Keith was great and the whole trip was worth it

Six Hour Back Country2 adults

Got the 6-hour charter for my wife’s birthday. She had a blast seeing all the beautiful sights of the back country while also catching snook, trout, ladyfish, and jacks. We also saw dolphins, manatees, sharks, and tarpon. We kept four trout and got them made for us at Hog Heaven, after Keith fileted and prepared them for us. Delicious. Keith gave clear instructions and was always amped up and ready to make our experience the best it could be. All in all an amazing day.

    Inshore Slam! Amazing adventure.

    Six Hour Back Country • 2 adults

    I can't recommend this trip enough! Captain Keith was an excellent guide - enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and passionate about the water. He knew exactly where to find the fish, and the action was very consistent. At one spot, we caught 15+ snook on nearly back-to-back casts! In addition to snook, we landed redfish, trout, jacks, snapper, permit, and even a 4.5-foot blacktip shark. We also hooked into an enormous tarpon that leapt out of the water. The scenery of Everglades National Park was just incredible. We watched sharks hunting in the shallows, spotted a manatee, and even saw a crocodile off in the distance. The boat was perfect and well-equipped. The meeting spot was also convenient and easy to find. This was a truly amazing adventure that way exceeded our expectations. We will definitely be booking again. Thank you, Captain Keith, for an unforgettable day on the water!

    Beautiful Day

    Half Day Trip – Flats Fishing • 1 adult

    4-hr trip fishing in the Everglades National Park. Landed many speckled trout, jacks, and ladyfish. We hooked a tarpon in the 50-lb range, which jumped once and was never to be seen again. And had a smaller fish ambushed by a hungry blacktip. Toss in some wildlife (sea turtles, white pelicans, and about 3 dozen flamingos), and it made for a great day. A big thanks to Captain Kevin.

    Good educational experience

    Full Day Trip • 2 adults

    We wanted to target Snook and Captain Keith put us on some right away. We ended up catching 3 and a series of other fish, including sea trout. We also fished a couple Everglades environments that had really tremendous wildlife (in addition to good fishing). Captain Keith was personable and ensured we had a good time.
