Make some memories in Key Largo and go fishing with Westward Expeditions Flats Fishing. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Jake knows them forwards and back.

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Snook, Tarpon, Speckled Trout, Redfish, Black Drum, Largemouth Bass, Peacock Bass, Bonefish, Mangrove Snapper, Permit, and whatever else takes the bait.

For these species, you're likely to using light tackle. Capt. Jake also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.

The fish caught are yours to keep, provided they're legal to keep. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned. Talk about bang for your buck!

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Also remember to bring snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!

You'll be dropping lines from a 18' Flats boat with capacity for 2 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water.

Capt. Jake will supply rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

It's always wise to bring bottled water, sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks included on board.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that day dream into a reality, with Westward Expeditions Flats Fishing.

Awesome experience

My 14 year old and I had an awesome time with Jake. We used several methods of fishing (fly and spinning) and targeted several varieties of fish. We hooked up with some big fish and Jake was super helpful and accommodating. Would highly recommend.

Being born and raised around the surrounding waters of South Florida, it didn't long to catch the 'Fishing Bug'. From catching bass with my father ever since I could walk to poling a technical skiff in the beautiful waters of Biscayne bay, The Everglades, and the Upper Florida Keys, every trip hoists new opportunities and experiences that continue to fuel my passion and hope to pass and instill this incredible feeling to you!
