Mahi Mahi Fishing in the Key West, Florida Area
The gulf stream waters pass very close to the tip of Key West, which means it is a short run to waters that are home to Mahi Mahi year round. Late spring through early fall is the best time of year to consistently put these fish in the boat with some of the biggest fish being caught in May and June.
Mahi Mahi Fishing Tips
Trolling for mahi mahi is the most conventional way to catch these fish, but more and more anglers are sight fishing for mahi mahi. Because these fish are often found around large weed lines and many different types of floating debris, some anglers will go find these spots and chum these areas to see if they can attract some mahi mahi to the boat. This is very effective and if you hit it right, you could catch several mahi mahi very quickly in these situations.
