Techniques to catch these fish Catchalottafish Offshore Fishing Charters uses several different techniques to target these fish. We don’t like to spend all day trolling like many other charter boats, so we hunt the fish down and get our catch! This is one of the many HUGE advantages of a fast center console fishing boat. When it comes to offshore charter fishing, these types of boats can cover much more ground than the larger, slower boats. It makes all the difference in the world, especially on those slow days. Just to be clear, there are times that trolling is very effective and we will always use the best method for catching fish to ensure the best catch and the best experience for our customers! The “run-and-gun” technique The “Run-and-Gun” method is primarily used for catching Dolphin and is not only the best, but it yields the biggest fish. The best offshore fishing charters use the “Run-and-Gun” technique. When fishing in the keys with this type of fishing, you stand a really great chance at catching a monster. While executing this method of fishing, we cover the offshore waters looking for birds, weed lines, floating debris, and baitfish busting up the surface. Once we find this type of activity, it is only a matter of time before you are sight casting to the fish of your dreams. You will need to eat a big breakfast before coming aboard, because you are going to need all of the energy you can get! The kite fishing method Another technique that professional offshore fishing charters use while fishing offshore is kite fishing. This type of fishing is phenomenally exciting as well! We deploy either one or two fishing kites from the bow, stern, or both then release lines out from clips that leave live baits right on the surface. The bite is absolutely amazing, as you often actually see it happen right before your eyes! It is amazing to see.

What is Wreck Fishing? Wreck fishing in the Florida Keys is a unique type of fishing that anglers from all over the world come to experience. We have so many different wrecks in the Keys that the hardest part becomes deciding which ones we want to fish on any given day! Wreck fishing is where you will generally find the larger fish. The fish that have grown out of their adolescence and are no longer in need of their school. They are large, fast, and plenty capable of catching their own meal. They are also more than happy to give you a run for your money on rod and reel! However, the solitary fish aren’t the only ones that like the wrecks. There are several different types of fish that live around these massive structures that will gladly come up to the surface for a free meal. With wreck fishing, we will fish the bottom, or we will “live-chum” the fish to the surface. What to catch Wreck Fishing Usually we will have lines on the bottom to target the big Grouper and Mutton Snapper, while leaving out flat lines and kites to pick up King Mackerel, Wahoo, Sailfish or Barracuda. At the same time, we are tossing handfuls of live baits overboard bringing up the Amberjacks, Jack Crevalle, Blackfin Tunas, and Bonita from below. Once they are at the surface, we bait up the lines with the same live bait and the fun begins. This is a technique that is incredibly effective and offers up some of the most exciting fishing in the world. This is a truly addictive method of fishing! The Florida Keys are a Living Coral Reef The Florida Keys has one of the largest living coral reefs in the world! The beauty that the reef contains creates the perfect habitat for loads of fish! While fishing with Catchalottafish Charters, our guides will target fish such as Yellowtail Snapper, Grey (Mangrove) Snapper, Mutton Snapper, Mackerel, Sailfish, and huge Grouper. Actually, you can catch nearly every type of pelagic game fish in this same area! This is what makes Reef fishing so exciting! What to Expect when fishing..... You can catch many different types of fish in one day and be able to see them actually swimming right up next to the boat. It is an amazingly visual and exciting experience, but it can also be exhausting from reeling in all the fish you can handle. Although, you will never realize how exhausting it can be because you won’t have time to even think about being tired! There are several techniques used while fishing on the reef. One method is chumming with ground up fish, oats, and sand. While deploying the chum, we also will use a mixture of live baits to get the fish real excited. Once the chum is in the water, look out! It is an absolutely amazing sight to see the ocean come alive! It is definitely something you won’t ever forget so hold on and let Catchalottafish Charters take you on the adventure of a lifetime!

Islamorada Swordfishing, the ULTIMATE Florida Keys Fishing Charter... Swordfishing in the Florida Keys is absolutely amazing! Battling these true warriors of the open ocean is something that you will never forget! Swordfish are definitely one of the coolest fish we catch, and even the smaller ones can take an experienced angler for the ride of their life! While the majority of this fishing is done during the day, we are also equipped to be able to catch them at night. Night fishing was the original method we used for years; however, we learned how to catch them during the day. The largest of this species is generally caught during the day, and we also seem to get more bites, so this is the preferred method for us and most anglers. I guarantee you it is unlike anything you have ever experienced and is definitely something that every fisherman should experience at least once! Swordfishing in Islamorada We are very lucky here in Islamorada to have this fantastic fishery. We locate ourselves right in the middle of the “freeway” to catch these magnificent animals in their migratory pattern. The best part is that they are here all year long! We generally don’t fish as many days for these guys during the winter as we do in summer and fall due to the rough seas that are brought by cold fronts in the winter. However, when the winds stop, it is possible if the timing is right! Also, some of the best bites we have ever had have been during the winter months!
