If you're up for a memorable fishing experience down in the Florida Keys with your family, True Island Adventures is waiting for you! Join Captain Brett for a cruise out of Islamorada, and he'll do his best to make your angling dreams come true. Even if you're a novice angler, you can count on him to lend a helping hand. He offers a family friendly, fun fishing, catch and release trip which lets you dip your toes into the highly addictive world of fishing. Additional experiences are also available through his website for more 'seasoned' anglers as well. Once you catch the bug, you'll be back for more!

The Keys give you a lot of freedom when it comes to the fish you want to catch. The inshore waters are great if you're interested in the likes of Seatrout, Snapper, Jack Crevalle and various species of Shark! You just never know what you'll catch in this amazing marine sanctuary.

Rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the given price of a trip, along with all the fishing licenses you'll need. All that's left for you to do is pack some drinks or snacks if you're so inclined, put on a pair of polarized sunglasses, and get ready to make some memories!

Great in the Gulf

Half Day Charter on December 27, 2025 • 2 adults

Capt'n Brett putt us in the right spot early based on the weather, wind and tide.  He is an Islamorada native, so he know the way around the backcountry.  We caught a ton of species, but took home a lot of Spanish Mackerel and snapper for a great late lunch.  Mission accomplished.  He did a great job and was a pleasure for my son and I on the boat...just a great guy.   I would do it again tomorrow.

Good time with Captain Brett

3/4 Day Charter on April 9, 2024 • 4 adults

Took my sister and brother-in-law out for their first ocean fishing experience. Captain Brett was patient in teaching them how to fish, especially given the wind we were challenged with. I was hoping for a Tarpon to give them the ultimate lesson, and while Brett took us to a place we saw them, no luck on getting one to bite. We did catch a few nice size shark and barracuda, and plenty of action on some smaller fish to end the day. I would definitely recommend him.

Great Morning in the Back Country

Half Day Charter on May 6, 2025 • 1 adult

I am a novice fisherman and Brett made this a fun learning experience.  I thoroughly enjoyed the time in the back country and will repeat on a future trip.

Good for practicing fishing

Half Day Charter on January 3, 2025 • 3 adults

We were hoping to catch something we could take home. This was discussed in advance with the caption. Although we caught lots of fish, none were big enough to keep, or none that would have made for good eating. So good for practice only.

Thank you for your review. I thoroughly enjoyed having your family on board. On a less than ideal morning, north wind at 20kts and water and air temps in the upper 60’s, we managed to catch roughly 100 fish in 4hrs in 4 different locations. That’s a win in my book! Captains can’t control the weather, nor can we choose which fish bite the hook. We do our best with the situation presented and hope our clients have an enjoyable experience.
