Join Feelin' Fishy Charters on a Lower Florida Keys adventure of a lifetime in the pristine waters of the Keys. Captain Chris specializes in sight fishing with fly rods or spin. Whether you want to fish, snorkel, sandbar trips, lobster (when in season) or tiki hop, there's a trip for you here. Chris is an excited, knowledgeable, and easy going guide who is going to put in full effort to make your trip the best experience possible.

You will be fishing from a 18' Beavertail Mosquito built in 2019 and powered by a 60 HP Suzuki engine. The boat is very well maintained, has the latest GPS electronics, all the necessary USCG safety equipment, has an icebox and a live-well. This boat will get you into spots other boats can't reach and is sneaky silent while looking for fish.

While fishing in the backcountry you will be sight casting at fish which is one of the most exciting types of fishing on the planet. There is nothing quite like chasing Permit, Bonefish, Tarpon, or any other fish you may come across on flats. Chris will do his best to set you up with the best possible shots.

Don't worry about having to buy a fishing license, as all that will be covered. Water will be provided by the Captain as well.

Please bring food and other drinks you may want on the boat. A good pair of polarized sunglasses is highly recommended as well as rain gear. Sunscreen will be available but the captain suggests you bring your own.

Join Feelin' Fishy Charters and enjoy like never before!

Awesome Winter Fishing in the flats
Half Day Trip on December 30, 20252 adults

We booked this bonefishing charter in the Florida Keys with my teenage son, and it was an unforgettable experience. The captain was awesome—patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with teaching and encouraging a young angler. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, with crystal-clear flats and stunning views everywhere you looked. It was a must-do experience and something my son and I will be talking about for years.

Reported catch:
Bonefish
Great Barracuda

Full Day with Captain Chris
Full Day Trip on December 8, 20222 adults

Great local knowledge…. Covered a lot of ground to stay in some productive and favorable areas on windy day to have a great shot at Tarpon, Bonefish, Permit and Barracuda. Saw the all in good numbers. Great shot provided at each and we’ll equipped to get after them all. Since new to saltwater fly fishing I needed coaching and Chris was great guiding me through the nuances. Definitely will be back for more!

I decided to move to the Keys to pursue my passion of fly fishing and guiding on the flats. I have been an avid fisherman my entire life there is nothing quite like being on the water with friends and family. I love the connection it brings!
