Running angling trips out of Big Pine Key, join Keys Boat Tours for a family-friendly outing to catch dinner and connect with nature.

Capt. Brian is on a mission to get you some fish. First, you’ll catch bait and then try different areas to bend the rods. Safety, fun, and catching dinner are the priorities! You’ll be using light tackle and various techniques, such as bottom fishing, depending on what you’re going after. As part of their 4-hour trips, you can target species like Snapper, Grouper, Cero Mackerel, Yellowtail Amberjack, and Bonito, depending on the current season and weather conditions.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 23’ Bulls Bay boat that can safely take up to 6 anglers. Everything you need is included in the price when it comes to rods, reels, and terminal tackle. You don’t need to worry about fishing licenses, as they will be provided and handled by the charter.

You’ll be able to keep any legal species caught during the trip, and catch cleaning and filleting are included. Bring your kids on for a fun fishing adventure, and make it a family trip! There will be bottled water and Gatorade onboard, but feel free to bring your favorite snacks and drinks if you want to.

Book your trip now and hit the water with Keys Boat Tours.
