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!
The winter has been very unusual for the lower keys this year.
We continue to have days with temps in the 60’s just about every week. The winds continue to be very swirly as well.
Pay close attention to weather patterns this time of year when choosing your fishing days.
The Cuda Bowl has come and gone again. This year we had over 70 anglers in our version of the “winter bowl!” The Cuda fishing has been pretty steady with the larger than normal cold days on the flats.
Look for the big boys to be hanging out over bright sands spots in the back country keeping warm and waiting for prey. These guys make for a great time with speedy runs on fly or spin gear.
The juvenile tarpon have been active as well with soo much bait coming into the shallows.
Next to tarpon, the bone fishing has been the best option while pushing over the flats.
Remember that on days the water temp falls under 75 degrees, most back country species will be tough or non existing.
This time of year, offshore can be on fire!
Having options to venture offshore with a fly rod, can be exciting with Tuna, Cobia and even Sailfish as options for fly fishing.
Whatever your choice, boat and fish safe!
We wish you tight lines and fish boat side from the staff at The Saltwater Angler! Email us at [email protected].
