Key West Fishing Report

We at the Saltwater Angler 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! 

Greetings from Key West!  Saltwater Angler has the information for flats fishing in Key West.

The summer weather is here. This week the forecast is calling for winds from 3 to 22 mph. Monday through Thursday are calling for southwesterly winds in fishable single to lower double digit range. Friday through Sunday are looking like east wind days ranging in the lower to mid double digits. The forecast is calling for sun and some showers throughout the week.

Feels like early summer. Fishable winds throughout the week. Temperatures look to remain in the mid to upper 80’s for the next 6 days or so!

The weather seems to have finally made a change toward normalcy with high 80’s most of the next 2 weeks. The winds will still be averaging 3 to 13 mph most of the week, with the exception of some summer storms blowing through. 

Captains have been reporting groups of Juvenile Tarpon, with some bigger fish mixed in with the right conditions. Bone fish have been a pleasant surprise with many fish being caught as the water temps rise. 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 still out on the flats even with the warming water. 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, and the Mahi’s have arrived.

We wish you tight lines and fish boat side from the staff at The Saltwater Angler!
