Sailfish
Key Biscayne offers a fantastic opportunity to target sailfish, particularly during the winter months when they migrate closer to shore. The warm, clear waters and proximity to the Gulf Stream create ideal conditions. Focus your efforts on the edge of the reef, where the water drops off into deeper depths. Trolling with live bait, such as goggle-eyes or threadfin herring, is a highly effective technique. A kite fishing setup can also be productive, allowing you to present your bait in a natural and enticing manner. The key is to pay attention to water temperature and current, as sailfish tend to congregate in areas with optimal conditions. Several marinas along the Rickenbacker Causeway provide excellent access to the fishing grounds. Be prepared for a thrilling fight, as sailfish are known for their speed and acrobatic displays.
