I’ve been fishing the Key Largo area the last few weeks targeting Mahi and Yellowtails along with fishing some really cool reefs in 15-25ft.
The common way of catching Yellowtails is to chum in 50 to 90 ft. It’s very productive for the Yellowtails but there’s plenty of by catch to keep busy.
I fished with my nephew Andrew on the holiday, after catching a few Mahi’s we went into the 15 -25 reef and caught Groupers, Mangrove Snappers, Schoolmaster Snappers, 20lb. Cuda’s, Yellowjacks, Barjacks, and plenty of Grunts to keep kids busy. All of these fish we caught on “NO LIVE BAIT NEEDED” 3' in assorted colors.
We did get Mahi’s a couple days some in 106 ft and others while chumming in 79 ft., which was really cool.
The rest if the summer I will be between Flamingo and Key Largo. There are so many fish in those 2 spots all you have to is go.
Flamingo gets really good when its hot, if it 7 am and you are soaking wet from sweating, you are probably catching a bunch of fish.
If any thing I have written in this report gets your blood boiling give me a call at 305 333 8149.
Caught Lookin Charters is a family friendly charter.
