GREAT Day On The Water

3/4 Day2 adults1 child

We booked 3/4 day with Captain Ron. He was prompt for pickup, greeted us with a smile and had the boat fully stocked with bait and bottled water. Our journey led us on an hour long boat ride to arrive at the first spot. As soon as we dropped lines in the water, fish began biting. It wasn’t long after we landed our first one. Having a 9 year old along for this adventure, catching fish to keep him entertained was pretty important. We moved to another spot and the same thing - Captain Ron knows where the fish are! He was patient and did a great job working with us. Highly recommend booking with Captain Ron!

    Last minute trip to Islamorada & found a great charter captain!

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    We thoroughly enjoyed our morning fishing trip with Capt Ron today. Ron gave us a great experience start to finish and had us catching fish the entire trip. We hooked a 6ft lemon shark on our light tackle & chased it for about 15 min until it broke free. We will definitely book with Ron when we are back in Islamorada!

    Fun trip with Captain Ron!

    3/4 Day • 2 adults

    My friend and I had a great time with captain Ron. It was rough and windy and Ron did his best to get us on the fish. We didn’t hit the target species but still had an enjoyable time!

    It was a pleasure Sorenson the day with Capt Ron. He is exactly what you hope a Keys charter captain is like. He is knowledgeable and a great teacher. Looking forward to booking with him next year!
