I have been fishing in Florida my entire life. My brothers and I grew up fishing with my father who was a commercial fisherman in South Florida. Whether it's inshore or offshore, deep-sea or flats, let me share my knowledge and techniques with you. Hope to see you soon!

    Exceptional experience!

    4 Hour Trip – Reef • 6 adults • 2 children

    We had an incredible experience with Captain Jake at SaltnSun Charters in Marathon! We did two trips with him—one for lobster and another for reef and wreck fishing. Captain Jake hustled the entire time and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. He was especially great with our two small children, even surprising them with chocolate chip cookies! He also brought fresh mango and pineapple, which was an awesome touch. Great captain, great boat, and an even better experience. We’ll definitely be booking with Captain Jake again next time we’re in the Keys!

    5 stars!! If i could leave 10 stars i would!

    8 hr humps trip ( troll deep drop) • 4 adults • 1 child

    We had an absolutely amazing time on our fishing charter with Captain Jake! From start to finish, he made the whole experience fun, exciting and unforgettable. He was especially great with my 12-year-old! He was super patient, encouraging, and made sure he was having a blast the entire time! We limited out on tuna, caught mahi and even saw a great white!! We caught a ton of fish, learned a lot, and created memories we honestly will never forget. Huge shoutout to his first mate Bryan as well, he was awesome, super helpful, and kept everything running smoothly all day. When we were done fishing Captain Jake even recommended a lovely dinner spot where we could bring the freshly filleted fish we just caught and have it cooked the same night, it was incredible! You can really tell he cares about what he does and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone has a great time. Highly recommend booking with him if you’re looking for an awesome day on the water. We will definitely be back!

    Awesome way to spend Easter Sunday!

    8 hour (Full Day )Reef Trip (8-4pm) • 4 adults

    We booked a full day of deep sea and reef fishing for Easter Sunday. It was a little windy, but not too rough. Captain Jake was great and tried to keep everyone comfortable while we headed out to the fishing spots. My teens loved the bean bags! We all had a fantastic day catching lots of snapper, giant grouper (Goliath and black fin - but had to throw back since not in season), a huge moray eel, parrot fish, and puffer fish. Captain Jake kept all the lines running and had all 4 of us fishing all day. He took pics and sent them to me after. We had a couple big ones that took lots of fight and he was great with our kids, guiding and encouraging them with some good natured teasing thrown in to keep everyone laughing. We caught enough snapper for our Easter dinner and Jake cleaned all of our fish for us and sent us home to cook up a delicious dinner. We had a wonderful day!

    Great Fishing Trip

    Near shore fishing • 6 adults • 2 children

    Booked a 4hour nearshoe trip in August. Jake was willing to extend to 6 hours but based on the heat he advised against it. Good idea. It was a very hot day but he did great keeping us cool with drinks, pineapple, and a dip in the water. Set the bait and helped reel fish in with still letting us feel part of experience. He cleaned fish and gave us a recommendation where to get it prepared. Took pictures through our trip for us. Trip was 4 adults, 2 kids ages 11/9. Based on the size of fish and reels, kids were not able to be hands on with all reeling.

    Reported catch:

    Tough day of fishing made successful

    8 hour (Full Day )Reef Trip (8-4pm) • 5 adults

    We chartered an 8 hour reef trip with Cap Jake and it was a tough day for fishing in general. Jake was very knowledgeable throughout the entire trip and was well prepared. He worked his butt off trying to put us on fish all day. Most impressive was when our trip was scheduled to end, he wasn’t satisfied with what we had caught and spent an additional 2 hours to try a few more spots. We ended the day with a nice variety and the beat recommended spots to prepared our fresh catch. Highly recommend Captain Jake!

What's biting with Saltnsun in Marathon

Kiša konačno popušta u oktobru, a temperatura se vraća na razumnih 29 stepeni. Tuna je u ovo doba godine na vrhuncu, sa Yellowfin i Blackfin vrstama koje dobro grizu na pučini, dok su Tarpon i Snook i dalje brojni u plićacima.
