Gulf of Mexico Wrecks Fishing Charters

The Gulf of Mexico's abundant shipwrecks may have tragic histories, but from a fishing standpoint, they're the best thing to happen since the coral reef! Large decades-old freighters resting on the floor of the Gulf make excellent structure for hundreds and hundreds of fish, which means great fishing for you! Key West Gulf of Mexico fishing charters take you to the best wreck spots for a full day of fishing and a lifetime of memories.

The Sturtevant wreck is just one of the spots we hit on our Key West Gulf of Mexico Fishing Charters. Our boats also make their way out to the Gunvoor wreck in 60 feet of water, the Edward Luckenbach, in 65 feet of water, and also the Bosiljka. Fish congregate at all these sites and numerous shrimp boat wrecks, which are smaller but also hold lots and lots of fish. The smaller fish are at the wrecks seeking shelter, and the large ones go there to hunt. Coolcast's Key West Gulf of Mexico fishing charters go there to hunt the bigger fish like Cobia, Goliath Grouper (catch and release, of course), and Mangrove Snapper. There are smaller jacks, Bluefish, Blue Runners, Gag Grouper, Permit, and Pompanos for you to get, as well.

While trying for Gag Grouper, you may instead catch lots of Goliath Grouper (formerly known as Jewfish). These amazingly huge fish are protected, and have actually made a comeback recently. That's why they are everywhere on the wrecks in the Gulf. But you won't be disappointed when you hook one- you're in for one heck of a fight!

Fishing the wrecks in the Gulf of Mexico is an excellent way to fish Key West. The captains, guides, and crew of Coolcast Charters will make your day extra exciting with their knowledge of the Gulf and their shared passion for salt water sport fishing.
