There's a fish with your name on it in Islamorada and Makaira Fish Company will help you catch it! Fantastic boats right here in Islamorada, the Sportfishing Capital of the World.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Permit, Bonefish, Bull Shark, Tarpon, Snook, Lemon Shark, Cero Mackerel, Mutton Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Speckled Trout, and plenty more. On the day of your trip, you're likely to jig using light tackle. Your captain also offers fly fishing, and the fly gear is included.

Your excursion begins aboard a 24' Yellowfin CE with a tower, that holds up to 4 passengers. Rods, reels, and tackle are ready for you, 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. Trips with Makaira Fish Company are kid-friendly.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Don't leave home without snacks, sunglasses, a hat, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.

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

3/4 Day Trip on March 20, 20241 adult

Being an avid fisherman with decades of experience on the Great Lakes and numerous trips to the gulf near Pine Island . This being my second trip to the Keys in just 4weeks , I couldn’t have been luckier being paired up with Captain Brain! I said I wanted to have a tug of war with some large fish and boy did he deliver!!! My biggest ever!!! I felt at home on the boat , had an amazing time!
