Spend the day with Ariel Medero and get hooked on fishing in Marathon! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Ariel can tell you all about them.

Amberjack, Great Barracuda, Sailfish, Black Grouper, Hogfish, Mahi Mahi, Red Grouper, Cobia, and more are in the cards, depending on when you go. Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself spinning, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Ariel can also show you kite fishing.

Capt. Ariel is happy to have kids aboard, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. You're welcome to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Your adventure begins aboard a 34' SeaVee center console with room for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers, and all the essentials. What's more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 10–20% tip is customary.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It's recommended to bring sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
