Joey Flats Fishing Everglades 4hr on September 6, 2026 • 2 adultsWe had a great time fishing with Joey. He worked very hard to help us catch fish and carefully explained the best fishing spots and how to cast. He was very friendly, patient, and knowledgeable throughout the trip. We really appreciated his effort and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the Everglades as well. It was a memorable experience and I would definitely recommend this trip.

I booked a trip with Captain Joey to celebrate my son‘s 13th birthday. He did a great job checking in with us before the trip. Everything we needed on the boat was ready to go. He did a great job explaining to us the history of the national park as well as sharing some stories of when he fished this area when he was younger. Every spot he took us to was a great spot for fishing. When the spot ran a little cold, he was ready to move onto the next spot. My son had a great birthday and so did his cousin who we also brought along for the trip. I can’t thank him enough. I highly recommend that you book your trip with Captain Joey.

Thank you so much, Mr. Nagai, it was definitely my pleasure to take you and your son out for your Everglades excursion. We had a phenomenal morning. You guys did really well catching all kinds of species like snook, trout and snapper. For the last hour of the trip it started raining heavily, so we started making our way back to the doc. We finally got to see the famous crocodile Fred. It was an awesome trip. Thank you so much, sir for choosing Joey Flats Fishing trips and I hope I see you guys real soon. Thanks for choosing me, Captain Joey.

what a great Fishing Trip with these two people Anthony and Miss Aspen. They booked the whole day Fishing Trip and let me tell you we fish the whole day we caught snook. We caught snapper Jack it was just a really fun day out there. this young gentleman totally changed my mind on artificial bait. He was doing so well he totally convinced me to start throwing an NLBN  Just wanna say thank you for choosing Joey Flats Fishing for your Everglades fishing trip and I hope to see you guys real soon. Thank you so much, Captain Joey.
Booked with Captain Joey Flats in Flamingo and couldn’t be happier. Weather tried to ruin the day (cold snap + wind), but Joey kept it positive and worked his tail off to make it happen. He told us he’d put us on fish and he wasn’t kiddin. Our buddy from up north killed it with a big snook and a dinner-plate sheepshead. Joey’s a good dude and a fun captain to spend the day with. Highly recommend. My dad is still talking about how much fun he had. Thanks again Joey.
