Capt. Conch Charters has been in business since 1994. Some of our crew members have over 30 years of experience. Some were born and raised in Key West. Our charter company is very versitile. We can guide you through most of the fishing techniques done in these bountiful waters.
It is very rare for the crew to go out fishing and come back empty-handed. Fortunately for them, they consider themselves the jacks of all trades of the fishing world and if one fish isn't biting they can generally go and target one that is. Their versatility allows them to be one of the top fish producers in Key West.
The crew members do not only pride themselves on being expert fishermen, but also great entertainers. They cannot promise that you will catch hundreds of fish (who can?), but they can promise that they will put 110 percent into showing you a good time.
You will be fishing aboard a roomy 40' offshore sportfishing Key West built boat. It features 4 fighting chairs, a dry salon area, a restroom, and an area up top where you can hang with the captain and listen to his fish stories. Don't worry if you don't know a lot about fishing – the crew is happy to cater to people who have never fished before.
All the fishing equipment you'll need will be provided for you, as well as live bait for the best bite. Target species include Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Sailfish, Marlin, Amberjack, Barracuda, Cobia, Grouper, and Mackerel. If you want to prepare a nice meal back home, the crew will be happy to clean and fillet your fish for your convenience.
Come on down and let Capt. Conch Charters to entertain you, not only with their expertise but also with their local knowledge of all things Key West!

We joined two trips with Captain Steve and Wahoo Will, and both were fantastic. We caught tuna on the first day and six mahi mahi on the second! Beyond the great fishing, what really stood out was Captain Steve's friendly personality and the interesting information he shared throughout the trip. Wahoo Will was nonstop from start to finish, hardworking, attentive, and always ready to help. A perfect Key West fishing experience. We’ll sure fish with them again!
We had an awesome 6 hour charter fishing trip aboard the Conchenstein with Capt. Ron and Roscoe. The water was calm, the fishing was great, and we landed a 36 inch barracuda along with some mackerel and several other types of fish. The crew treated us very well from start to finish and were informative, friendly, and clearly experienced. They worked hard to keep us on fish and made the entire trip enjoyable for everyone. Overall, it was a fantastic charter experience and we would absolutely recommend Capt. Ron and Roscoe to anyone looking to fish in the Keys.
Went out with Capt. Petey and Roscoe on the 29th Dec. We started out trolling inside the reef and caught a great amount of Spanish and Cero mackerel. Once we'd filled the cooler we headed outside the reef to slow troll for hopefully some snapper and grouper. We had a couple mutton just shy of keeper and some more mackerel. All in all a great charter, Roscoe didn't stop the whole trip, constantly working the rods and baiting up, we didn't have to do a thing except enjoy catching fish. Would definitely book again, and recommend to others!
went out on a full day fishing and landed a couple large amberjacks known as reef donkeys.they will wear your arms out and test your will.the first mate was very good and kept the lines clean of sargasm or seaweed that was making his day long but he never gave up and had fishing skills that he used that i have never seen before and he was relentless to get the fish on for us to wear our arms out. i am sorry that i forgot the first mates name but i highly recommend him.
My wife and I couldn’t have been more happy with our trip today! The Captain and his mate were extremely friendly and helpful! Thanks again for an awesome day!

I was born and raised in Key West, and started fishing with my grandfather at the tender age of 8 years old. My grandfather taught me how to fish, and instilled in me a great love and respect for the ocean. As I grew I knew that this is what I wanted to do with my life. As soon as I was able to shake my parents notion that one day I would head off to college, I began to fish in earnest. I started in the commercial industry trapping, diving, and hand lining. Though I enjoyed that life immensely I also enjoy showing people a good time, and showing off my craft. which led me into the charter boat industry. I went from first mate to owner of 4 charter boats at historical charterboat row. I have learned from the best in the industry, and have passed my knowledge onto my crews. I believe that all fishermen are show offs. They know that it is not easy to go fishing and actually catch fish, and that's what they do. Come on out and hang with our showoffs, I promise you will be entertained.
