I am a Captain who grew up in the Lower Keys. I have extensive knowledge of the waters in this area. I've done commercial fishing, diving, island hopping, and even towing and salvage. As a Captain, I have been fishing, spearfishing, and lobstering since I was a kid. I can't imagine doing anything else, this is what I love!

    4 hr– Lobster/Spearfishing Combo • 2 adults

    Captain Ray made sure I had an amazing time on my first lobster-catching trip! Since it was my first time, I really appreciated his patience, guidance, and helpful tips throughout the trip. He made the experience fun, enjoyable, and memorable. I’ll definitely be booking with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone knowledgeable, professional, and accommodating. Thank you, Captain Ray, for such a great experience!

    I had a family member visiting from Europe. We encountered a pretty tough fishing conditions and our schedule was very limited but Captain and Leah went above and beyond to make the experience happen. It was my uncles dream to catch a fish in Florida waters and the crew made that happen. A+++ experience!

    We had an absolutely incredible experience on this lobster and spearfishing charter! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. Ray and Leah took the time to explain the process, share safety tips, and point out the best spots, which made the trip both fun and educational. The equipment was in excellent condition, and the boat was clean. We were able to catch plenty of lobster for each of us and try our hand at spearfishing, and the guides were right there with us—patient, encouraging, and clearly passionate about what they do. Their local knowledge of the waters made all the difference, and we felt like we were in the best hands possible. Ray and Leah made sure everyone had an amazing time and got the most out of the day. We left with not only a great catch of lobster and fish, but also some incredible memories. If you’re looking for an unforgettable adventure on the water, I can’t recommend this charter enough. We’ll definitely be booking again!

    These captains are some of the greatest and most genuine people I've ever met. We booked a half day charter and things started out slow so they ended up keeping us out for a full day instead. They were very knowledgeable and worked hard to make sure we got what we came for. Ended up all catching a mahi mahi, rainbow runner, and a few huge barracuda. 10/10 would recommend them over anyone
