on fly or light spin gear. Remember to get the fly moving fast to get their attention. They love live bait!

Wishing everyone tight lines and fish boatside!

Offshore there have been a great variety of fish being caught. Snapper and grouper have been the normal culprits on the bottom. There have been a mix of Wahoo, with some Kings, Barracudas, Bonita, Mahi’s, and some Blackfin Tuna have arrived. Sailfish have also been on the prowl.
