Book your next trip with Blue Magic Charters and find out what makes the fishing in Marathon so unique. Capt. Alex Bell and Capt. Steve Steenstra are old school owner/operators that work hard to make the most of your fishing experience.

These waters are known for Sailfish, Mutton Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, Blackfin Tuna, Mangrove Snapper, Black Grouper, Swordfish, Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Wahoo, Tarpon, Cobia, Amberjack, and more - with any luck, it won't take long to hook into some.

The Blue Magic and the Blue Magic II are 32' Sportfish that can carry up to 6 passengers per boat. Tower boats for sight fishing. Spacious cockpit and lots of shade make for plenty of room and comfort. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. What's more, this vessel is semi wheelchair accessible.

Anglers off all skill levels will feel right at home. We will make sure you have all the techniques and tricks to be successful and have fun.

Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome!

We provide everything necessary on the fishing side, bring your own food drinks and anything you would need.

It's never a bad idea to bring sunblock (non-spray), sunglasses, snacks, and bottled water. Alcohol is fine, try not to bring glass beer bottles.
 
Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 20% tip is customary.

Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.
