3/4 Day Trip on November 7, 2025 • 3 adultsWe've caught more than 20 fish, I did my PB and my girlfriend caught lots of fish too and it was the first time. Perfect guide, 100% satisfied!

Half Day Trip on August 6, 2023 • 4 adults • 2 childrenCaptain Álvarez was excellent; he was professional, on-time, great with my kids and super educated about fishing. Me and my three kids had a blast. We caught about 20 fish, and it was so much fun and informative. My son who is 11 was extremely excited and my girls also had a good time. They all wanted to stay longer. Captain Álvarez took his time, was super patient, and just went out of his way to make sure we were happy and satisfied. I would strongly recommend. Cost was reasonable and very fair. We will surely be using him again next time we come to Miami.
Kirsten Parker•Michigan, USMember since 20235.0VerifiedFull day freshwater with Captain Yoan
Full Day Trip on February 12, 2023 • 2 adultsGreat day with Captain Yoan! The boat was beautiful and clean and nicely equipped. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time, including communicating with us before the trip to talk about our options and expectations. Since I was booking as a surprise for my husband, it put my mind at ease that I made the right choice. Besides catching a ton of fish, it was great to spend time with someone who not only had professional expertise but clearly loves what he does. Capt Yoan is personable, knowledgeable, and fun! I would book again 100%.
Dylan LafondRepeat angler•New Hampshire, US•Member since 20225 trips5.0VerifiedBest Day of Fishing I Ever Had!
Half Day Trip on July 4, 2022 • 1 adultFlew down to Key Largo, FL as a last minute weekend vacation and I knew I wanted to fill one of my mornings with a private charter to catch Peacock Bass. I ended up messaging Captain Yoan. I told him I had a small window to book something and he accommodated me x10. He was flexible on the time and drove closer to me so I could grab breakfast before I checked out of my resort. He is an absolute professional and has a level of experience that is unmatched, but very down to earth and patient which made me feel like we were long time friends. This was hands down my best day of fishing…caught a 6.3lb peacock bass and 25+ others in a 4hr half day trip. No need to look anywhere else, seriously…this is the whole package experience!

3/4 Day Trip on October 26, 2024 • 2 adults • 1 childKnowledgeable Captain, beautiful boat, secluded fishing area. We caught tarpon, largemouth, peacock, cichlids, and even lost a gar at one point. Highly recommended the trip.
Joanne MulderRepeat angler•New Jersey, US•Member since 20217 trips4.0VerifiedCaught 75 fish!
3/4 Day Trip on July 13, 2025 • 3 adultsCaptain Yoan knows where to go to catch beautiful Peacock Bass and largemouth Bass. Caught a lot of Mayan Cichlids too! Pro tip- bring strong sunscreen and bug spray. You will need it. Also you will be charged at the end of the trip for live bait. We weren’t aware of this. We thought this was included.
Larry SmithRepeat angler•Texas, US•Member since 20212 trips5.0VerifiedTwo days of great fishing with Capt. Yoan
3/4 Day Trip on May 1, 2021 • 3 adultsBest two days of guided fishing we’ve ever had! More Black bass and Peacock bass than we could count. If you want a guide that will work hard to put you on the fish, this is the man to use. We will definitely be back!! Thanks again for a memorable trip my friend.

Your captain
Miami, Florida, United States
Captain Yoan Alvarez was born in Cuba in 1976 and has over 30 years of fishing experience. Having first learned to fish with his grandparents, who took him to the local ponds in Cuba to fish for Tilapia with a stick and some string, he has always been on the search for new fishing adventures. This passion brought him to Florida in 2002, and he hasn't looked back since. With well over a decade of experience studying, fishing, and succeeding in these waters, he is now a well-known and respected captain both locally and nationwide, and his several large sponsors are proof of his success and talent. What makes him unique as a charter captain is his strong attention to detail and his desire and ability to meet the needs of his clients.
