Bringing In The ‘Silver King’ – Key West Fishing Charters
from:The Key West fishing charter has a number of options to choose from for a great experience. Key West is known as the Southernmost City in the continental United States being the home of Key West fishing charters. Many are quick to associate the region by its popular lodging, resorts, dining and waters that serve as a seaport for many large cruise ships.

The various captains of Key West fishing charters have vast knowledge of the region. They use this knowledge and also examine the tide conditions to establish the right path to catch Tarpon. Once the anchor is dropped the Tarpon are usually clearly visible in the often-calm glassy waters. Tarpon in the harbor can range in size from 60lb. to over an unbelievable 150lbs. Tarpon are amazing jumpers and once hooked and airborne their huge silver heads shake frantically with a jackhammer effect making them difficult to keep on the line.
