On this charter we will be leaving the dock at 8am and coming back around 4pm. The full day charter allows us to go further and fish longer and is the best option for experienced anglers who want the best opportunity at quality fish. We will have everything you need for this charter. I would recommend bringing whatever food and drinks you would like, sunscreen (no spray), sunglasses, and appropriate clothing for the conditions.

Family of 6, had a great time fishing. Waters were a bit sporty but the crew got us on fish. Bagged a Red Grouper for dinner. The crew was as thrilled as we were, they had great energy and put us on fish.

Lots of fish caught in clean spacious boat
5/5
Competent and friendly captain Brad and 1st mate John. Caught about 15 small-medium fish: lane snapper, jack cravalle, and kept 4 yellowtail. Landed 2 red grouper but out of season so released them.
Nice toilet, boat had padding along all sides so easy to stand/lean against sides to reel in fish.
Live bait including shrimp and netted surface minnow type fish. Captain filleted our catch while mate cleaned and shined up boat. A beautiful sunny day 2-4’waves.

Great day with Captain Jason
5/5
Great day with Captain Jason. We left the dock on time and headed to multiple locations where we caught fish at everyone!
My wife and I caught mangrove and yellow tail snappers and even a keeper, red grouper. The keys never disappoint when it comes to fishing. I would highly recommend these guys.
