Coastal Outfitters Sport Fishing

A ride with Coastal Outfitters Sport Fishing is the most enjoyable way to get to the waters of Islamorada. If you are up for the challenge, choose the fish you want to target and feel free to join the knowledgeable crew. And don’t forget to take your kids!

You will be welcomed aboard a Big O boat. It is a unique 21’ long fishing platform for 2 guests, powered by a 200 HP Yamaha engine. Before heading out for the main target, you’ll catch live bait.

Summertime is the best for catching Tarpon that is all over the bridges and passes, as well as Snook Redfish and trout

After your trip, the fish you decide to keep will be cleaned and filleted for you. Just keep in mind that smoking on board is not permitted and neither is excessive drinking.
