Key West Sailfish Tournament 2026

Key West Sailfish Tournament – March 26–28, 2026

Location: Key West Harbor
Style: Offshore, billfish release

Two weeks later, the energy shifts from silent stalking to full-throttle offshore chaos. The Key West Sailfish Tournament capitalizes on the spring Atlantic migration, when sailfish push into the Gulf Stream just miles from the reef. Teams run hard, live bait kite-fish, and watch for the unmistakable shower of sails charging baitballs. With releases coming in flurries, the leaderboard can flip in a single hour.

Why It’s a Signature Event:
Tight scoring, high adrenaline, and the deepwater camaraderie at the weigh station create an unmatched vibe. This is billfish fishing at its most accessible—no 50-mile runs, just steady action and serious prize money.

Get Tournament-Ready:
Practice on the same waters with deep sea fishing charters to dial in bite times and bait rigs before the competition begins.
