Book with Dee Dee. Capt. Chuck Shimmelman is very accommodating and found fish when they were hard to find. Justin is the best 1st mate I've fished with.

Relax and have fun. Captains know the waters and put you on the fish. Wonderful for experienced to novice.Highly recommended.

Do a few days if you can. There so much to checkout. Best fishery in the world.

While I said not appropriate for children, that really reflects the conditions we had today.

Don’t forget your sunscreen and STAY HYDRATED! It’s hot out there and it creeps up on you!

Front came through few days earlier, dropped water temp, which could have impacted bite

I would absolutely recommend fishing out of Islamorada and fishing with Captain Easy does it!

Dress in layers. The ride out and in can be cool but you usually warm up when you’re fishing

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.

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 a charter with Trent. Take your catch to a local restaurant after. Awesome time

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
