If you're ready to go fishing in Marathon, book a trip with Ariel Medero. Your guide for the day is Captain Ariel, bringing aboard their professional experience.

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Red Grouper, Gag Grouper, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, Cobia, Goliath Grouper, Black Grouper, Sailfish, and anything else that bites. During the trip you might be light tackle fishing, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Ariel also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.

Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are permitted onboard — bring your favorites for a boost of energy when needed!

You'll be fishing aboard a 25' Center console with space for 4 passengers. It comes with outriggers, and everything you need for a productive day on the water. What's more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Bottled waters are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, come aboard with Ariel Medero and get hooked!
