Whether you’re an experienced fly fisherman, or a novice just looking for a nearshore fishing experience, Silverking Charters is the right choice. Captain Alex Zapata is an avid angler who is dedicated to fly fishing and light tackle fishing in all of the finest fisheries from Miami all the way to the key west, including the everglades.

Join him aboard his boat and enjoy a fun-filled adventure with your friends or family. You will be provided with top-notch fly fishing, spin, and plug equipment to catch Bonefish, Permit, Tarpon, Snook, Barracuda, Sharks, Redfish, Trout, Peacock bass, Mackerel, Jacks, Snapper, among others. 

Capt Alex offers technical flyfishing, fly casting instruction, sight fishing, tournament fishing or have a ‘father and son’ day out on the water or just bend a rod with your fishing buddies. Introduce your kids to the art of angling or break your own records. Capt. Alex is highly skilled and will work hard to put you on top of the hottest bite!

Silverking Charters uses two top-of-the-line vessels to cover all your fishing needs. Your boats for the day will be either a Maverick 17 HPX-V skiff for sight fishing and flyfishing trips or a Pathfinder 22’ Tournament bay boat for light tackle, live bait, and family fishing trips. Both vessels feature a GPS, VHF radio, as well as all the necessary safety equipment and professional accessories to make a great catch possible. 

Once on board, you will find rods and reels by Daiwa, Penn, Hardy, Shimano, and Winston ready for you to use. If you decide to keep the catch, it will be cleaned and filleted by the captain so that you could try it for dinner later.

Your food and drinks are welcome on board. Just make sure you bring your desire to have fun with you!

Full Day Trip

Full Day with Captain Alex Zapata

VERIFIED

My friend and I went fishing in the Everglades with Captain Alex Zapata for a full day on August 28, 2019. We had a great time. Captain Alex knows these waters like the back of his hand. During the day, he presented us with a multitude of opportunities to catch tarpon, snook, ladyfish, sea trout, etc. We caught many species of fish and jumped several large tarpon along the way. Captain Alex is a true professional, keenly focused on customer satisfaction. I wouldn't hesitate to engage Alex again on another fishing adventure.
