Derek RollRepeat angler5.0VerifiedSharks, Barracuda & Snapper — Epic Day on the Flats
Full Day (8 hours) • 2 adultsWe had an awesome 12-hour trip in the Keys with Caiman. Even with windy conditions and tough fishing at times, he worked hard all day and stayed focused on putting us on fish. His knowledge of the area and the fishery really showed throughout the trip. The highlight was definitely catching sharks and barracuda on the flats — an incredible experience. We ended up catching snapper, barracuda, lemon sharks, and nurse sharks, which made for a very action-packed day. If you’re looking for a guide who is experienced, hardworking, and determined to make sure you have a great trip regardless of conditions, I highly recommend fishing with Caiman.

6 Hour Trip (AM) • 2 adults • 1 childwent out on Sundays Mar.29th. over cast and windy. was not looking like the best day in my eyes. He took us out and with in one cast my son (11) got a HUGE sheepshead, we got snook and probably 6 jacks , my poor casting got snagged, the captain had extra equipment ready and passed off the new pole and he took care of my screw ups. we moved to a different spot BAM more fish fishing slowed down we moved BOOM sharks !! we will pulling in pups lefts and right! was not what we were going for but my son was more that excited so we stayed and he excitement was worth every minute and penny i spent!! the boat this real nice well kept. the captain is fantastic great with kids and knows his stuff. I 100% recommend him and will continue to do so. This was the best trip my son has been and the best birthday gift he could has asked for.

Half Day Trip (4-6 hours) • 2 adultsCaiman is a great man to spend the day with. Very professional and knowledgeable of the area. If I was more skilled we would have landed more fish, he put me on them but I casted like a nube. Caiman was very patient with me learning this new fishery. I would definitely book with him again. The gear and boat were top notch.

Half Day Trip (4-6 hours) • 2 adultsMy wife and I went out with Capt. Caiman on a very windy day, however, he put us on fish and in spite of not getting a shot at a tarpon due to wind and tide timing, we had an awesome time. 4 big barracuda and the fight of a lifetime on a 6 ft shark on the fly rod. 20 minutes of flyrod experience to last a lifetime! I didn't know a fly reel could even hold that much backing! We would definitely recommend a day with Caiman on the water. Many thanks to him for a great experience.
