Charter Fishing Key West
Key West Fishing Charter
Florida is world famous for its fishing, and fishing in Key West is the ultimate Florida experience.
Imagine going home after your vacation…
And all your friends ask you:
“did you go fishing in Key West?”..
And you tell them:
“…No…”…
That would be unacceptable to us, and we won’t let it happen. Get in the boat… We’re going fishing!
Key West Charter Fishing
Reef Fishing ~ The 3rd largest barrier reef is right in our backyard! After a short boat ride, we can fish the reef and catch countless species of fish. Yellow Tail Snapper is a guest favorite to bring back and have for lunch. This location is dependent on both weather and sea conditions.
Backcountry Fishing ~ We love fishing in our back country! The water is shallow and calm. There are plenty of shipwrecks to fish, the mangrove snapper is plentiful, and the beautiful scenery is as unique as Key West, itself. This is a great option on windy days ~ All the benefits of great fishing with none of the sea sickness!
Offshore Fishing ~ Salty Soul Charters does not offer deeper water fishing charters. But, if you are looking to target more specific offshore fish like Mahi or Tuna, then we highly recommend checking out Far Out Fishing Charters and asking for Captain Kyle!
