![]() ![]() We could not recommend Brian more highly if you are heading to Key West, and are looking for someone who really understands the nuances of sport fishing in the Keys.Capt. We cannot wait for our next charter with Brian, and not simply because he is a great charter captain, but because it is so much fun spending a day on the water with him. Brian really knows how to connect with people, and my wife literally talks about her two days with Brian as if he’s related to us. He found us a quiet channel where my wife literally hooked a fish every couple of minutes for close to an hour. He also showed my wife how to fish the shallows for barracudas, and she caught two of them in less than 30 minutes! Knowing that we were relative beginners, and that we were less interested in trophy fishing, and more interested in the positive reinforcement one gains from “catching as many fish as possible”, he spent great care taking us to the shallow backcountry waters where he knew we’d catch our fill of snappers, jacks, and ladyfish. To say that this experience was the highlight of our week in Key West would be a gross understatement. "My wife and I are not very experienced at salt water fishing, but we were lucky to hook up with Brian for a couple of days of backwater fishing in the Keys last year.

Tarpon come up from the South on their yearly migration and stop through Key West before continuing the journey up both coasts of Florida. Tarpon Season starts some time in March with a slow trickle of eager fish making there way here. Depending on how cold it does get, we still may have some of the usual suspects like Tarpon and Bonefish. These fish include Jacks, Trout, Permit, Pompano, Bluefish, Mackeral, and many more. The fishing can be great with a mixed bag of species that are more cold tolerant than some. Saying "winter" in Key West can be a stretch. ![]()
