Salty Morada Charters

The meeting point is 90507 Old Hwy Tavernier

Explore the waters of the Florida Keys and enjoy a fun-packed day full of fishing. Captain Kevin White will meet you in Islamorada and take you to the area’s inshore, nearshore, or offshore waters and see that you have a successful fishing trip. You’ll have lots of fun chasing first-class species that inhabit the area in large numbers. Pick a day and join Salty Morada Charters for a fishing adventure you won’t soon forget!

The boat you’ll be using can safely carry up to 6 guests. This 30’ Jupiter center console is powered by twin 250 HP Yamaha engines and equipped with modern navigation electronics that include GPS, a fishfinder, and a VHF radio. The boat comes with a in console toilet and a shower and is equipped with a livewell, outriggers, and downriggers.

The boat is equiped with XM Weather Satellite and radar for weather awareness and safety, as well as XM radio and an amazing sound system.

On your trip, you’ll be fishing for Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Blackfin Tuna, Yellowtail Snapper, Kingfish, Mangrove Snapper, and Wahoo. The techniques you can expect to use to catch them include light and heavy tackle, deep sea fishing, trolling, spinning, jigging, and drift fishing. Feel free to keep your catch.

The captain provides you with fishing gear, catch cleaning, and licenses. Bring nothing but the snacks and drinks of your choice. Also, kids are more than welcome to come aboard, so bring them along and enjoy a wonderful family day on the water.

Please let me know the ages of the kiddos joing us as I need to ensure the proper life jacket size! Fla regulations require that children under the age of 6 must wear a life jacket at all times.

Salty Morada Charters is waiting for you!
