Whether you're a seasoned angler or it's your first time wetting a line, get ready for an unforgettable 4 hours on the water.

What's Biting Today?

Picture this: You're out on the crystal clear flats surrounding Key West, rod in hand, waiting for that telltale tug. Suddenly, your line goes screaming off the reel. You've just hooked into a powerful shark, and the battle is on! Our experienced guides know exactly where these toothy critters like to hang out. We'll put you right in the action, whether we're chumming for bull sharks or sight-casting to lemon sharks cruising the shallows. And hey, if the tarpon are rolling, we might just switch gears and try to land you a silver king. It's all about making the most of what Mother Nature serves up each day.

Shark Fishing 101

Don't sweat it if you've never shark fished before - we've got you covered. We use heavy-duty tackle designed to handle these powerful fish, typically 50-80 lb class rods paired with large spinning or conventional reels. Our go-to bait? Fresh cut mullet or jack crevalle. We'll show you how to rig it up and present it just right. Sometimes we'll anchor up and chum, other times we'll actively search for sharks. It all depends on the conditions and where the bite is hot. One thing's for sure - when that shark takes off with your bait, hold on tight! These aren't your average fish, and the fight is half the fun.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Bonnethead Shark: Don't let their smaller size fool you - these guys put up a serious fight! Averaging 3-4 feet long, bonnetheads are like the bulldogs of the shark world. They love cruising in shallow water, making them perfect for sight fishing. Spring and summer are prime time to target these feisty sharks. Anglers love 'em because they're abundant and super active - you might even see them "tailing" like bonefish as they hunt for crabs in the shallows.

Lemon Shark: Now we're talking some serious size! Lemon sharks can grow up to 10 feet long, but the ones we typically catch are in the 6-8 foot range. These yellow-tinged predators are a blast to target on light tackle. They've got a nasty set of teeth, but don't worry - we'll handle all the close-up work. Lemons are most active in the warmer months and love hanging around mangrove areas. Landing one of these bad boys will definitely earn you some bragging rights back at the dock.

Bull Shark: If you're after the heavyweight champ of Key West sharks, the bull shark is your target. These brutes can top 500 pounds and put even experienced anglers to the test. Bulls are aggressive feeders and will hit just about anything that looks like an easy meal. We see them year-round, but fall and winter tend to be the best times to hook into a real monster. Just remember - bull sharks have serious power, so be ready for a workout when one takes your bait!

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Look, I've been guiding these waters for years, and there's nothing quite like the rush of shark fishing. It's not just about the size of these fish - it's the raw power, the primal thrill of going toe-to-toe with an apex predator. And the best part? You never know what you're gonna get. One day it might be non-stop action with school-sized lemons, the next you could be locked in an hour-long battle with a bull shark that'll make your arms feel like jelly. That unpredictability is what keeps folks coming back for more.
