    Captian Gary is the man

    Half Day Trip • 2 adults

    We booked the half day trip with Captain Gary and had a blast!! It was a great time on the water even though the fishing was tricky. We still made the best of it an caught: tarpon: ✔️ trout: ✔️ snook: ✔️ black drum: ✔️. The black drum on the flats was something we didnt expect to run into but they were a blast to sight cast at and hook into! Captain Gary was a great guide and I will definitely be booking with him again when I come back to the keys.

    Reported catch:
    Tarpon

    Great Trip

    Half Day Trip • 2 adults

    We had an awesome day on the water. Captain Gary is a good dude and we had a blast. He worked hard to get us on snook, tarpon, trout, and jacks. We cannot recommend Captain Gary enough and we are looking forward to the next trip!

    Incredibly knowledgeable captain

    3/4 Day Trip • 3 adults • 1 child

    Captain Gary was awesome! I’ve gotten to fish in Puerto Rico, Bahamas, Mexico and various places in the U.S. this past year and I would venture to say he’s the most knowledgeable captain I’ve had, he was great with teaching my son some tips on casting. He was great. I cannot say enough good things about him. Definitely recommend booking with him!

Šta se peca sa Ivory Keys Charters u Islamorada

Kobije počinju da se pojavljuju, ponekad u velikim jatima. Migracija cipala privlači Sailfish blizu obale, zajedno sa poslednjim Blackfin Tuna. Ovo je takođe odlično vreme za pastrmku i brancina u plićacima.
