Explore an absolute fishing paradise with Billy B Charter Services! The crystal-clear waters of the Florida Keys are bountiful year round and they're a second home to your guide, Captain Billy. He's been catching fish in the area his whole life and helped hundreds of people do the same. Whether you're a seasoned pro or you're just getting accustomed to this sport, you're welcome to join.

It all starts on a 24' Ranger boat that accommodates up to 6 guests. This bay boat is powered by a 300 HP Yamaha engine and also features a remote trolling motor. Besides navigational electronics and safety gear, the boat also has dry storage for personal belongings and a cooler for your food and drinks.

The only decision you need to make is which trip to take. There are specialized trips that target only one species, such as Tarpon, which is a great option if you're ready to handle a hard fight. If you're here for the excitement, take a Shark trip instead. For anglers who value precision and patience above all, fly fishing trips are just what you need. Some of the species you can go after are Snook, Redfish, Trout, Snapper, Mackerel, and many more.

All you need to do is pack some snacks and drinks and be at the dock on time. Everything else is covered by the captain - your fishing licenses, rods, reels, lures, and even catch cleaning service. If you have any questions, feel free to get in touch with the captain in advance.

Catch the fish of a lifetime with Billy B Charter Services!

One of the best charters we’ve ever done
8 Hour Trip – Backcountry/Flats on March 14, 20264 adults
Everything was spectacular from start to finish. We caught a lot of fish, and he was always attentive to everyone on board, making sure each person had a great experience. What impressed us most was how well he managed to keep everyone happy, even though some of us were doing fly fishing while others were fishing conventionally. He really worked hard throughout the whole trip, paid attention to every detail, and made the experience enjoyable for everyone. We have done many fishing charters throughout our lives, and this is without a doubt one of the best we have ever experienced. On top of that, he is genuinely kind, friendly, and a pleasure to spend the day with. Highly recommended!

4 Hour Trip – Mixed Species - 2:00 PM on February 17, 20261 adult2 children
Our afternoon trip did not disappoint! My 8 and 11-year old boys kept Captain Billy on his toes, catching lots of Mackerel, a black tipped shark, a cobia, and a puffer fish. We really lucked put with almost non-stop action. We also had a visit from a Tiger shark! The ride out was worth the price of admission, alone. Thank yoy so much for the great afternoon! We took our catch to Lazy Days after for a great dinner. Thank you, Captain Billy, for the memorable experience! We will be back!

Billy B is the Man!
4 Hour Trip – Mixed Species on August 23, 20253 adults2 children
My family and I had a tremendous time with Captain Billy! He was everything you’d want in a fishing guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about what he does. He worked hard to put us on the fish even though conditions and the weather weren't optimal. The boat was clean, well-equipped and comfortable. He was great with our kids too, helping them out when needed and celebrating every catch. We caught a bunch of speckled trout and even hooked into a big grouper which was a blast! Whether you’re an experienced angler or just looking for a fun day on the water with your family, this trip is a must.

Best day catching!!
4 Hour Trip – Mixed Species on July 7, 20252 adults3 children
We went fishing with our three kids, ages 8, 4, and 2 1/2. Captain Billy was so patient and helpful with our kids so my husband and I could both fish. He did some of the casting for our 8 year old, he gave her fishing tips to help her be successful in catching her fill of trout. She caught a bunch of fish and she was “tired” of catching so many fish and needed a break. Captain Billy gave us options to how far of a ride we could do and what we could catch. After the charter, he cleaned our fish and recommended a local restaurant to go where they cooked it. He explained exactly what to order and what to tell the server!! (The restaurant was amazing too!) I would definitely recommend Captain Billy, he is the best around, is great with kids, and will put you on fish!
