Hey guys,
Headed to Key West with 4 buddies mid february. Just wondering if anyone has a recommendation for offshore charters out of Key West.
Never been before and looking for some guidance.
Thanks!

Anyone can catch a lot of fish when they're hungry . . . . My favorite days are the ones where the fish don't want to eat, but I make 'em do it anyway.

I don't know anything about charter fishing in Key West, but Islamorada, up the Keys a bit, is a fishing haven, with a Bass Pro Shop and tons of charter boats. You'll be able to find a captain that will suit you.

The wrecks off Key West are loaded with AJ,s. I was fishing in 160 ft. , live bait. Took less than a minute to hook up on each drop. I caught 4 from 20 to 50 lbs. Captain said we can do this all day , I said no  I was whipped , " lets go Tarpon fishing. " Mo
