Catch and Cruise Adventures is here to show you the stunning waters of the Florida Keys, Marathon, FL. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Dave and Captain Duane can tell you all about the local fishery.

Gag Grouper, Black Grouper, Mangrove Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Black Seabass, Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, Blacktip Shark, Bull Shark, Lemon Shark, Tiger Shark, Mahi, Tuna, Swordfish, and more can be found in these waters, depending on the time of year. On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. 

Your vessel for the day is a 48’ Offshore sport fishing with a capacity for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers and all the essentials. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. There’s no need to buy a fishing license. Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain.

Are you looking for a day cruise, without fishing?  We can do that too! Come enjoy the beautiful Atlantic Ocean with a spectacular view of the Florida Keys.

It’s recommended to bring sunglasses, a hat for shade, sunblock (non-spray), and necessary medications. Please bring along any snacks and drinks you might like; water will be provided. Beer is allowed in moderation, but please avoid glass bottles for your safety.

Catch and Cruise Adventures will make it easy for you to go fishing in the Keys. So, how about booking that trip?

Originally from Long Island, New York, I've been casting my fishing line in the Sunshine State for nearly 30 years. I've explored fishing grounds all the way from Canada to Texas, even venturing as far as Puerto Rico. Yet, the waters of Florida have become my cherished home.
