Remember you are just fishing. There are no guarantees. So just let go and have fun.

I would recommend doing more research on Facebook and finding a much less expensive charter
Kyle Parker
Just have fun let the captain put you on the fish that are biting and you will have a blast.
Tricia Rainey
Fantastic experience. And this was only my second time fishing. Highly recommend

Sunscreen, light weight long-sleeve shirt and water!!!! Be patient and just have fun

Make sure to check the forecast for waves and wind. Some days are rougher than others.

Just come have a good time and catch some great fish. Find a restaurant to cook your catch too.

Book a 3/4 or full day trip. 1/2 day is too short with the commute to the fishing area
Carol Herfort
Yes. He explained more than other guides. He worked hard the whole time and kept everyone busy.
AJ Pender
need to spend more than 4 hours out fishing, plan a day trip for better catching.

Fly directly into Key West unless you like 6 hour drives from Fort Lauderdale in our case.

Get hooked up with Captain Blake. He knows the waters can confidently navigate you to the catch.
Charles Platt
The afternoon charters are nice because you will enjoy the sunset on your ride back to the dock.
Brandon York
Do the 6hr rather than just a 4hr this gives you time to make moves if you’re not catching
Katherine Viers
Not sure what to recommend since this was my first time. Maybe motion sickness medicine.
Susan Domeyer
It’s fishing. Hopefully you get fish, just know the crew does their damnest to make that happen

Book Corsair 2. These guys have the local knowledge needed to succeed out here.
Alexandra Cantwell
Absolutely! It was my first time and definitely not my last after that experience.

Was a little wet due to the wind, so maybe bring a rain jacket. Otherwise be prepared for fun.

One of the toughest months to catch fish so you need an experienced captain and mate.

Key West is hot n humid in July. It’s a little cooler out on the water but it’s hot!

Be patient and go with a smaller group and be flexible in what you’re fishing for.
