Fishing in Key West: From the Flats to the Deep Blue

May 4, 2018, 11:45:08 AM / by Key West Express posted in Water Activities, Outdoor, Fishing, Sports, Information

0 Comments

Some places happen to have good fishing. In Key West, fishing is part of the island’s personality.

Walk around the Historic Seaport early in the morning and you will see captains loading bait, anglers carrying rods and boats slipping away from the docks. A few hours later, those same boats return with stories—some about the fish they landed and plenty about the one that got away.

That's the fun of fishing in Key West. You can stalk bonefish across glassy flats, drop a line near a busy reef or head offshore in search of something big enough to make the reel scream. You don't have to be an expert, either. Pick the right trip, listen to your captain and prepare to get hooked.

Held each spring, this five-day celebration brings songwriters, performers and music fans together throughout Key West for something very different from a traditional music festival.
