Fishing in Cayman Islands
This Caribbean paradise may be better know for finance than fish, but Cayman Islands fishing has all the makings of a world-class day on the water. The island chain sits on the edge of the darkest depths of the Caribbean: the 20,000-foot Cayman Trench. Inshore reefs give way to blue waters within swimming distance of shore. You also have some amazing flats and mangroves, and unique water havens like Stingray City. There’s a lot to pack in on Cayman Islands fishing charters.
How you spend your trip will depend on which island you visit. Grand Cayman is the biggest of the three and has a lot more going on off the water. It also has the majority of the country’s charter boats. Little Cayman and Cayman Brac are much smaller and less populated. They both have some incredible flats and backcountry. Of course, all three islands are stunning, with white sandy beaches and crystal-clear seas. You really can't go wrong if you're looking for beauty.
Types of Fishing
The best thing about fishing in the Caymans is that you can enjoy fun flats action, productive reef fishing, and a serious bluewater bite, all in one day! Most charter captains give you the choice of where to fish. Here are the main ways you can spend your day.
Deep Sea Fishing
You can find Blue and White Marlin, Yellowfin and Blackfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, and Wahoo pretty much year-round in the Cayman Islands. The best bite is during the hot summer months, with everything except Wahoo hitting their peak in June and July. All three islands have reliable – although not enormous – deep sea fish within easy reach of a half day trip. Grand Cayman is your best bet for big game battles, simply because there are a lot more boats here.
Inshore Fishing
Bonefish and Tarpon are the main targets on flats fishing trips. Cayman Brac and Grand Cayman are best for bonefishing, but the mangroves and inland waters on all three islands hold lots of baby Tarpon. The only place you’re likely to see Silver Kings in the 50-100 lb range is on George Town’s waterfront, where they get fed by crowds of tourists. We’ve never tried fishing here, but we’re pretty sure it’s frowned upon. You also have Permit, Pompano, and Barracuda in the shallows throughout the country. The best time to target these fish is in the heat of summer when the winds are lower and the fish aren’t scared into deeper waters.
Reef Fishing
Inshore reefs straddle the line between the beach and bluewaters throughout the Cayman Islands. They’re home to year-round populations of Jack Crevalle, Mangrove, Mutton and Yellowtail Snapper, Triggerfish, and Nassau Grouper. You can also find some Goliath Grouper swimming around the shallower edges of the reefs. Reef fishing is a great way to switch things up on a full day trip. You can spend the morning battling Billfish, then hit the reefs on your way back to snorkel and catch some tasty bottom fish.
Fishing Techniques
The fish don’t get that big here. Blue Marlin average around 150 pounds and Tarpon rarely top 15 pounds in places you can actually catch them. Don’t let this put you off, though. It means you can enjoy incredible light and fly action for all your favorite fish. Trolling is the most common tactic offshore, while inshore anglers prefer light spinning or fly gear. On the reefs, you will either be jigging or bottom fishing, with the option to try traditional handline fishing, too.
Need to Know
You don’t need a fishing license on a registered Cayman fishing charter. You can also fish from shore without a license, but you have to release all your fish. Certain species, including Sharks, Rays, and Goliath Grouper, cannot be removed from the water under any circumstances. The Islands are an important spawning ground for Nassau Grouper. Because of this, it’s illegal to fish within a mile of any Designated Grouper Spawning Area from November 1st through March 31st. It’s also illegal to fish in any Wildlife Interaction Zone, such as the Sandbar or Stingray City.
During a single day in the Caymans, you can battle Blue Marlin, drop lines for Snappers, fly fish for Tarpon, and still have time to swim with Stingrays. Nowhere else in the Caribbean can you do so much on one trip. Captains here are happy to give you the reigns and let you decide how you spend your day. So jump aboard and take your pick!

What anglers said about fishing in Cayman Islands
We were lucky. The previous two days were bad for fishing. Summertime (off-season) isnโt the best time for fishing. You will have to be patient and hope that you have a great Captain like Andrew that just has that instinct to find them.

July is a bit slower fishing, so I'd research the best time of year to fish for a better bite. Be prepared with your own snacks if you are particular, and definitely bring a UV dri-fit fishing shirt and a hat to protect you from the sun.

