Spend the day with Custom Cat Charters and get your family hooked on fishing in Marathon! We specialize in family fun!  Our boat is designed for family comfort. Plush seating, a huge dodger that makes shade for 12 people, and a large head, and shower to cool off.

Yellowtail Snapper, Black Grouper, Gag Grouper, Red Grouper, Goliath Grouper, Mahi Mahi, Mutton Snapper, Wahoo, Hogfish, Blackfin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Bonito, and more are in the cards if conditions are right.

You can expect to do some spinning, trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are welcome! We are also pet-friendly! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. You can bring your own food on board, or we can supply food for you and your guests.  Must call for pricing on food choices (breakfast, lunch, or dinner).

We run a 35' custom-built catamaran that can accommodate up to 13 passengers.

Rods, reels, and tackle can be provided (speak to your concierge at Custom Cat Charters). Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Some essentials to bring are bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Drinks can be included at an additional charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, only plastic cups are allowed onboard.  No glass bottles.

Treat yourself and your family or corporate team to a day on the water with Custom Cat Charters. "Make The Ocean Your Playground".
