About Your Trip
Step aboard for an unforgettable shallow-water adventure with Captain Justin and his team—your go-to guides for flats fishing in Key West! These trips dive into the pristine Backcountry north of the island, where white sand flats, calm mangrove channels, and untouched wildlife refuges come together to create one of the most scenic and productive fisheries in the world.
This isn’t just fishing—it’s a front-row seat to wild, unspoiled Florida Keys beauty. The area you’ll explore
includes the Great White Heron and Key West National Wildlife Refuges, where the waters still look like they did hundreds of years ago.
Your main targets? The legendary "Big Three" of flats fishing:
🎯 Tarpon – explosive power and acrobatics
🎯 Permit – elusive, strong, and built for the chase
