    What an incredible day on the water!

    6 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    We had never chartered with Captain Bruce Anderson (Captain Eazy) before, but several people recommended him and said he was one of the best. They were absolutely right. From the moment we stepped on the boat, it was obvious that Captain Bruce has decades of experience. His confidence, knowledge, and fishing ability immediately put us at ease. He's incredibly personable, easygoing, and made the entire trip enjoyable from start to finish. The fishing was outstanding. We limited out on mahi and blackfin, and Captain Bruce worked hard to keep us on the fish all day long. His experience and willingness to move around and adapt made a huge difference. We've booked with other charters in the past and have occasionally been disappointed, but Captain Bruce completely exceeded our expectations. This was hands-down one of the best charter experiences we've ever had. If you're considering booking a trip, I highly recommend the 6-hour charter. The extra time gives you the flexibility to move around, find fish, and maximize your day on the water. It's not much more expensive, but it can make a massive difference in the overall experience. Would I recommend Captain Bruce? Absolutely. In fact, we're already looking forward to booking another trip with him as soon as possible. If you're looking for a knowledgeable captain, a great boat, a laid-back atmosphere, and an unforgettable fishing experience, Captain Bruce Anderson (Captain Eazy) is the one to call.

    My husband and I took our son on a 6 hour trip for part of is birthday celebration and Captain Bruce was awesome. The weather looked like it was going to be windy so we doscussed options with him the night before and decided to try it. Captain Bruce gauged us well and found some great spots where we had some awesome catches! We’ll definitely use him again when we come back.

    Amazing two days fishing with Captain Bruce

    6 Hour Trip • 3 adults

    We had a wonderful time fishing with Captain Bruce off of Islamorada. We fished with him for two days (6-hour charters), with the first day focused on bottom fishing reefs and wrecks, and the second day trolling for Mahi. Captain Bruce had us on the fish the whole time, and we had an awesome experience. He was incredibly professional, enjoyable to fish with, and made it a great experience. We highly recommend him and he is now our go-to captain in the Florida Keys.

    Reported catch:

    Captains Bruce is Awesome!

    4 Hour Trip • 4 adults

    We had so much fun on our half day charter with Captain Bruce. We caught 15 yellow tail snappers and two black fin tuna. Captain Bruce offered to clean and filet the fish when we got back to the dock, and offered helpful tips on how to ship it home. He also gave plenty of advice on catching the fish during our charter. Perfect for advanced fishermen or beginners!

    Epic day, great captain!

    4 Hour Trip • 3 adults

    From the minute we got on board the boat, until we were done receiving our cleaned catch. Captain Bruce was a professional captain. He explained what our options were for the day and delivered on our choices. He answered all questions and was right there for all needs. Our catch was 21 keeper yellowtail snapper and 9 keeper bluefin tuna on a 4 hour morning trip. And at the end of the trip while he was cleaning the fish at the dock. There was a manatee, many tarpon, pelicans and 3 nurse sharks.

    Bagged 2 big tuna, but we only got the heads. Sharks got them. Did land 15 mahi mahi, 7 smaller tuna and one bonita. Right arm and shoulder had a hell of a work out.

    Bruce always catches you your fish and willing to customize your charter for a fun trip. His experience and knowledge always provide top-notch results year after year.

What's biting with Easy Does It Islamorada in Islamorada

Cobia start to appear, sometimes in big schools. The mullet migration brings Sailfish close to the shore, along with the last of the Blackfin Tuna. This is also a great time for Trout and Redfish in the shallows.

Tuna and mahi still biting offshore!

Sep 8, 2024 • Islamorada
The fishing down here in Islamorada continues to stay strong. We've got just about everything going on right now. Some really good bottom fishing, great reef fishing, some good live bait fishing just outside the reef, and offshore the black Finn tuna fishing on the hump has been excellent. They've also been quite a few mahi coming through again the last couple of days. Also plenty of opportunities with big sharks if anybody is interested in shark Fishing. The tuna fishing shouldi stay hot through September and into October and then yhe live bait fishing and bottom gishing should get hot for the second half of the fall and early part of the winter. It's a great time to get down here and do some fishing!

Red Hot tuna fishing offshore!

Aug 25, 2024 • Islamorada
We've had a whole bunch of stuff going on down here in the Florida Keys. Most recently the black Finn tuna bite has been very good on our offshore sea mounts and humps. Every day has been a little different, but we've been catching some really nice blackfin tuna on live bait when everything comes together. We've also been catching some really nice snapper and a whole mix of other stuff.

Dec 9, 2023 • Islamorada
December is here and the winter season is upon us! We've got some great fishing this time of year. Our live bait fishing for sailfish, tuna, King Fish, wahoo, and mahi is coming up on its peak time of year. Most days we will be kite fishing with Live Baits. We've also got some really good bottom fishing for different kinds of snapper, grouper, and jacks available The reef fishing for yellowtail snappers, and Mutton and Mangrove Snapper's on the patch reefs, has been excellent, and should stay that way for the next few months And finally, the fishing back in the gulf has been excellent with lots of Spanish mackerel, mangrove, snapper, jacks, sharks, and a chance at goliath, grouper and cobia I hope you'll join me for a great day on the water with my favorite time of year to fish here in the keys coming up

Great fishing iffshore and on the reef!

Jun 25, 2023 • Islamorada
We’ve had some great fishing down here in the Islamorada area of the Florida Keys the last few weeks and months. Very recently the bottom fishing just outside the reef has been very good and we’re catching some really nice mutton snappers on a lot of the wrecks and reefs. Offshore, there’s been a steady pick of mahi-mahi and some good deep drop fishing as well. Also, some tuna and wahoo mixed into the catch. It’s a great time of year to get down here and do some fishing. We should have some great Mahi fishing and Reef and bottom fishing for the rest of the summer and into the early fall.

The fishing in Islamorada and the upper keys is going great right now. It's a great time to come down and get in on the action. Everything from live bait fishing for sailfish and tuna, to bottom fishing for snapper, to fishing in the gulf for Spanish mackerel and mangrove snapper has been excellent.

We’ve had some great fishing down in the Islamorada area lately. Now that our winter season is in full swing we’re catching a whole variety of different stuff and have a whole bunch of different kinds of fishing available. Everything from the live bait and kite fishing for sailfish fish, tuna, wahoo, and king fish to Reef fishing for various snappers like yellowtail and mutton snapper to fishing back in the gulf fir Spanish mackerel, and Mangrove Snapper has been very good. It’s definitely a great time to get down here and try one of the many types of fishing we have available.
