Marathon, Florida
Reported 3 years ago
The migration of the larger pelagic fish are coming threw the Florida Keys on there way to the Gulf of Mexico. It is a site that only happens a few times a year. Sailfish, marlin, blue fin tuna, cobia, mahi-mahi, black fin tuna, ect. One of the best time of the year for us. It’s all site fishing with live bait. The numbers can be staggering. We caught and released 28 sail fish a few days ago. Only in 100' of water or less. Only 5 miles offshore. Exciting time in the keys. Come on down and go fishing.

    Captain Larry took our Girls’ Trip ladies out for an afternoon cruise. We spent time leisurely snorkeling beautiful reefs then relaxing on the sand bar. The time went too quickly but we never felt rushed. Larry was very friendly and accommodating to our group.

    Trip: Flats Backcountry Quest

  • ★★★★★
    Kevin was an amazing guide. He was very knowledgeable and provided easy step by step instruction instructions while fighting 2 - 5 foot lemon sharks in less than 1/2 hour before daylight faded. Both were unkooked boat side with great video and pictures. His boat is clean and organized making it safe and easy to move around the boat while battling a catch of a lifetime for 2 Wisconsinites. Thanks Kevin. See you soon.

    Trip: Half Day Little Torch Key

  • ★★★★★
    We had an amazing time iguana hunting! There were thunderstorms in the distance when we arrived, and I honestly thought the trip would be canceled—but our guides, Wesley and Matt, knew exactly what they were doing. We never got a single drop of rain and they spotted way more iguanas than we ever would have on our own. The only thing I’d do differently is bring my own flashlight. They had plenty to share, but not enough for everyone to have one at the same time. Highly recommend this adventure!
