Stuart Florida Fishing Charters For Kingfish:
Lightning fast speeds, skyrocketing attacks with pin point accuracy, and razor sharp teeth are the basic characteristics of king mackerel. A dense, grayish, oily meet perfect to cut into steaks, loins, or cubes, kingfish gets rave reviews when prepared on the grill, fried, or smoked and used for fish dip. Kingfish school in large numbers and hang around bait schools, primarily near reefs, wrecks, and along beaches. With the right conditions, Stuart Fl. kingfish charters can offer lock and load action that will keep everyone one on their toes.
Averaging between 6 and 15 pounds, with 30 to 40 pound fish common, and boasting a Fl. state record of 90 lbs. Kingfish have earned their place as a highly sought after tournament fish. They can be found in all depths of water but are most commonly targeted along beaches shallow water reefs and ledges from 30 feet to 130 feet. Trolling subsurface baits or spoons off our Cannon TS10 down riggers or behind planners is an effective way to catch them, but live baiting and chumming while using the ultra lights can provide "four and five pole bendos" of quality drag screaming light tackle action.
While targeting kingfish during our Stuart Florida charters you are likely to encounter many other game fish. Everything likes the bait schools that the kings hang around and it's not uncommon to catch sailfish, cobia, bonita, dolphin, barracuda, and other bonus species while we target these awesome light tackle testers.
