Marathon, FL, United States

Marathon has a fish with your name on it, so let Jersey Key help you catch it!

Blacktip Shark, Tarpon, Hammerhead Shark, Bull Shark, Jack Crevalle, and more can be found in these waters, depending on when you go.

For these species, you’re likely to spin using light tackle.

Your vessel for the day is a 26’ Center console with room for 4 passengers. It has outriggers and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.

Capt. Michael will supply rods and reels for you. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain.

Don’t forget to bring a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray).

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Jersey Key.

4 Hour – Tarpon (PM)

#1 in Tarpon Fishing

VERIFIED

Hats off to Captain Quinn on the 26ft Jersey Key in Key Marathon Florida. I caught my first Tarpon (on my bucket list) within 5 minutes of anchoring, and the action never stopped. My wife, I believe, caught the biggest Tarpon (hated to admit that), but the captain kept us both engaged at all times. We landed four Tarpon, I think ten got off...that's fishing. Also caught four lemon sharks. We had to drop anchor to chase down a monster shark for at least a mile and a half, either a bull or large lemon shark, but broke off after nearly 40 minutes of fighting. I thought it was awesome for him to film my fights when I handed him my 'Go Pro', now I have proof of my catches and no exaggerated fish tales. A trip I'll always brag about and highly recommend.

My wife and I went out with Quinn and he put us on a lot of fish . We had action all day , boated well over 40 and lost quite a few . Brought our limit of quality fish back and will definitely book with them again.

Son’s grad trip. He wanted to catch a shark…Done. I’ve had tarpon on my cash list and landed one about 100lbs. What a riot. Clean boat great guide hooked us up in less than favorable (15 mph winds) conditions.
