while we didn’t catch any sharks on this trip, the captain and mate worked their butts off and did everything they could to make it happen. saddly conditions were not in our favor, but that’s just how it goes sometimes. we did, however, not leave empty-handed! they kept us busy catching yellow tail snapper, blue runners, horse eye jacks, and barracuda while we waited on the sharks. the conditions were tough across the board but they really did their best to show us a good time and despite not catching a shark i can honestly say this was one of the most enjoyable charters i have been on. i would recommend this crew to anyone, experienced or not. great boat, gear, and communication both before and during the trip.

My 15 yo son and I chartered a 4 hour morning fishing trip…..What a great day.  Started out catching a bunch of yellowtail snapper fishing over the reef.  Then moved offshore and did some trolling.  We caught 5 beautiful blackfin tuna…..and my son reeled in a monster 49 inch barracuda!  We are having a mount made as a souvenir!  My son tells his mom it will look great over her bed!  The boat was fast clean and beautiful.  There is an air conditioned salon that is rare on charter fishing boats…..a very nice touch for families or fishermen that just don’t want to be out in the elements the whole time.  The captain and mate were extremely knowledgeable and efficient.  Back at the dock they cleaned our catch and arranged for our barracuda mount.  Highly recommended!

If you’re looking for a top-tier fishing experience in the Keys, Anglers Choice is the perfect choice! We had the pleasure of fishing with Captain Ryan and his mate Andrew, and from start to finish, they exceeded every expectation.
Captain Ryan was personable, patient, and highly communicative. Before we even stepped on the boat, he made sure we knew exactly what to expect. He took the time to walk us through how the trip would unfold, answered all our questions, and made the entire experience feel approachable and exciting.  Even if you are a seasoned angler, this professional team will provide you with an excellent fishing adventure.
Andrew was just as impressive. He ensured our rods were ready and handled every fish with remarkable speed and precision. It was clear we were in the hands of true professionals who genuinely love what they do.
Captain Ryan took us to multiple locations, maximizing our chances to hook a variety of fish, and it paid off as we caught plenty and had a blast doing it. Throughout the trip, Ryan’s easygoing nature made it feel like we were fishing with an old friend. That kind of atmosphere can’t be taught, it’s just who he is.
If you’re thinking about booking a fishing charter, don’t hesitate. Anglers Choice with Captain Ryan and Andrew is the way to go. You’ll walk away with sore arms, great memories, and probably a cooler full of fish!

The captain Brian was very pleasant.  He moved locations when the fishing in one area wasn’t the best. Brian also attempted to find turtles for us to see after we were done fishing.  However, the 1st mate was exceptional. He was very friendly, and knowledgeable and worked with us to teach us how to do this type of fishing. He was extremely patient with us and even worked with my 9 yr old grandchildren so they could bring a fish in.  It was great experience.  We caught, yellowtail snapper, a red grouper, and a flying fish. Would definitely charter with them again if we were in the area.

Best! Best! Best! My dad and I had an awesome time on the water! World-wide experienced Captain Ryan as well as First-Mate Kishian are the epitome of experts. Landed us on some beautiful Yellow-Tail and filled the box in no time. The local restaurants were able to cook up different styles and keep the dream alive. Delicious! After the Yellow-Tail we moved out for some trolling and landed into some Tuna. Delicious! And then the big event. A Trophy-Sailfish! They helped with getting the mounting started and made it super simple. Anyone wanting to go out with experienced guides and professionals (as well as extremely friendly) this is where to go! Thank you so much! Memories for life!
