What anglers said about fishing in Lower Keys

Going into it having fun. Listen to the captain and mate and realize when deep sea fishing it can be hit or miss and they are going to place you in the best position to succeed.

Highly recommend this excursion. The captain and his crew were great. The price for this 4 hour cruise included everything needed to fish and the experience was outstanding from start to finish.

You don’t need to go way out in the sea to have an awesome time on the water. We only did a 3-hr trip, and if it was up to the boys we would have fished all day, but in the short amount of time fishing the backcountry of Key West my teenage son hooked onto a couple lunkers….barricuda and a giant tarpon during tarpon season. I wouldn’t expect the “giants” everytime, but there are plenty of nice sized fish within 10 mins of the island.

it was super. Waves were about 2’ or so. Could not have been better even though we were cautioned about the potential conditions

if you’re planning on solely catching big game fish, it’s very weather dependent here with the winds, but you can always go inshore for mangrove, snapper and yellowtail

Don't set your heart on a specific species. Pray for calm waters and tight lines. Rely on the expertise of the crew and ask them to do their best to put you on the fish. Even the best crew & equipment can get skunked after working incredibly hard. We enjoyed being on the water and were so grateful to have several catches. I'd love to return for other species - depends on the season.

Bring your reef safe suncreen and get your arms warmed up to reel in the catches of a lifetime. I was out of breathe from the first fish on! I’d also reccomend you get to the boat nice and early! Patience is key!

Reach out to your charter and ask any questions in advance. Stay in touch and let them know any needs, reasonable expectations, and status for your arrival. Their years of experience is their talent too!

I had my two (twins) grandsons with me. They had never gone charter fishing. It was a success day, they both loved it and want to go again when it is possible.

If you’ve never done this type of fishing try not to have expectations and you won’t be disappointed. There is definitely a learning curve. Just enjoy yourself!
