Unfortunately our trip fell during a cold front. Otherwise beautiful waters, great experience.

Dress in layers. The ride out and in can be cool but you usually warm up when you’re fishing
Timothy Vandercook
The experience for my kids was amazing. I would recommend it to anyone traveling here.

Check the charts to know which are the best months for the specie you're going after.

Let Jack do the work.listen and pay attention. It will pay off in the long run.
Matthew Skolnick
Definitely worth it, and the water extremely calm for anyone who is not a fan on being on a boat.

Don't go in July!! Go during the best times in Mar/April if you want more than 1 hook up.
Tara Crabtree
Didn’t catch as many as I have on other charters, but did hook into an awesome stingray.

Be flexible. The mahi mahi bite was not happening so we switched to reef fishing

We just had very challenging weather. 2 of three days here were canceled due to wind.

Stay in the north side and backcountry, as the wind is rough on the open ocean side.

Research the type of fishing you are interested in then look for a Captain to match your interests.
Blake Dougherty
Find a captain that cares. Be careful of booking thru resorts. We’ve had bad experiences.

As long as you listen to your guide you’re going to have a great time and catch a lot of fish

Try for different varieties of fish, having a knowledge guide as we did improves your success.

Book with captain Joe. Joe and Jessica were both nothing but pleasant and accommodating.

We come down October-November every year and fishing has not been a problem in the keys

It's too hot during the day if you're not from here. It's especially hot this year over others.

If going for dolphin (which I highly recommend), do so in late summer or early September.

Forget shore fishing. Access is limited and a boat or kayak is needed to effectively fish.

I understand that March is not the best time of the year to be fishing at Islamorada.

Catch your dinner then go for something just for the fun of it! Might even be more dinner!
