May 1 grouper season opened in Florida. We have some great spots to catch all of our grouper species, additionally Blue Line tile fish opened, so deep dropping is something we do while we are offshore looking for mahi and tuna.

Offshore Mahi Fishing is picking up here in Key West. When we offshore fish for Mahi or tunas we also typically hit deep drop spots to pick up bottom species like Vermilion or Yellow Eye snappers, Snowy Groupers and Tile fish

    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: Snorkel & Fish Combo

  • ★★★★★
    This was honestly one of the most disappointing charters I’ve had. I’ve booked numerous charters all over and in the keys. I realize fishing is fishing but we were greeted by a captain other than Dan, great guy but not what I expected honestly. Our vessel wasn’t prepared and ready to go so we waited longer than was expected and it pushed other plans back even further. We caught one 12.5 inch yellow that was big enough to keep. On other charters the boat is quite well prepared and ready to change course quickly to get you on the fish, not the case, granted it was a shorter booking I’ve still had much better equipped captains and vessels. So to spend the day bobbing for non existent apples was not at all ideal. It was so boring my wife and son chose to nap. So just be aware that if you choose this charter it may not go at all to plan. Sadly it was a waste of precious vacation time. I typically hate reading negative reviews and have never personally left one, but this seemed appropriate given the outcome. Good luck.

    Captain Dan and Ryan were fantastic. The ocean was pretty rough that day but they helped us have a great time and pull in quite a few fish. We’ll be back again next year and will definitely look to hire them again!

    We had a great day on the water with Captain Jim. He is incredibly knowledgeable about fishing in the keys. We would definitely rebook a charter with him.
