Excited to cast a line in Marathon? That's what Hennessy Sportfishing is here for!

You're likely to fish for Mangrove Snapper, Mutton Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, Grouper, Tarpon, Sailfish, Amberjack, Cero Mackerel, Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), and more, depending on the season.

On these trips, it's common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. The captain also offers kite fishing.

The captain is happy to have kids aboard, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Don't forget to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Your adventure begins aboard a 28' Center console with space for 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water.

Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

It's always wise to bring a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Awesome Day of Fishing
6 Hour Reef and Wreck Trip on April 24, 20261 adult

Incredible service. Put us on fish right away. Caught 3 species I've never caught before, including Mahi and a Sail Fish. Also caught a load of Yellowtail. Captain and crew made sure it was a good trip. Thanks Captain Dez and DC.
