Good trip
Half Day Trip – Mix It Up on July 5, 20264 adults

We caught a mess of fish unfortunately only one was legal. The water was too warm. We were told up front that that might be the case. We had a great time anyway and would definitely go again in the future.

Reported catch:
Yellowtail Snapper

Great Family Day!
Half Day Trip – Mix It Up (PM) on January 2, 20265 adults

Our family had a wonderful time! We did 1/2 fishing and 1/2 snorkeling. Capt. Lori and Capt. Ricky know how to get on some fish! They are both extremely knowledgeable. They took us to an amazing snorkel spot that the kids raved about. This was one of our favorite things we did in the Keys!

Plenty of space for 4 kids and fish
Half Day Trip (PM) on December 29, 20254 adults2 children

Kids and I got to learn the finer techniques of yellowtail snapper fishing. 3 peraon limit and took extra time to clean and package the catch for us. Kids had a great time. Stayed anchored up over a chum slick and kept rotating the kids out as they were catching. Recommend for a kid fishing trip.

I grew up on the water and have been fishing since I was a little girl. I spent my summers in Destin fishing with family when I was a youngster. I have been fishing and lobstering in Marathon for over 15 years and have made Marathon my home!
