In the keys, you will have endless possibilities of trophy fish such as wahoo, sailfish, amberjack, and kingfish. There are also plenty of places to fish in including, flats, open ocean, reefs, and mangroves.
2. Mississippi River Delta, Louisiana

3. Kenai Peninsula, Alaska
Freshwater fishing is a must in the Kenai River in Alaska. During the summer months, fishermen arrive from everywhere to catch King Salmon. You never know if you will be the next person to catch a 100-pound Chinook.

4. Hawaii
Kailua-Kona in Hawaii is another place that you want to add to your fishing bucket list. You don’t even have to go far to catch something like a Billfish because you can catch them right off the beach. There are plenty of Black Marlin, Tuna, Blue Marlin, Mahi Mahi, and Wahoo, just to name a few.
5. Prince Edward Island, Canada
