Double Down Sportfishing

There’s a fish with your name on it in Key West and Double Down Sportfishing will help you catch it! Captain Brice will be your guide, giving you access to years of sportfishing experience.

Fishing around here will often see you targeting Sailfish, Blue Marlin, White Marlin, Swordfish, Mutton Snapper, Black Grouper, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, Blackfin Tuna, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Great Barracuda, and more. On the day of your trip, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light tackle. Capt. Brice can also show you kite fishing.

Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. And, you can’t go wrong with snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach!

Your trip begins aboard a 39’ Key West offshore sport fishing vessel with room for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, and all the essentials. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for some fishing! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more. Some essentials to bring are sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