In July- it was pretty hot, I suggest a boat with cover/shade. Most of the ride was calm but getting around the point had about 15 mins of rough waters- so if you get sickness- take Dramamine!!
If taking kids- lots of suncreen and try to find a boat with a bathroom and shade because the slow ride out can get brutal from the sun.
Overall- fishing was fun and got some good fish which we could recognize from prior snorkeling in the area.

Fishing in the caymans is terrific from the standpoint of you drop from 15ft to 1000ft in just a few minutes. You donโt travel far to get on large pelagic sea creatures.

May is a good month for fishing. The boat is comfortable with plenty of shade. Kids like to feed tarpon at the dock where the fish are cleaned. Sharks come in also. Good restaurants near the dock area. Finish a day of fishing with a good meal. Very accessible from the seven mile beach area.

Mission accomplished, plus the boat ride was fun and fast.

Lots of options; deep drop, reef, or blue water. Grand Cayman is unique in that it has access to the deepest water in the Caribbiean. Try to hit the tuna bite earlier than July to give you the best options for a big catch.

Put sunscreen on before you get in the boat and dont forget your legs. Water can get rough farther out so take the less drowsy dramamine.

Reef fishing is spectacular in Grand Cayman and you are all but assured bent rods and good eating. Mix that in with a trip to stingray city or snorkeling and it will make for an awesome day. We opted for an offshore trip and had a GREAT time. "Gunner" is an extremely well-equipped boat with the best tackle money can but (rare for a charter boat) with a top-notch crew that is both knowledgeable enough to impress an experienced angler and very kid-friendly. It is tough to find both.

Take a keen look at the winds and weather. Unusually strong winds of 20 knots prevented us from deep sea fishing, but nonetheless, had a great day of reef fishing with a good variety of fishing options... along with a final pull of a barracuda as we trolled back to harbor.

It was a hot day and fish were scarce; however Captain Bobby was persistent and put us on some fish. Enjoyed a good catch of some black fins and also snagged a skipjack.

We got skunked, but not for a lack of trying. Our Capt was awesome, and very personable as well. We tried multiple areas and different types of fish.
Like they say, a day fishing is better than a day at work.

Bobby was amazing. So much fun for our family of 4 with 2 girls aged 11 and 15. Fished a good portion of the morning and Bobby moved locations to make sure we had a chance to all catch something. He then brought us to a great snorkle spot to end the trip. Highly recommend Bobby!

My wife landed a 20lb wahoo and was thrilled. The fishing was slow on this one but Captain Bobby was a terrific guide and great conversation. Would fish with him again for sure.

This was our second time fishing with Captain Julz and Reelstik Charter and it was fantastic as usual. We caught 3 barracuda and a lovely grouper. Took a break in the middle and did a quick snorkel at Cheeseburger Reef which was loaded with fish. Julz and his mate were fun to chat with and have so much knowledge about fishing and the island in general. Boat is great too. Fishing with Reelstik is always the highlight of our trip! Highly recommend.

I told Bobby that we would like to get some fish to take back to our condo and we did! We got 2 medium size black fin tuna! Plus our 14 yo grandsonโs got to experience fishing, one caught 2 and the other got 2 huge bites.
Bobby provides snacks, water and Gatorade.
It was really fun. Only downside the inside of the boat gets wet.

I took my family on a half day deep sea trip. We landed this 15 pound mahi and one small cuda. Bobby did a great job all day trolling the area trying to find us fish. He changed lures numerous times trying to catch more fish. Bobby has a great attitude and made it a fun day for the family. We were on vacation so we took our catch to Morganโs restaurant where they made us a fantastic dinner of ceviche appetizers with grilled and blackened mahi. One of our most memorable family dinners.

Original trip looked like storms mid way through. He was able to honestly cancel the morning before trip to not cut trip short due to weather and worked with us to reschedule while we were still on the island. Highly recommend with how unpredictable the weather and conditions can be in Grand Cayman. Was able to put us on fish later in the week and extremely friendly and knowledgeable crew.

Great captain! Incredibly nice and accommodating. Picked us up right on the beach at 7 mile. 9th generation Caymanian so he knows the area and the history of Cayman! Caught two barracudas and a few tuna. Will return to capt Julz for future charters!

Captain Bobby took us out for a great day on the ocean. He is wise to the ways of the Ocean, and knowledgeable about the Grand Cayman as well. Great person to spend time with while waiting to catch fish.
Went to Morganโs for one of the best lunches of my life!
Thanks Bobby!
