Capt. Jose Rodriguez | Swordfish 

Welcome aboard Above & Below Fishing Adventures, a premier private fishing charter serving Key West, Stock Island, Cudjoe Key, and the Lower Florida Keys.

Captain Jose Rodriguez is a Florida Keys native, swordfish specialist, and owner of Above & Below Fishing Adventures. Raised on the water and mentored by a lifelong commercial fisherman, Captain Jose has spent his life learning the reefs, wrecks, offshore grounds, and deep-water fisheries that make the Florida Keys famous.

Known for landing a 480-pound swordfish, one of the largest caught in the Lower Florida Keys, Captain Jose has earned recognition as one of the region's emerging swordfish experts. His specialty is daytime swordfishing, targeting trophy swordfish in depths from 600 to 1,600 feet.

We also offer offshore fishing charters for mahi mahi, tuna, wahoo, sailfish, and kingfish, along with reef and wreck fishing trips targeting yellowtail snapper, mutton snapper, mangrove snapper, grouper, hogfish, and more. Seasonal lobster charters are also available.

Fish aboard a new 2025 32' SeaVee powered by twin Mercury 300s and equipped with Simrad electronics, Starlink WiFi, LP Electric Reels, premium tackle, and a private restroom.

Every trip is private and customized for up to 6 guests. Whether you're chasing a bucket-list swordfish or planning a family fishing adventure, Captain Jose is committed to delivering a safe, professional, and unforgettable Florida Keys fishing experience.
