Come aboard Manicsportfishing and join Capt. Gregory Fabrizzi for an adventure that will see you exploring the plentiful waters of Marathon. FL Capt. Gregory prides himself on offering a charter that is based on relationships – there are no run-of-the-mill fishing trips here! No expense is spared to ensure that you’ll have a great day on the water.

Capt Greg Fabrizzi has been a captain for over 20 years. He has extensive knowledge of offshore and inshore fishing. The captain is based out of the Florida Keys because of its diverse fisheries, from the Gulf to Marathon humps and various local wrecks! Whether you want to battle hard-fighting Mahi Mahi, or go high speed trolling for Wahoo, the opportunities this diverse fishery offers are endless.

You’ll be heading out on your adventure in a 37’ Steiger Craft. She’s an impressively fast fishing machine that can accommodate up to 6 anglers. Onboard, you’ll find luxuries not a lot of boats in the area can offer, including heating, air conditioning, and a full electric toilet – you’ll be traveling in serious comfort and style! Guest safety is important to Capt. Gregory, so your vessel is fully equipped with a Viking liferaft, EPIRB, and other necessary safety and navigational gear.

The Florida Keys are home to some seriously impressive world-famous fish. If you’re looking for some first-class big game, get ready to target Mahi, Wahoo, Sailfish, Blackfin Tuna, and more. Want to reel in some monster species that will give you serious bragging rights? A variety of Sharks are on offer, including Mako, Bull, and Nurse.

You’ll be provided with top-notch gear for your trip, as well as a friendly and knowledgeable crew. When you’re back on shore, they’ll clean your catch for you. The first mate works for tips, so gratuity is very much appreciated.

Come aboard Manicsportfishing and experience Floridian fishing at its finest!

    This trip will target trophy Barracuda and all species of sharks in the area based upon the time of year. Most sharks are catch and release and if they cooperate will allow for some amazing video and pictures. Hook into any of these hard fighting, strength testing species and it will sure be a memory of a lifetime. A shark taxidermy mount or barracuda is available but it is best to let the Captain know ahead of time your intentions with the fish! Let’s start screaming drag. Price includes fuel

Captian Gregory Fabrizzi has been fishing his entire life. He's a New Jersey native who has been exploring the waters of the Florida Keys for the past 10 years, during the winter months. It's safe to say that he knows these waters like the back of his hand! He started his charter operation in New Jersey, but relocated to Florida due to the incredible and diverse fishery that is on offer. Greg is a proud father of three children and spends as much time as possible with his wife and children, both on and off the water. Whether you're a seasoned fisherman looking to reel in your trophy catch, or want to take your family on a truly memorable vacation, Capt. Gregory warmly welcomes you onboard. Manicsportfishing is available for tournaments and has a proven track record of tournament winnings.
