Everglades national park has a fish with your name on it, so let Decked Out Charters help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Kyle is prepared to put you on fish.

Snook, Tarpon, Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, Goliath Grouper, Mangrove Snapper, Black Drum, and more could be biting, depending on the season. You can expect to do some spinning, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Kyle also offers fly fishing.

Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Feel free to bring your own snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty stomach!

Capt. Kyle operates a 18' Beavertail skiff with capacity for 2 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

It's never a bad idea to bring sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. There will be bottled water on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own drinks. Alcohol is not allowed.

Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Decked Out Charters.

great everglades fishing charter
Half Day Trip on August 5, 20262 adults

Booked a trip with Capt Kyle to take my son out and we had an amazing time from start to finish! From am amazing sunrise cruising thru the everglades on the way out, casting at jumping tarpon, gators, catching redfish/speckled trout to dolphins playing in the boats wake on the way back, we couldnt have asked fir a better experienced. Capt Kyle had a well kept skiff, was both knowledgeable of all types fishing and easy to talk. He was also a great teacher to the beginner fishermen. If youre looking for that one of a kind Everglades fishing trip- look no further. Kyle- thank you again. My son and i will be talking about this for years!
