    Great Day on the Water with Captain Kyle

    6 Hour Trip2 adults

    We booked a 6-hour charter with Captain Kyle in Islamorada and had a great experience. It was a long day on the water and definitely tiring, but it was a lot of fun and well worth it. Kyle worked hard to keep us on fish and made the trip enjoyable from start to finish. We caught a nice variety of fish, including a sea trout, 6 mangrove snappers, 2 Goliath groupers, 2 barracudas, and several other species such as ladyfish and mutton snapper. The action stayed steady throughout the trip, and it was exciting to see so many different fish. Captain Kyle was knowledgeable, professional, and easy to spend the day with. If you're looking for a fun fishing trip in Islamorada with a captain who puts in the effort, we'd definitely recommend him. Thanks for a memorable day on the water! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Fishing and Then Some

    6 Hour Trip2 adults

    I’ve had a lot of fishing guides over the years, but this day with Captain Kyle felt different from the minute we stepped on board with his warm and enthusiastic welcome. The day was pure adventure in the locations we fished and species we encountered, and all we learned about the Keys (our first trip there) and fishing tips and techniques for this area. The boat was very comfortable and well equipped. That night we took our catch to a local beachfront sports bar Kyle recommended (Hog Heaven), where they served it up while we listened to live music. An exclamation point on a great day. More than anything, Kyle’s passion for what he does and knowledge he loves to share comes through in abundance. We will be back to Islamorada and look forward to booking Captain Kyle again.

    Best Keys Fishing Trip EVER

    6 Hour Trip2 adults

    Captain Kyle was the absolute best. We had the best time ever and limited out on sea trout almost immediately. If you do what Captain Kyle tells you to do, you will limit out every time. He was the absolute best, so much fun, great company, and overall the best fishing guide I have ever had in the Florida Keys. I can tell you that when we come back, we will only be fishing with Captain Kyle. I would highly recommend to literally anyone—new fisherman and seasoned veterans— Captain Kyle’s fishing charters.

    Hooked on Captain Gabor

    4 Hour Trip3 adults

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Backcountry Fishing Experience with Captain Gabor I recently went on a fishing charter in the Florida Keys with my two sons and my brother-in-law, and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience thanks to Captain Gabor. From the moment we got started, Captain Gabor put us on fish. Throughout the day we caught multiple species and stayed busy the entire trip. What really stood out, though, was how much we learned. Captain Gabor took the time to explain techniques, positioning, and strategy in a way that made the day both productive and educational. These are fishing lessons my sons and I will never forget. One moment that perfectly captured his dedication and professionalism happened when he was helping remove a hook from one of the fish we caught and accidentally got hooked in the hand. It was entirely my son’s fault, but Captain Gabor handled it with incredible patience and good humor. He shrugged it off, kept the mood light, and continued the trip with the same energetic, optimistic attitude he had all day. If you want to experience real backcountry fishing in the Florida Keys, I highly recommend booking a trip with Captain Gabor. Great fishing, great instruction, and an even better attitude. It was a fantastic day on the water for our family.

    Absolutely a must!

    4 Hour Trip - 1:00 PM4 adults2 children

    Best captain around! We went out and were on fish immediately! We will be back again and use Kyle! Worth every dollar, you'll want to book with him for sure! Boat was clean, gear was in great shape and absolutely a ton of bait. We had a big grouper on the line and it rock bound us, he got it free and handed it back over to reel it in an saved the catch! Would recommend for kids or a party trip for adults. He'll cater to what you want! He has a big cooler for your food and drinks, and dry storage on board. Just show up and fish! To top it off we saw tons of dolphins and a manatee!

    Reported catch:

The fall is the best time of year to fish the flats in Islamorada, and you'll see this in September. With fewer crowds, lots of Bonefish and Permit on the flats, and Snook in the mangroves, you're in for a treat.
