Spend the day with Whiskey Bent Sportfishing and find out what the fishing in Islamorada is all about!

These waters are known for Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Blackfin Tuna, Yellowtail Snapper, Silk Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Mutton Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Sailfish, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Black Grouper, Red Grouper, and more – with any luck, you'll have tight lines in no time.

For these species, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. 

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome!  Feel free to bring your own snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty stomach!

Your trip begins aboard a 43' Sportfishing with capacity for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. The airconditioned cabin provides a nice area to relax and get out of the weather.

Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, along with lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

A few items to bring include sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), bottled water, and a hat. Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, time to hit the water with Whiskey Bent Charters!

Great trip with professional crew
6 Hour Trip on June 21, 20265 adults

We booked a six-hour trip with Whiskey Bent Charter, and Capt. Sean and mate Wyatt made it feel like the kind of day you hope for when you leave the dock before daylight. They were professional from the start, worked hard, and had us on fish within the first 30 minutes. We caught yellowtail snapper, yellow jacks, and blackfin tuna, with a few mahi mixed in too. The mahi came up a little shy of the size limit, so they went back to grow up for somebody else’s cooler. Capt. Sean knew where to put us, and Wyatt stayed after it the whole trip. They kept things moving, kept the lines right, and made sure everybody had a real shot at catching fish. Highly recommend Whiskey Bent Charter. Good people, a good boat, and a six-hour trip that gave us plenty to talk about on the ride home.
