    Fishing The Florida Keys Region

    The Florida Keys Region

    Five apex predators. One title. Each region has its own set of five, chosen for the waters it belongs to — these are the Fyve of the Florida Keys.

    Tiger
    01 / 05
    The Striped Apex

    Tiger Shark

    Massive, prehistoric, unmistakable — the tiger shark is one of the ocean's most formidable hunters and the crown jewel of the Fyve.

    Hammerhead
    02 / 05
    The Living Legend

    Great Hammerhead

    A silhouette unlike anything else in the sea. Sight-fished, fast, and unforgettable — the hammerhead is the soul of this challenge.

    Bull
    03 / 05
    The Brawler

    Bull Shark

    Pound for pound the most powerful shark in the Atlantic. Aggressive runs, deep dives, and a fight you will feel for days.

    Lemon
    04 / 05
    The Golden Predator

    Lemon Shark

    Sun-bronzed, social, and surprisingly strong — the lemon shark patrols the flats and reef edges of the Keys with quiet authority.

    Mako
    05 / 05
    The Bluewater Bullet

    Mako Shark

    The fastest shark in the ocean. Acrobatic leaps, blistering runs, and offshore-only — the mako is the ultimate trophy of the Fyve.

    Beyond The Fyve
    +1
    The Final Hunt

    Sevengill Shark

    Shark Fyve Plus™

    Rare. Mysterious. Almost forgotten.

    Far beyond the traditional Shark Fyve™ lies one final challenge.

    The sevengill shark is one of the ocean's most unusual predators, carrying seven gill slits instead of the five found on most sharks. Historically reported in waters connected to the Florida Straits, Gulf region, and deep offshore environments, encounters with sevengills are exceptionally rare.

    Unlike the core Shark Fyve™ species, Shark Fyve Plus™ is not about numbers or certainty. It is about exploration, deep-water adventure, and the pursuit of a shark few anglers will ever encounter.

    For those willing to venture farther offshore and chase the unknown, the legend continues.

    For anglers who refuse to stop at five

    Legendary Bonus Species

    Shark Fyve Plus™

    The rarest encounter of all — a ghost in these waters.

    Every Shark Fyve™ region sets its own five. The Plus series belongs to the Florida Keys region alone — the legendary sharks known to pass through these waters, yet almost never seen.

    A legendary bonus species is the crown of that list. Migrating through the Gulf Stream and deep Atlantic corridors, these rare visitors have been documented off the Florida Keys — a presence confirmed by satellite tagging, research vessels, and the occasional breathtaking encounter far offshore.

    Landing one on rod and reel in these waters is the stuff of legend. The Shark Fyve Plus™ bonus species represents the ultimate rarity — not just for the Keys, but for any angler anywhere on the planet.

    Five is the challenge. Plus is the legend.

    For anglers who chase what others only dream of
