2/12/16 February offshore fishing report

 | By Seamus on 2/12/2016 4:11:14 PM | Views (442)

We've had some very nice weather here the last few days while fishing in Islamorada in February 2016. Pretty much all of the boats have been staying on the edge of the reef and most have been doing full day charters but a handful have been doing 1/2 day charters. The sailfishing hasn't been red hot, but there's been a handful around most days. The Reel McCoy won the poor girls sailfish tournament last week with 4 releases and the Cloud Nine took second with 3 releases. Most of the other days the boats that have put their time in fishing for sailfish have had 1 - 3 shots on full days, and the predator released 4 sails today.

We saw some really nice cobia caught by the boats inside the reef, a handful of fish close to 50 lbs! The king mackerel bite has been steady on the wrecks with fish raning from 5 - 20 lbs, and a couple of bigger ones over 30 lbs.

The Bn'M and Reel McCoy each had african pompano while wreck fishing this past week too. The boats anchoring down bottom fishing have caught yellowtail snapper, a couple mutton snapper, and quite a few porgy. February is one of our best months for cobia, so I'm sure we'll see some more nice fish hanging up soon. Give the marina a call when you're ready to book your trip and we'll set it up in the office. 1 800 742 7945
