    Highly Recommend!

    Daily 5-hour fishing 11am • 2 adults

    We had an absolutely fantastic time on our group fishing charter! Captain Corey and First Mate Marshall were amazing from start to finish. They went above and beyond, even changing locations multiple times to give us the best opportunities to catch more fish. Since this was my first time fishing offshore, I especially appreciated their patience, encouragement, and willingness to help. They made the experience fun, comfortable, and memorable for everyone in our group. We couldn’t have asked for a better crew or a better day on the water. We had such a great time that we’re already looking forward to making this an annual tradition! Highly recommend Captain Corey and Marshall!

    Great Time.

    Daily 5-hour fishing 11am • 2 adults • 1 child

    Marshall was great with helping everyone and kept busy doing it while training Caleb. Tyler was off but on the boat fishing and still helping here and there. Hard to put into words how awesome the crew and trip was. Took my 12 year old daughter who hasn’t done a lot of fishing and she was catching fish with no issue. Took the yellow tail snapper to Dante’s right off the boat to cook. We took our grunt fish back to the hotel to make ceviche with per captain Corey’s suggestion. Highly recommend, and we’ll go again if ever in the area!

    View and an experience!

    5 Hour Fishing • 2 adults

    The boat ride alome is worth the money. The fishing experience was more than what we expected. We relocated to multiple spots. After the 5 hours Tyler fileted our fish, which were grunt, lane snapper and yellow tail. We took the fish to dantes, which is next to the marina and they grilled, fried and blackened the fish. This was kid friendly and will definitely be back.

    Such a great experience

    Daily 5-hour fishing 11am • 8 adults • 2 children

    Captain Cory and the crew were absolutely amazing. My youngest was getting frustrated that he hadn't caught anything yet and Cory came over personally and spent the time to help him casting and showing him some hints he had. Within 5 minutes my son caught his first fish and was super excited. We had a group of 8 and all of us said it was such a blast and created a great family memory. Being from New England it was nice to have a crew that could relate to us and know the area we are from. We had such a blast and would highly recommend Captain Cory and the Cora Beth to anyone.

What's biting with Cora Beth Fishing in Key West

Reef fishing is still good but can be windy. Bonefish thins out on the flats but Permit is as good as ever. Sailfish and Tuna are caught over the reefs and backcountry fishing is excellent.
