Flats Fever Key West 

If you’re going to cast a line in Key West, look no further than Flats Fever. Your guide for the day is Captain Rick, so you’ll benefit from 50 years of professional experience as a one boat, one captain operation.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Tarpon, Permit, Bonefish, Jack Crevalle, Cobia, Blacktip Shark, and whatever else is biting. On the day of your trip, you’re likely to spin using light tackle. Capt. Rick also offers fly fishing, all gear included.

Capt. Rick welcomes anglers of all ages, including kids, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. And, you can’t go wrong with snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach!

Your excursion begins aboard an 18’ Maverick flats boat with a capacity for 3 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

There’s no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain. It’s recommended to bring bottled water, sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that daydream into a reality, with Flats Fever.
