Reef fishing

Fishing on reefs is fun for several reasons, but mainly because you are almost always guaranteed some form of action there. There are also a variety of ways you can catch fish from the reefs, from trolling lures over and around the reefs to bottom fishing, which usually involves dropping your bait directly onto the fish in the reef. Drift fishing can also produce good catches if you let your bait drift over the reef, covering more water than just bottom fishing. Perfect for the light tackle angler targeting jacks, snappers, rainbow runners and barracuda, to name a few

Knowing the waters

Knowing the waters you are fishing really pays off when you can go up and down the openings in reefs to find some of the larger concentrations of fish.

Snapper, grouper, amberjack, tuna and barracuda like to hang out around reefs. Fish often hang out in the reefs, but sometimes can be caught on the outer edges. If you’re interested in a really fun excursion, book a reef charter with a local captain; we guarantee you won’t regret it!
