Islamorada Backcountry & Offshore and Captain Jeff Beeler welcome you to some great fishing in Florida! He was born and raised in the Islamorada area and has got over 40 years of backcountry and offshore experience. His comfortable center console is great for small parties looking for a hands-on experience. He enjoys Tarpon fishing in the spring and summer months and sailfishing with kites in the fall and winter months. There isn't much you and he can't do or catch with this boat, so hop aboard and have a memorable time on the water.

You'll be fishing from a 25' Contender center console that can comfortably take up to 3 guests. It uses a 300 HP
Yamaha engine as well as all the modern GPS, fishfinder, and radio technology for quick and safe movement on the water. There's also a livewell to supply you with live bait and an ice-box to store your fish and drinks.

You can go after Mahi Mahi, Snapper, Blackfin Tuna, Blacktip Shark, Amberjack, Sailfish, Redfish, and many more. Using light tackle, you can catch by spinning, fly fishing, and even kite fishing. You're free to choose either to keep your catch and take it home or simply release it back into the water.

Captain Jeff takes care of all the fishing equipment you'll need as well as licenses. When the trip's over, he'll also clean and fillet your catch at no extra cost. Before you depart, just make sure you've got some snacks and drinks packed.

Come join Islamorada Backcountry & Offshore and experience a true fishing adventure!

fantastic day
Full day Mahi Fishing on June 2, 20262 adults

Great day. Topped off a morning crushing Mahis, with a fat Snowy and Albi on light tackle. First time in the Keys for my daughter and I, so Capt Jeff pointed us in the direction on some things to check out and a awesome restaurant that cooked up our catch. Had a blast, Capt Jeff is the man! High recommend, see you next time we’re in town my friend…thank you for making today a memorable one!

Reported catch:
Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)

Best morning ever
Half day - Fun Fishing on June 13, 20262 adults

Jeff was fantastic! The yellow tail were biting so fast they may as well have been jumping in the boat. Then we left there and tried our luck for something bigger Jeff put us on some snapper and we got one of those too! Definitely would book with Jeff Beeler again.

Reported catch:
Yellowtail Snapper

3/4 Day Trip – Reef and Patch on March 21, 20261 adult1 child

Me and my 12-year-old son went out with captain Jeff today. It was quite breezy, but he put us on the fish. Grouper, Cobia, snapper, yellowtail. Caught a bunch of everything, pretty much nonstop action the whole day. We lost count, but possiblly caught over 50 fish. Captain was very polite and personable. The boat was in great shape. Highly recommend as we will most likely be going out with him again next year.

Reported catch:

Great Trip
Full Day Everglades/Backcountry on June 10, 20262 adults

I went with Jeff as a christmas gift for my dad and had a great time. He was very welcoming and had some great dad jokes for the trip. The weather wasn’t the best, but he made sure we ended bringing home fish. He’s a great captain to choose from.
