Father and son duo, Bill and Jackson, caught several over slot redfish and a few black drum on a recent trip to Flamingo in Everglades National Park. Kenny Brogan from Jumping Branch, WV came down to get out of the cold and caught some quality backcountry fish, all on artificial.

We've been catching 5 miles from shore. Those are just some of the fish we caught. The inshore fishing has been pretty good!

January has been hot and cold! And by that I mean hot fishing despite the cold weather! Most of our fish have been resilient of the colder water temps and still very happy. When the sun is out, so are the fish and that's what makes our winter months fantastic...

    We will book with Captain Jason again. Captain Jason is awesome, he made our trip fun and memorable.

    Trip: 3 Hours Of Fun

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Pete from Black Water charters was fun and professional. A third generation backwater captain knows the secret spots and how to catch fish even in imperfect windy conditions. Capt Pete was putting us on the fish. We hooked up on tarpon, specs and a big ole 7 ft nurse shark too. Fully recommend! Urban Cowgill April 2026

    Trip: Epic Islamorada Inshore

  • ★★★★★
    Had a great day with Captain Dan and first mate. We pomptly set off and had a fantastic time pulling in a Mahi and half a dozen tuna. The trip was as much as we hoped for…good weather, great crew, and some fish to be cooked at a local restaurant. Highly recommend this charter and will definitely be booking again for some other fishing if/when we make it back to the Keys. Thanks Dan and Pete!

    We had a great trip out of Key Largo with Mark and Chris today! Got on some fish early and had a good catch for the day. The special fish was a giant Mutton Snapper. Super fun! They were very thoughtful and accommodating with our kids. Highly recommend!

    Trip: Islamorada Tarpon On Fly

  • ★★★★★
    Capt. Ron was a true professional. He called me the morning of our departure to ensure we were still interested in the fishing trip since the weather was not fantastic (high winds). He provided details about the length of time to travel to/from the fishing spot and conditions while fishing. When we arrived (earlier than scheduled departure time) he was ready and willing to get started early. He put us on the fish and showed us how to cast and catch. We caught so may fish we could not take time to take pictures (except the few attached). It was an awesome experience and hope to book with Ron next time we are in Islamorada. 10 thumbs up!!
