    One of My Best Fishing Days Ever

    Shared Charter - 4 Hour on October 10, 2026 • 1 adult

    I fish with a guide about a dozen times per year, every year, and Capt. Rod Walline is now one of my favorite guides ever. I said I hoped for a variety of fish species and plenty of action, and boy did he deliver. I caught two bonnethead sharks, 2 hardhead catfish, a tomtate, a mutton snapper, a yellowtail snapper (supper), and a lane snapper. Capt. Rod stayed out beyond the expiration of my time so I could catch the third snapper species and qualify for Fla. Game & Fish's "Grand Slam" of snappers. I'll be back, Rod.

    Mackerel straight!

    Shared Charter - 4 Hour on October 30, 2026 • 1 adult

    Captain Rod and his mate were phenominal and put us on plenty of fish throughout the charter. I've fished in Key West before but have never reeled in such a variety of fish in a single charter like we did on Cool Breeze! We pulled in 3 different species of Mackerel - King, Spanish and Cero; Yellow Tail Snapper, and even a Blue Fish! Will definitely be back on board next time I visit the island, could not recommend this charter and the captain enough!

    The highlight of my trip to Key West

    Shared Charter - 4 Hour on October 30, 2026 • 1 adult

    Captain Rod was fantastic and very knowledgable. He did his beat to get us good chances to catch fish, and was very personable. The morning I had with him was smooth and he was able to maximize our time fishing out on the water. Caught so many different species of fish while with him, and at the end of it all was able to get it fileted and taken home for dinner. A marvelous experience overall, I highly recommend!

Captain Rod Walline runs Cool Breeze out of Garrison Bight in Key West. He holds a U.S. Coast Guard Master license and has spent years fishing the reefs, wrecks, and blue water off the Keys. Cool Breeze is operated by Tight Lines Legacy LLC, a veteran-owned company: one boat, one captain, and up to six guests at a time. Rod would rather put you on fish than talk about it. Tell him what you want to catch, and he’ll plan the day around it.
