For fishing in Key West, look no further than Linda D Sportfishing. The Wicker family have been taking locals and tourists alike for outstanding days on the water since 1938. The passed-down family trade in these waters means that they know the best spots for your day of fishing.

Cruise through the Key West waters in a 40’ Liberty saltwater fishing boat. The vessel can comfortably hold 6 guests, with 2 being able to fish from the platform at the same time. Onboard the Linda V you can find a toilet and a shower, so you can freshen yourself up on those sticky Florida days.

On this resilient vessel, you’ll be able to try your hand at a number of different types of fishing. These include bottom fishing, trolling, as well as deep sea fishing if you’re looking to go after the likes of Billfish or big Snapper. All their trips can be tailored to your needs whether you’re looking to stock up your freezer or pull in a Blue Marlin.

High-quality, Penn International tackle is included in the trip price, and you’ll be using it to go after the catch of a lifetime. The crew will also provide live bait, and clean your catch free of charge after the trip.

Your fishing license is included in the trip, but make sure to bring some drinks and snacks for you and the family. It’s also a good idea to bring sunscreen and sunglasses to protect yourself from the glaring sun as you enjoy a beautiful day upon the waves.

Have been out for Mahi many times. However, this was my first trip out on the Linda D. Capt. Billy put us on the fish and First Mate Jessie made sure we got them in the boat! We were a party of two that came back with 18 Mahi and a Tuna. There were some big fish in the bunch including a 23 pound bull. Will certainly book with them again on my next trip to Key West. A big thank you to the crew for a great day on the water and a freezer full of fish!!

Full Day Trip with Captain Jay and mate AJ

VERIFIED

Full Day Trip on July 3, 2023

Hands down fantastic experience all the way around! We came to Key West from rural Oregon. We did a lot of researching on fishing charters and luckily landed with this company. Let me save you time...stop researching and book Linda D Charters. Captain very knowledgeable about the waters and where the fish are. Mate AJ was friendly, positive, hard working, excited to share his knowledge about fishing AND get us on fish!! If we ever return, we would book with Linda D again.

3/4 Day Trip (PM) on June 21, 2022

My daughter and myself did a 3/4 day trip with Captain Magnus and 1st Mate Tom. We started the day bottom fishing on the reef. In no time at all we had a limit of yellowtail snapper iced down in the fish box. We had so much fun and we had all kinds of reef fish including some impressive size sharks around the boat while we were fishing. We were also very excited because we got to see schools of porpoises teaching their babies how to catch fish. We then trolled for Mahi mahi but were unsuccessful. Captain Magnus put us on the fish and 1st mate Tommy was very busy taking off fish and putting on new bait for us. They were both very respectful and professional and we will be fishing with them again when we come back! We highly recommend them!!!⭐⭐⭐⭐

6 hour deep sea fishing

3/4 Day Trip (AM) on July 8, 2023

We went on 6 hour deep sea fishing… although we didn’t catch as many targeted fish . We still had plenty of action, 1st mate AJ worked hard to keep you fishing and made sure you didn’t need anything… was an awsome trip
