    Grand Slam Experience!

    3/4 Day Trip4 adults

    Captain Josh promptly arrived at the pick up location and we proceeded to catch some bait. Josh modified our trip to take advantage of the weather and fishing conditions. Stopped at 2 reefs and limited out on Mutton Snapper then headed out for some larger fish. Family caught several Yellowtail and Rainbow runners to end the day. Josh cleaned all the fish and recommended a local restaurant to prepare dinner. Family feast of days catch ensued and the day was complete. Memorable experience for our family and would absolutely recommend Grand Slam Charters for guided fishing in the Keys.

    Great trip, awesome Captain, caught tons of fish

    4 Hour Trip – Reef Fishing5 adults

    Captain Josh was awesome, super friendly and very accommodating. We had a young teen on board too, and Josh was very good with him, keeping his interest high and taught him a lot. He knew the waters, where to fish, and gave us plenty of tips on how to fish with the specific targets we were after. Welcomed us aboard, took care of everything, as well as cleaning and fileting our catch. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area looking for a well spent half day fishing. Thanks!

    Awesome trip

    8 Hour Trip – Reef Fishing3 adults

    Capt Josh and Gavin gave us a great day on the water. Moved us around the reef to keep us on the action and out of the waves, always had the rods ready to go, and provided us with a fun filled day and lots of fish. Highly recommend.
