Key West Fishing Report 2012 Wreck Reef

Posted on January 1, 2012 by DrCatcher

Grouper Fishing Key West

Wreck and Reef Report

Had a busy week last week working on the Grouper and snapper.. Along with them came some decent cobia shots as well on the shallower wrecks West of the Marquesas and into the Gulf of Mexico.

The cobia is a big draw this time of the year for many of my anglers as we have done so well on them in the years past. This year its a bit different with the warmer winter we have only seen handful of fish to sight cast to. Not to fret.. Old many winter is brewing up a good cold front for us to Chill things out a bit this week so the Cobia should be up and eating.

The Grouper and Snapper. We have been crushing the grouper all the way up to the 1st of 2012. The Atlantic Grouper season ends this week “today” as a matter of fact and now it is up to the Gulf of Mexico to produce those tasty fish. Again Read more »

Key West December Backcountry Fishing Report

Posted on December 17, 2011 by Kyle Kelso

Key West’s winter-time December backcountry fishery is incredible here at Dream Catcher Charters. The bite has been on fire as spontaneous light cold fronts pass us, cooling down our tropical waters. Its been a bit windy due to a high pressure established over the eastern seaboard. But, thats not stopping the fishing here in Key West…. We have run into many different species, including trout, pompano, jacks, mackerel, permit, ladyfish, redfish, and even the mysterious Key West snook to make a well rounded species hunt.

Key West Offshore Fishing Report December 2011

Key West Offshore Wreck and Reef Fishing

Yummy Mutton

Here at Dream Catcher Charters we have had some awesome trips offshore taking advantage of a strong bite and the last few months of Grouper season. Great times with bag limits of grouper and snapper well within reach of any angler. Size depends on how far West you would like to go.

We were about 40 miles out when we did real well a few days ago, before the front. Jigging for Grouper paid off in dividends with my anglers aboard my 32 ft Yellowfin “Intense” powered by twin Mercury 300 Verados. We had a wonderful day that the people were awesome too. A four person limit of black and Red Groupers 26″ and up to 32″. Mutton snappers around 9 lbs and largest was 12. Some nice yellowtail snappers up to 2 lbs and followed up by 4 and 5 lb mangrove snappers. A great day, a fun day.  Read more »
