As the storms pass by us the winds have calmed and the seas are coming alive with an abundance of fish.
The Black-fin Tuna have moved into town and the bite has been red hot! Catching most fish by early morning with most bites at first light.
Snook season is here and we are seeing tons of Snook across the shallow flats and along several mangrove islands.
The month is looking very calm and filled with opportunities to catch some real nice fish!

Four hours on the ocean provided a lot of action and produced. We got meat in the cooler and memories in the bank.

4hr trip out of Key Largo. We fished the reefs and had a lot of action. Calm waters with an east wind made this trip fun for everyone.

An epic 3 days of fishing. Calm waters off Key Largo provided some amazing fishing. We had 2 large bull sharks that agreed. They took their share, but I think we still had a good haul.

Matt Green and sons, AJ and Aiden, had an outstanding day in the backcountry near Flamingo in Everglades National Park. The boys caught about 20 snook (we lost count!), redfish, jacks, trout and saw lots of sharks! They even got to see bottlenose dolphin and a bald eagle to round...

Had an awesome time out on the water with Christopher. From start to finish everything was smooth, laid back, and just a great experience overall. He really knows what he’s doing and made sure everyone was having a good time the whole trip. We were on fish, the boat was great, and the whole family had a blast. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip—would 100% book again.

Trip: South Florida Inshore Fishing
★★★★★
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!

Trip: Back Country Bonanza
★★★★★
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!!

Trip: Key Largo Bays And Backcountry
★★★★★
Took a trip out with my dad and we had a fantastic time. Captain Ken put us right on the fish throughout the entire day with ease. We were able to catch multiple species of fish steadily throughout the entire day without any lapse. In addition to catching big fish, we were able to see a nice variety of wildlife (dolphins, sharks, osprey, saltwater crocs, numerous species of birds). I would highly recommend booking a full day trip with Captain Ken. You will catch high quality fish and have a very pleasant day.
