We’ve been seeing a fair amount of yellowtail snapper on the reef, with some mackerel mixed in. If you’re targeting these toothy fish, make sure you have some wire ready to go. You don’t want to be caught without it when a mackerel shows up!
The wrecks are also producing some nice amberjack, and these fish are ready to put you to the test. Be prepared for a serious fight—and with September heat still hanging around, bring plenty of water and stay hydrated.
From the backcountry around Big Pine Key and Bahia Honda to the reef, wrecks, and offshore waters toward Marathon, there are plenty of opportunities
The hot weather has not stopped the fish from chewing! Both inshore and offshore fishing have been productive, and most of our guests have returned to the dock and immediately enjoyed their fresh catch at our dockside restaurant, Mac’s Place.
Inshore, we have been catching plenty of healthy mangrove snapper, many upwards of 20 inches. A few late-season tarpon have also been caught. There has been no shortage of big sharks and barracudas cruising the flats for anyone who wants to go home with sore arms!

The offshore bite was a little slow at the beginning of the month but has improved tremendously. Mahi, wahoo, blackfin tuna, and even a few sailfish have been caught anywhere from 100 to 2,000 feet of water.
The fishing is good, the crowds are thinning out, and it is a great time to get out on the water in Key West!

Kevin is a great guide. Very knowledgeable of the area waters and a genuine pleasure to talk to. He put us on the fish in no time and we caught our limit of snapper along with a bonus snook and jackfish. I highly recommend him for your choice.

Wonderful Trip! First charter we have ever been on and couldn't have asked for a better morning! Captain Tim is 10/10 guide, knew the perfect spots to be, great at coaching, and great taste in music. Tim cleaned the fish for us and everything. Will 100% be booking with Captain Tim again.

Captain Troy was fantastic!!!! He got us on tons of fish. First time deep sea fishing and what an experience!!!! All four of us hooked onto mahi mahi at the same time and were so excited!! Dereck, the first mate absolutely worked his tail off keeping bait on all lines and helping us haul in allllll the fish!!!! We caught black fun tuna, mahi, and even a wahoo! Banner day, couldn't have asked for a better fishimg charter. If you dont wanna be disappointed book Capt Troy and the Miller Time boat!!

What an awesome experience. Kevin is fantastic! He knew the water and the fish and we had an amazing experience. Caught snapper, ladyfish, jack, snook, and even pivoted quickly to a lemon shark when we knew one was near by. It was a memorable adventure and I would highly recommend Kevin! Kevin also knew the area well and we went to the Lazy Lobster to have our catch cooked. So much fun! Thank you Kevin!
