Spend the day with Makaira Fish Company and find out what the fishing in Islamorada is all about!
We typically fish for Mahi, Wahoo, Kingfish, Tuna, Sailfish, Grouper, Snapper, Sharks and more, depending on the season. On the day of your trip, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.
You will be fishing from a 33’ Tournament Sea Hunter center console that holds up to 6 passengers. It has outriggers and a tower, along with everything you need for a productive day on the water. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, along with bait. Live bait is available, please ask the captain whether you will be catching bait first thing in the morning.
If you are traveling with the family, kids are always welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available or bring your own that comfortably fit your child. The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including size and when you can keep them. If you don’t know what to expect, please ask the captain.
It’s never a bad idea to bring snacks, sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

3/4 Day Trip – Reef Offshore
Spent the Day with Capt. Mike fishing Islamorada. We told Mike we wanted to catch fish that we don't catch in Maryland. He did not disappoint us. Mike and his mate Mark were great and worked hard the entire day to catch us fish. We will be booking another trip with them the next time we visit The Florida Keys. Would certainly recommend these guys.

3/4 Day Trip – Reef Offshore
We had a great morning with Captain Mike and first mate, Chris. They are both very knowledgeable about the Keys and provided a chill and fun setting for my 12 and 9 year old boys. We really got into some yellow tails and mutton snapper…the boys arms were sore! Thank you guys for a wonderful experience. I highly recommend Captain Mike. His boat is awesome as well! The 33 foot Sea Hunter! Wow!

Great fishing trip with captain Mike Diaz and first ship mate Chris! My 3 boys and I had the best time with Mike and Chris. Put my boys on the fish and were very helpful with my boys. Chris was helpful and very patient with my son’s. What a great group of guys and I would definitely go fishing with them again!
