Key West is blessed with coral reef, the Gulf of Mexico, miles of flats surrounding the island, and even more miles of back country for excellent fishing. To help you navigate these excellent fishing grounds and reel in fish, your Key West fishing guide is there to make your day of fishing nothing short of awesome. When you charter a boat and hire a Key West fishing guide, you’re increasing your chances of having the best day you’ve ever had fishing, by about one hundred percent!

You see, your Key West fishing guide brings with him or her years, sometimes decades of experience with the waters around Key West. They know where to go, how to fish the spots, and when to go. On top of that, there are weather patterns, tidal charts, the ever-changing Gulf Stream location and seasonal factors to consider too, and only an experienced Key West fishing guide knows how to put all this information together and make the perfect day of fishing.

A Key West fishing guide has knowledge of these environmental factors, and mixes it with fishing instincts honed over the years. Add a touch of local fishing lore passed down from older generations of Key West fishing guides and you’ve got some of the finest fishing guides in the world, ready to take you fishing!

There’s nothing like spending the day on a Key West fishing boat, targeting salt water sport fish. The fishing down here is excellent, and the city docks are bursting with every type of Key West fishing boat you could imagine, to suit every need and desire. Especially impressive are offshore fishing boats, equipped for big game fish and running long distances. They go out for private charter, half day full day or a three quarter day, to fit your schedule. Talk to the crew beforehand, ask questions, learn about their charters. If you have your heart set on fishing mahi mahi, then let it be known!

Any Key West fishing boat that’s for hire as a private charter, and that’s most of the boats you see at Garrison Bight and many at Historic Seaport, will take you out for a day that’s different from your average Key West party boat fishing trip. With the party boats, you will go as far as the reef, or a little beyond it. You’ll be fishing with a large group, and the mate will help you with your lines. A private Key West fishing boat is an entirely different experience. You’re paying for a private trip, so the captain and the mate are at your disposal, and they’ll take you wherever they need to go, no matter how far, to get you your fish. A private Key West fishing boat is going to work harder for you for an amazing day of salt water fishing.
