while we didn’t catch any sharks on this trip, the captain and mate worked their butts off and did everything they could to make it happen. saddly conditions were not in our favor, but that’s just how it goes sometimes. we did, however, not leave empty-handed! they kept us busy catching yellow tail snapper, blue runners, horse eye jacks, and barracuda while we waited on the sharks. the conditions were tough across the board but they really did their best to show us a good time and despite not catching a shark i can honestly say this was one of the most enjoyable charters i have been on. i would recommend this crew to anyone, experienced or not. great boat, gear, and communication both before and during the trip.

My family and I have been fishing the Keys for many 30 years and have experienced many fishing crews. Captain Ryan and Cayden were hands down the best team. Captain Ryan was an expert managing his boat and the ocean. Cayden’s expertise came in while baiting and fishing. Together, they were the best duo.
We went fishing with two small boys. The crew brought so much energy and patience along for the ride.
Thank you for an unforgettable day out at sea. We’ll be seeing you again soon!

My 15 yo son and I chartered a 4 hour morning fishing trip…..What a great day.  Started out catching a bunch of yellowtail snapper fishing over the reef.  Then moved offshore and did some trolling.  We caught 5 beautiful blackfin tuna…..and my son reeled in a monster 49 inch barracuda!  We are having a mount made as a souvenir!  My son tells his mom it will look great over her bed!  The boat was fast clean and beautiful.  There is an air conditioned salon that is rare on charter fishing boats…..a very nice touch for families or fishermen that just don’t want to be out in the elements the whole time.  The captain and mate were extremely knowledgeable and efficient.  Back at the dock they cleaned our catch and arranged for our barracuda mount.  Highly recommended!

If you’re looking for a top-tier fishing experience in the Keys, Anglers Choice is the perfect choice! We had the pleasure of fishing with Captain Ryan and his mate Andrew, and from start to finish, they exceeded every expectation.
Captain Ryan was personable, patient, and highly communicative. Before we even stepped on the boat, he made sure we knew exactly what to expect. He took the time to walk us through how the trip would unfold, answered all our questions, and made the entire experience feel approachable and exciting.  Even if you are a seasoned angler, this professional team will provide you with an excellent fishing adventure.
Andrew was just as impressive. He ensured our rods were ready and handled every fish with remarkable speed and precision. It was clear we were in the hands of true professionals who genuinely love what they do.
Captain Ryan took us to multiple locations, maximizing our chances to hook a variety of fish, and it paid off as we caught plenty and had a blast doing it. Throughout the trip, Ryan’s easygoing nature made it feel like we were fishing with an old friend. That kind of atmosphere can’t be taught, it’s just who he is.
If you’re thinking about booking a fishing charter, don’t hesitate. Anglers Choice with Captain Ryan and Andrew is the way to go. You’ll walk away with sore arms, great memories, and probably a cooler full of fish!

Being from Ohio, we had never had the opportunity to fish in the ocean or the Gulf.  Captain Ryan and first mate Luke made our first time a great experience! The boat was great, the equipment top notch, and these guys do not give up until you have fish in the boat! We had a great time and would certainly recommend Angler’s Choice to anyone looking to have a great fishing experience!
