The most commonly sought after species for kite fishing are: 1. mahi mahi, 2. sailfish, 3. kingfish, 4. wahoo, and 5. blackfin tuna.

How much do kite fishing charters cost?

Prices kite fishing can range anywhere from about $900 to $4,950, but the average price for a half day trip kite fishing is $1,617. The average price for a full day trip kite fishing is $3,148.

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

What month is best for going on a kite fishing charter?

The most popular season to go on a kite fishing charter is spring, and most anglers book their trips 20 days in advance.

Do I need a fishing license and what are the bag limits?

    Trip: Key West Mixed Bag Trip

  • ★★★★★
    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.

    Trip: Key West Fishing Slam

  • ★★★★★
    We didnt get to meet Captain Ron but we had a great time with his employee Captain Lucas. Lucas did a fantastic job of explaining what he was doing each step of the process. The water was rough and the wind was blowing extremely hard but the big boat kept us comfortable. Even through the tough weather conditions, Lucas put us on the fish and we had a blast! Would highly recommend them. Dont let Lucas young age fool you. He is great at what he does. William & Jessica
