Join Benchmark Sportfishing for an unforgettable fishing trip in Islamorada. Whether you’re a beginner or you already have lots of landed trophy fish, Captains Nick and Kevin will make sure you have a fun, safe, and efficient journey. With a crew this experienced and a bit of luck, you’ll catch the fish you always wanted.

It all starts on a 44’ Benchmark boat. Henriques yachts are known for being custom-built fishing boats for dedicated anglers. They’re tough boats designed to withstand all challenges of fishing in the Northeastern United States’ typically choppy waters. Benchmark’s fishing-first design has a large cockpit space for fishing, a well-appointed air-conditioned salon room with plenty of seats, and a full galley. To assist in getting you on the fish, the yacht is equipped with cutting-edge fish detection and navigational equipment.

With only minutes away from productive spots, you won’t have to wait for long to start casting. You can go after a variety of different species, such as Kingfish, Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and Sailfish. If you’d like something more family-friendly, visit reefs for Yellowtail Snapper and Barracuda.

All rods, reels, bait, and tackle are included in the price. The crew will also clean and package your catch. Make sure to bring your snacks and drinks as well.

What are you waiting for? Benchmark Sportfishing welcomes you aboard!

6 Hour Trip on July 13, 20252 adults2 children
Captain Nick and Mate Kyle were great. We went looking for Mahi. They were not biting that day. We saw a few come out but didn't take the bait. We did do some bottom fishing. We were able to catch snapper closer to shore. It was a lot of fun. We would do this again.

Captain nick was an all around solid guy. Chase some tuna for a little while. Then put us on the meat for some reef fishing. His boat is solid.He's great with the kids. All around ten out of ten ten ways to go fishing with him again.

The captain, crew and boat are the best for catching fish. Air conditioning is a plus for getting the relief out of the sun.
