Fall fishing is in full swing here in islamorada. Offshore fishing has been great on the calmer days with plenty of mahi and some great tuna fishing as well . Not to mention a great bottom bite for vermillion snappers and more .
The reefs have been producing some good snapper bites and startling to see some mackerel showing up in good numbers to .
We have also had some great lobster days. The water is still warm and clear making it a blast to get out and stack some bugs before the cold fronts start .

Fall is picking up right where our summer left off. Hot fishing and some cooler weather makes it that much more enjoyable for everyone! Plenty of bait starting to show up and the fish are happy!

Fishings been good when the weather is not in the way with all the rain we've had. But been in the backcountry the last few weeks lots of red fish Snook tarpon have been around. On the offshore side the blackfin tunas have been biting really well and there's still some mahi around.

    I can’t say enough positives about Captain Ken! His preparation for the trip payed off big time! Including my first tarpon and snook! We caught multiple of each. He is super personable but also works relentlessly to find the fish for you. If you are serious about fishing, Ken is the guide for you! Highly recommend!!!!!

    GW is the man! My wife and I booked a fly fishing / spin fishing trip. He had us on fish all day long, and went out of his way to make sure we had the absolute best time we could! He asked us ahead of time what we wanted to target, how we wanted to fish, etc and incorporated all of it into the trip. His knowledge of the area and the fish are impressive as well. We'll 100% book with him again when we visit next time!

    Trip: Offshore Islamorada Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Our trip with Aaron was enjoyable even with the choppy waters. Aaron’s boat was extremely clean and we felt safe aboard. He had radar/fish finder there to help pick a spot and dropped in some bait to entice the fish. He helped bait hooks for us which was very appreciated even by our more experienced angler. We caught mostly yellowtail and they were fun to reel in. Lines were snapped by some bigger fish so we’ll always tell the stories of the ones that got away! Thanks for helping make the trip happen.
