Key West Charter Boats - Fishing Key West, Florida

Key West, Florida might be the best place in the world to plan a saltwater fishing trip.

Florida, FL (prHWY.com) June 4, 2012 - Key West, Florida, June 04, 2012 - Key West, Florida might be the best place in the world to plan a saltwater fishing trip. While there are many exotic destinations in the Caribbean that are worthy of being mentioned, Key West stands out because of its warm climate, excellent fishing options and because of how the town is built for tourism.

Key West Charter Boats - If you visit here during the winter, you can escape the colder climates of the north and enjoy the beautiful weather here. If you visit this area during the summer, it will be hot, but fishing is still very good throughout the mornings and most fishermen are off the water by the time it gets very hot. As far as the fishing goes, there really are so many options. The best way to have a successful fishing trip in Key West is to hire a fishing charter. Even if you have your own boat or you rent a boat, hire a charter the first day you are there and learn what spots hold fish. Try to remember the exact spots that hold fish as well as finding out why fish are in those spots. Ask the charters some good questions to learn more about why the fish are there. Are fish coming onto the flats to feed during a high tide? Is the bite better during a falling tide? Are they feeding on crabs, shrimp or bait fish?


The Florida Keys chain of islands flow south and west from the Miami area of Florida. The waters surrounding the islands provide many types of habitat for fish. Flats, or shallow water areas, surround many of the islands and extend into Florida Bay and the Everglades. To the west of Key West also lies one of the only atolls in North America, the Marquesas. This area of flats surrounding the Marquesas is 3 miles wide and has been referred to as "the golden donut" by famous author, Jeffrey Cardenas. The Marquesas is a magical place where tarpon, bonefish and permit feed daily on the flats. There is more life here at this atoll, just 22 miles from Key West Harbor, than in many of the other areas of the backcountry of the Lower Keys.


Because it is separated from other points of land by 8 miles of brutally rough water, the Boca Grande Channel. This shallow but wide channel feeds water from the Atlantic to the Gulf and on any given day can be brutal to cross in a small boat. Anglers find this place to be most promising on days during the annual tarpon migration while slow summer days you may have the whole atoll to yourself.

By asking some quality questions, you can learn more about why you are catching fish in that spot and it will help you when you venture out on your own. If you have the budget to plan a few guide trips while you are there, go ahead and do it. You won't be disappointed. You can experience some outstanding flats fishing for tarpon, permit and bonefish or fish the backcountry for a variety of species such as tarpon, permit, snapper and barracuda. The backcountry offers some beautiful sights as well. You can also fish offshore by trolling or targeting the reefs and wrecks.
