Captain
Joe Mercurio III

Member since January 2019 Key West, United States

Background: Capt. Joe has been fishing for the past 37 years, and has been a licensed captain for 27 of then. He was born and raised in Key West, so it's safe to say he knows these waters like the back of his hand. When it comes to the boat you'll be fishing from, it's pretty much a piece of Key West history – Capt. Joe's father owned the boat before him. This family's tradition of fishing doesn't stop there, though. Capt. Joe's grandfather had one of the first charterboats in Key West in the late 40's. Come aboard and make yourself a part of Floridian fishing history!

Poured rain, still caught 10 snapper on the reef and a mahi offshore in half a day. Team was optimistic and didn’t complain about being completely drenched. Second time going with Captain Joe and will be back! They are the best.

Thank you so much, and I really apologize about the rain. We both looked at the radar. I did not see that coming. 🙏🎣

The captain, Joe, and mate Jerry were without question the most skilled and professional fishing team we’ve ever been with. From equipment set up and fish type angling they are the best. I would only book with them in Key West.

These guys know how to fish bottom line. Took my 16 yr old for his birthday. We crushed it. They know places to take them to grill them as well. Great trip! Only did a 1/2 day and had many hits and caught with just 2 of us.

We had a great time with Captain Joe and Joel. He put us on the Mahi and got us plenty of keepers to make tacos with the family. We would absolutely recommend this trip! Hope we can go back out with him next time.
