Cowboy Cowgirl Sportfishing – Cowgirl II

Cowboy Charters has been guiding people to fish in the Florida Keys. These waters are famous worldwide for their unusually diverse game fishery, and with many boats at their disposal, they can offer inshore/offshore fishing trips to suit every type of angler.

Cowgirl II is a well-appointed 38’ Hatteras sport fishing boat equipped for light tackle fishing.  A very comfortable ride for groups of up to 6 people plus the crew. The boat features a head, as well as outriggers, downriggers, and lots of inside comfortable seating. With a large deck area, everyone will be able to get involved in the fishing action.

Captain is well known for his ability to put his guests on fish, whatever their prior experience. He and his first mate will guide you across the waters, providing all the know-how and equipment you need to catch species such as Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Marlin, Wahoo, and many more. Cowboy Cowgirl Sportfishing Charters’ trips usually involve a combination of trolling and bottom fishing, and you may be able to try kite fishing for Sailfish and other exciting pelagic fish when conditions allow.

    Deepwater shark fishing is an exciting way to experience the ocean's depts. Depending on the sharks you're targeting, you may want to choose either light or heavy tackle. Light tackle is best for smaller sharks and will give you a more challenging fight, while heavy tackle is more suitable for larger sharks. The structure is also important when Captain is considering the type of tackle to be used. Sharks on wrecks tend to be a bit larger than those inshore.
