Cayman Trench
Fun Facts
Fishing in Jamaica is world-class due in part to the presence of the Cayman Trench that extends from the Windward Passage at the southeastern tip of Cuba toward Guatemala. At about half a mile off the coast of Montego Bay and runs along the coast, the drop off begins, starting at about 400 feet and gradually sloping down to 3000 feet further offshore. The relatively narrow trough trends east-northeast to west-southwest and has a maximum depth of 25,216 feet (7,686 m), the deepest point in the Caribbean Sea. This area is teeming with sea life as nutrients are carried up the wall from the abyss to make the waters uncommonly rich for tropical seas.
The Cayman Trench creates conditions of one to two knots of consistent current which helps clump together seaweed to form "weed lines"- these are every offshore angler’s dream. Heavy rainfall also erodes riverbanks causing trees and other debris to drift out to sea. This floating matter attracts baitfish and tripletail sea bass seeking shelter from the sun, which in turn attracts bigger fish. Entire ecosystems exist under these weed lines which can spread out for miles and contain all manner of sea life, including large numbers of game fish. During the summer months when the wind is fairly calm and the sea is relatively flat the weed lines get bigger, which therefore means more marine activity beneath the surface.
In the world of sports fishing around Jamaica you have the opertunity to reel in a blue marlin, yellow fin tuna, barracuda, mahi mahi or any of the species listed below all year round but some months are more productive than other.
