Ladies, Let's Go Fishing! Keys Saltwater Weekend
October 16 through 18, 2026. Calling all women anglers, from curious first-timers to seasoned pros! The award-winning Ladies, Let's Go Fishing! Keys Saltwater Weekend returns to Islamorada, the Sport Fishing Capital of the World, for three days of learning, fishing, and fun in a welcoming, no-pressure environment. Affectionately known as the "No-Yelling School of Fishing," this beloved event makes the sport approachable and enjoyable for everyone.
Hosted by the nonprofit Ladies, Let's Go Fishing Foundation, the weekend blends hands-on education with real time on the water. Friday kicks off with an evening networking social and fundraiser, a chance to meet fellow lady anglers and mingle in a relaxed, welcoming setting. Saturday brings a full day of educational sessions led by expert instructors, covering everything from offshore, inshore, and bottom fishing to tackle, knot-tying, conservation, and fishing basics.
The real adventure comes with optional guided fishing charters, where participants put their new skills to the test on the beautiful waters of the Florida Keys, competing in a fun, casual tournament with prizes and plenty of camaraderie. No equipment or experience is required, making it the perfect opportunity for women and families to discover the joy of fishing while promoting conservation and responsible angling.
Whether you are a Keys local or traveling in for the weekend, this is a wonderful way to build confidence, make new friends, and experience the thrill of fishing in one of the world's premier destinations.
