While folks up north are watching the thermometer drop, we’re down here in Stuart watching our fishing opportunities soar! Winter isn’t just sailfish season – it’s prime time for an incredible variety of offshore species that’ll have you planning your next trip before the first one’s even over.
The Winter Lineup
When you hop aboard one of our deep sea fishing charters, you’re in for a treat. Winter brings us a spectacular mix of resident and migratory species:
- Majestic sailfish on their annual migration
- Hard-fighting wahoo screaming through the depths
- Tasty mahi-mahi lighting up the water with their electric colors
- Blackfin tuna for those sushi lovers
- Grouper and snapper for the dinner table
Finding the Hot Spots
Captain Glenn has spent decades learning every nook and cranny of Stuart’s offshore waters. We know exactly where these fish like to hang out:
- The edges of the Gulf Stream for pelagics
- Deep reef structures for bottom species
