Fishin Mission Offshore Charters invites you to experience the stunning waters of Islamorada. Captain Donald will be your guide, bringing aboard their professional experience.

You're likely to go after Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Mutton Snapper, Red Snapper, Gag Grouper, Cobia, Wahoo, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Amberjack, Bull Shark, Blacktip Shark, and more with any luck.

Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself spinning, trolling, drifting, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

Capt. Donald runs a 28' Center console with capacity for 4 passengers. It has downriggers, everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.

You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you. Live bait is included, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for some fishing! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

It's always wise to bring sunscreen (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

    Such fun

    Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM on November 13, 2026 • 3 adults

    Have always wanted to go out in open waters to fish. Capt Don did a great job getting the fish to bite. Would have liked to have more options of rods as these were not set up for right hand reel so it made it very difficult to reel with left hand. We did catch several yellow tail beauties. Wish we could have cought a variety of fish and gone for more of a boat ride. But it was fun to bring in a few fish and spend time with family making memories. Thanks captain Don enjoyed our time out on the water.

    Full day trip with Captain Don

    Full Day Trip on February 17, 2023 • 4 adults

    The expierence was great! We caught some nice yellowtails , jacks, an amberjack, a small bonito , and a king mackerel!!! The captain was great- while heading to the fishing spot captain Donald played some music from his JBL ,which was a cool feature because we dont see that often while fishing. Besides the fact that we caught some cool fish , we saw beutiful wildlife like a sea turtle , a spanish man o war jellyfish or flying fish wich was great in my opinion. I totally recommend this charter to anyone who likes to just hang out and fish with a relaxed captain. Looking forward to book Fishin Mission during our next stay in Florida Keys! Thank you Captain

    Captain Donald was very knowledgeable, we got very large fish as soon as we got there; unfortunately my wife and daughter got sea sick and we had to return but he took me back alone to continue fishing. Thank you very much Cap.

I have always loved fishing. I grew up in Ohio, fishing for Smallmouth Bass and Walleye. When I got older, I've spent 6 years as a U.S. Marine and fished in North Carolina and southern California. I moved to Islamorada in 1986 when my enlistment was over.
