I come from a long line of commercial fishermen from the North coast of Cuba. I started commercial fishing as a young man as a crew member on board my father's commercial fishing vessel in 1978. I acquired my first commercial fishing vessel in 1982 and I've been a self-employed fisherman ever since. Having been in these waters since 1978 and gaining the knowledge required, I began my flats fishing charter business in 1988 and have fished the shallow waters from Long Key all the way to the Marquesas islands west of Key West and Florida Bay. Fishing is in my blood and I wanted to carry the traditions of my ancestors and be able to pass on this knowledge and conservation ethics to the coming generations in our family and with all of the clients that I meet.

    Captain Diego is the man

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 4 adults

    Captain D picked us up dockside and had us on fish immediately after a short boat ride. My kids were reeling in snapper hand over fist and he put us on barracuda later in the morning. We capped off the trip at a gorgeous sand bar and he filleted enough snapper and barracuda for 2 meals for the whole family. I’d recommend Captain D to anyone, his knowledge is second to none and his boat is beautiful.

    Reported catch:
    Mangrove Snapper
    Great Barracuda

    Both the Captian Diego and the boat were great. Both my wife and I had great experience with him and he did a great job of putting us on the fish all day.

    Response from Captain

    thank you James, it was a great pleasure having you onboard Flat Out.

What's biting with Flat Out Sportfishing in Marathon

The rain finally eases off in October, and the temperature drops back to a sane 85. The Tuna are at their height this time of year, with Yellowfin and Blackfin biting well offshore, and the Tarpon and Snook are still filling up the shallows.
