3 hours was enough time for catching snapper amd smaller eating fish. If you want to head out to deeper water for bigger catch I think you’d want at least a 4 hour trip.

“March is a great time to fish in Marathon. The water was active and we saw tons of wildlife including dolphins, sea turtles, sharks, stingrays, and barracuda. We caught snapper and even had time to swim and snorkel. I’d recommend booking a charter and being ready for an amazing day on the water.”

check weather, tide/currents and talk to the guide beforehand if possible to tailor the trip after what’s hot at the time. Austin did a great job getting us on the fish.

Don't be as stubborn as I was about specifically targeting Tarpon. We could have filled the cooler with delicious Mangrove Snapper in no time but I was dead set on catching a Tarpon. But if I had to do it again I wouldn't change a thing. I got to fish and hang out with tremendous guy who knows so much about the Floridian environment that I was truly amazed.
