It would’ve been great to catch multiple types of fish but that’s my only reason for selecting good and not excellent. No reflection on the captain or crew.

Key West is a great place to fish using charters. What we learned is to bring a heavy duty insulated cooler with you big enough to carry frozen fish home with you. There is business on the island that will vacuum pack freeze and ship fish home for you. Fins Diver Center. Shipping yourself with Dry Ice is expensive through UPS or FedEX. We carried ours home on the plane, total time was 10 hours. Fish made it home frozen, using a Yeti softcooler

I would recommend fishing Key West with Charters from the North Roosevelt Charter Dock. I fished with others in the past and we had a much better experience with the charters from the businesses in this area for the same cost.

If you're looking for deep sea fishing, this aint it. I mistakenly booked this charter. However, I love to fish, so gave it a try. It turned out to be a great trip. We had fun, the boat was clean, the guide (Sam) worked his butt off, and we caught a bucket of eaters. Firing up the grill right now. We were not disappointed!

If it's your first time, take Dramamine the night before and an hour before your trip. Worked well for multiple boat trips with varying conditions.

Make sure to clarify the fish or types of fishing you want to do. This has a big determination on the captain, boat and time on the water. If you fish the flats you will catch a lot of barracuda, so if that's not your fish of choice make sure to let the capt know your fishing goals for the catch. Also if you are really after one species of fish, get a capt. who states clearly that they target and specialize in catching that species.

All was great and going directly out of stock Island saves running time. We had lines in within 25 mins. of leaving the dock.

Bring sunscreen and apply liberally. Bring a hat. Bring snacks for in between most boats wont provide. Bring hydrating packages to put in the water bottles they provide. Bring YOUR OWN freezer bags for your catch. They do the fillets but give you a shopping bag for all your catch. So if you want all your fish separated once, you will have to provide the bags

Captain Dan is by far the best fishing charter I have been in. Five minutes into anchoring we started catching fish and it did not stop all day!

The weather was great. Not too hot! It was a little windy but Captain John knew how to get into the quiet spots out of the wind. I really like the end of April fishing here.
