The big mahi are moving in and the seas have been calming down. On a recent trip into the atlantic we caught an assortment of fish. from small to large mahi, bonito and sailfish. This is a great time to fish the waters of the lower keys, as the large mahi are starting to migrate through our area. So make your plans with us to create memories for you and your family. In the meantime enjoy these pics from a recent trip.

Summer is coming early to sunny Key West and with the heat come the mahi mahi. We have been experiencing great catches of mahi along with sailfish, tuna kingfish and wahoo.

Conch Charters we are the largest offshore fishing business in Key West, and many of our captains have over 40 years experience fishing the bountifull Key West waters.

Happy easter everyone. Please keep in mind after the easter bunny is gone and the eggs have been counted. After the choclate has been eaten and the belly has been made full. Keep in mind that the world considers this a holy day, and no matter what your beliefs, most of us believe in a higher being. We also believe that he is good and he wants us to do good and be good. If we could all walk through life with that simple mantra, the world would be a better place. On this holy day remember that love is our most powerfull ally as well as our most powerfull weapon. Take a moment to say a prayer for humanity GOD knows we need it. In the meantime enjoy your day and and if you are not in Key West right now you need to get hear. The Temperature is warm, the beer is cold, the people are friendly and the fishing is.....well take a look

March has come in like a lion, heavy winds have been the norm **hidden content** fishermen take that as an uncomfortable but great sign of an outstanding spring run of sailfish, cobia, tuna and large hammerhead sharks. If you are fishing in march look for that hard color change where the gulfstream meets the the cloudier inshore water creating a dark blue to lighter blue green line. This hard line of contrasting water becomes the migratory highway, and it is not uncommon to see sailfish in great numbers pouring through in small groups. So come on down look up Capt. Conch Charters, and our experienced crews will help you create memories of a lifetime.

Key West fishing has been red hot on the reef this week. The ballyhoo are moving in on our shallow reefs in huge numbers, and with them the predators are sure to follow. We have been catching barracuda, cero mackerel , kingfish, and sailfish. Picture this - we are nearing the reef and in the distance we can see the frigate birds diving and circling near a low water reef. As we approach we can see the ballyhoo being driven out of the water in wave after wave, and the frigate birds diving to the water to pick the tasty morsels right out of the air. Underneath, the predators await the inevitable splash of their prey returning to the water. Nearer still, we can now make out the cobalt blue form of the sailfish as he rises from the depth to feed. There is no greater thrill in the fishing world than seeing a group of sailfish feeding on the reef. Because they are feeding in 5 to 20 feet of water you can watch as they dart around setting up their prey for the attack. First, light blue as they try to blend in with there surroundings. Then, cobalt blue as they rise from the depth, their sail raised high, they now corral the bait and move in for the kill. The first thing to know is you better have live ballyhoo ready to go - they will not look at anything else when they are in this kind of frenzy. The next thing to know is to be aggressive, this is one of the most intense types of fishing you can do on the reef. These fish are moving fast and you must be ready to react quickly. Please book with us. Let us entertain you.
