Fishing Report

The sailfish are transferring down the reef line and just about consuming the whole lot of their path. Sailfish have been focused and caught by a lot of the Key West deep sea fishing fleet on trolling ways and stay bait beneath a kite. A lot of the sailfish are being caught simply previous the reef line 5 miles South of Key West. The colour change has been “okay” however not tremendous sharp like we prefer to see it in April. These previous few days have been hampered by some climate however after the final entrance issues acquired straightened out fairly good for some good fishing circumstances.

My final journey was yesterday on my 47ft Viking and being a 4 hour journey with new anglers we went for the trolling choice and did very effectively. I began my crew off with some kingfish on the reef then we moved out to the colour change to attempt for sails and enjoyable fish. The enjoyable fish had been massive sized bonito protecting the kids I had on board lifting and reeling. Bonito make nice strip bait so this was a double win. Because the day progressed we acquired smashed by a stable tuna and misplaced it behind the boat. Our first sail of the day was an actual dangerous ass. He smashed our sluggish trolled quick pure ballyhoo out of the rigger clip, Garrett dropped again thrice lastly sealing the take care of that man. One of many teenagers on my boat faught him for a stable 20 minute earlier than the discharge. A very good sized fish. We had a second sailfish hit and he managed to dump the hook.

So all in all of the sailfishing has been good with a mixture of tuna, bonito the occasional wahoo and a few mahi right here in the previous few days deep sea fishing Key West.

Bait is just a little scarce for some so it’s a toss of the coin whether or not you wish to stay bait it or troll. I often depart it as much as the shoppers because the stay bait factor could be a bit time consuming and the trolling choice these days has been fairly robust for us. Plus there are some mahi offshore a bit which are simply itching to eat one thing.
