Gone Fishing Charters is located in Key Largo and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.

Capt. Brian will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 4 to 8-hour trips, mainly fishing for Dolphin, Tarpon, Snapper, Sailfish, Wahoo, and King Mackerel, depending on the season and conditions on the day. On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as light tackle, heavy tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, big game fishing, and spinning.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 30’ Carolina Express boat that can safely take up to 4 anglers. This boat comes with a toilet and an ice-box.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. Your trip will include all the necessary fishing licenses for the day. The crew will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home at the end of the trip.

Captain John grew up close enough to walk to where he was able to enjoy all that the water and beaches had to offer. He had a boat before he had a car. Captain John always took friends fishing and got his captain's license in 2008. Fishing will always be fun for him and those he fishes with or who come to fish with any of his captains on his charter boats.
