If you’re looking for a charter that can cater to both families with kids going out for the first time, as well as a group of experienced sea wolves looking to tick off a catch from their bucket list, Cowboy Charters has you covered. Their goal is for you to have an exciting, memorable, and fun-filled journey every time you leave the dock and come back with a huge smile!

Join the captain on board their 40’ flybridge, manufactured by the famous Luhrs company and restored in 2018. You can expect all the modern amenities and comforts on the “Irish Cowboy”. A full-head toilet, showers, and a bed are available so you can take a break from fighting the gorgeous fish. The Irish Cowboy hasn’t skimped on serious fishing equipment either, a flybridge, outriggers and downriggers, as well as a fighting chair, are all available on board to give you an added edge in getting that dream fish.

With Capt. Tim you will target a variety of excellent species in the area. Get ready to fight Blue and White Marlins, Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Kingfish, Groupers, Blackfin Tunas, Wahoos, Snappers, Tilefish, Sharks, and anything else you run into! You’ll get the chance to try out many different techniques, such as spinning, jigging, trolling, bottom fishing, or drift fishing with light and heavy tackle. For the adventurous anglers, kite fishing is also available, perfect for going after Marlins.

The first mate will assist you in any way possible, as well as clean and fillet your catch. Gratuity for the crew is appreciated, with 20% being the local norm. All required equipment will be supplied by the charter. There’s no minimum age for kids with Cowboy Charters and anglers of all ages and skill levels are invited to join them on an exciting offshore adventure!

Captian Chris and mate Will knew right where to go. They were dialed in to the fish and very knowledgeable about the waters. They put us on fish early and often on our 6hr charter. We caught so many mahi we told them to start throwing them back because we already had enough to eat. Will kept the baits fresh and worked the entire trip making sure the gear was ready for the big one. Which Capt. Chris found us in the last hour of the trip, a beautiful Key West sailfish! I would recommend this charter to anyone and will book again next time we are down.

These guys are so good at what they do!! We did not go fishing - we went CATCHING!! I can’t say enough about Captain Pel & 1st Mate John giving us the best experience and showing us all the fishing techniques!!! From departure to return, these guys have it down to an art and know where the fish are!! I can’t recommend them enough. If we come back, we know who we are calling!! Thanks Pel & John for the BEST fishing trip and sending us back to TX with a freezer full of fish!! True fishing masters!

Amazing Day with Cowgirl sports fishing charters
Half Day Trip (PM) on October 22, 2022
Incredible day out on the water! My daughter and I went off shore fishing there was some wind but the boat was big enough to handle to waves, the captain called it “sporty” and I must agree. I was so impressed that my 5 year daughter did not get sea sick. I think I’ll make this a yearly tradition! Thank you to the captain and mate for this pleasant experience. Key West has definitely been a bucket list vacation for me and it did not disappoint.
