Shipwrecks create an artificial reef system that attracts baitfish, which in turn draws larger predatory fish. The structure provides shelter and ambush points for big fish, making wrecks some of the most productive fishing spots in the Keys. We use heavier tackle and stronger leaders because these fish will test your equipment to the limit.
