FUNYET Charters takes you fishing around the rich fisheries of Florida Keys. If you want to go fishing with a local seasoned captain and land a hefty catch, you're at the right spot. Capt. John will help turn your day into a lasting memory, no matter how experienced you are.

Aboard FUNYET Charters, you'll get to explore flats and backcountry waters and chase Bonefish, Permit, Redfish, Trout, Tarpon, Barracuda, Snook, and Jack Crevalle. Hop onboard and head to the nearshore reefs and wrecks and you'll have a chance to land Grouper, Amberjack, Cero Mackerel, Almaco Jack, and Snapper. Once you reach offshore fisheries, you'll test your skills against Sailfish, Mahi, Wahoo, King Mackerel, and Tuna.

Capt. John has been in the business for decades and has been a fisherman his whole life. He holds two degrees from the Florida Institute of Technology and is an avid diver with extensive experience.

You will find Capt. John at the helm of his 33' Ocean Master center console. She is powered by twin 300 HP Yamahas and can take up to six people. This boat will put you on right track and get you to the hotspots with ease. The boat also features a flybridge, a live well, an ice box, and Penn fishing equipment.

When you're packing for the trip, remember to bring a towel, sunscreen, a cap, sunglasses, food and drinks, and water to stay hydrated. It's also a good idea to pack rain gear just in case.

The captain will supply the fishing gear and the license, and sometimes you will stop by to collect live bait, but this depends on the style of fishing and the target species. While there are life jackets onboard, parents fishing with kids younger than six may want to bring their own life vests for more comfort.
Trips booked with more than 6 months in advance may be subject to a price increase due to changes in the fuel rates.

Invite your friends and get going. Trips with Capt. John are your gateway to some of the finest fishing in the Keys. Book your spot on time!

    Tarpon Fishing in Torch Key Fl.

    Tarpon - Evening on April 12, 2025 • 3 adults

    This trip was awesome, Captain John was great, he put us on a 115-120 lb. tarpon in the first hour. He was very knowledgeable about the area and marine life. Great experience, with a beautiful sunset to top off the day.

    6 Hour tour with Captain John

    3/4 Day Trip on March 19, 2022 • 5 adults

    Let me first say that my boys and I have hired dozens of charter captains all over the US. What I will say is Captain John is the best. We fished all week on our own for the typical inshore species and the boys wanted more excitement than light tackle fishing so we contacted Captain John and asked him if he could put us on some game fish. Specifically AJs and tuna. We caught a ton and lost some too. Captain John has a great rig and great gear and everything was flawless from the communication right down to the filet service Captain John does like he’s a chef in a fine restaurant. I fish a lot and understand that sometimes you don’t catch fish it just is what it is (obviously not this trip) but part of the journey of hiring a charter Captain is the knowledge and the personality of the Captain. Captain John is first class. He shares his experiences and he is a wealth of knowledge but more importantly, he’s just a good guy and a great guy to talk to. He’s patient with the less experienced angler and always happy to assist and share the tips he’s learned over decades of fishing the Keys. I look forward to booking with him the next time we visit.

    3/4 with captain john

    Half Day Trip on July 16, 2023 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Captain John is the real deal. His "let's get you guys some fish" is no joke. We tried several different ways and when they were biting he was elbow to elbow with us slinging fish. For sure a fun and memorable day as a belated fathers day adventure for my husband. Captain John is no frills....but his main goal is to find fish! Will call captain John again the next time we are in town.

    Best day ever!

    Half Day Trip on January 16, 2021 • 2 adults

    Wedding day. Birth of children. Fishing with FUN YET Charters. Yesterday was one of the most memorable days of my life. Captain John put us on some fish!! From arriving promptly to the dock right in front of the place we were staying, to letting us choose whether we wanted to try inland or reef fishing, to offering tips and advice about how to land the fish (without it coming off as “man-splaining”), everything was flawlessly executed and delivered beyond our expectations. We caught mutton snapper, yellowtail snapper, grouper (not in season), king mackerel, and even some sharks! To top it off, John cleaned the fish for us, and even joined us at a local restaurant (his girlfriend came too!) where they cooked the fish. It turned into a fun afternoon and now we have new friends who live in The Keys. A perfect experience for our annual “girls trip” worth every penny. Thank you FUN YET charters!

    The fishing was a little slow, but Mike made it happen. We all had a chance to catch some cool fish. Snapper, grouper, shark, etc. Fun times and memories made! He is very patient with kids and his willingness to accommodate was awesome. Can't wait for our next trip!

    Half day trip with Captain John

    Half Day Trip on October 29, 2021 • 4 adults

    Trip was postponed until Sunday due to weather. Once we went out Sunday morning, it was a great trip. The tides didn’t cooperate, and with the West winds, we knew the fish bite would be slow. Captain John stayed out a few extra hours due to this and we got it done. We caught enough fish for dinner that night. Captain John recommended a great restaurant that cooked up all our fillets. We will definitely book with him again when we go back to the Keys in 2022. We highly recommend him.

    The captain is very knowledgeable and accommodating. The captain has been fishing his entire life and knows exactly where to go and how to help make a great catch. He doesn’t allow bananas on his boat, ask him to tell the story. Have fun!
