Islamorada fishing report February parrotfish

The Islamorada fishing report for February was different , a few varieties of fish and some interesting conditions.

The water is getting cooler and we have been facing strong currents to the Northeast. The iunshore water has also been somewhat dirty. That slows down the reef fishing a little and it brings in more king mackerel. Every change seems to have a good and a bad side.

In the first week of February, we have seen mostly snappers and king mackerel. We caught a few sailfish, some grouper that we released and some parrotfish.

The reef has been tough lately. Hope the front coming in will improve things. The king mackerel has picked up and is now quite good. It keeps the rods bent.
