About Your Trip

Explore the waters around Key West on a flexible mixed bag fishing trip targeting a variety of inshore and nearshore species throughout the day. These trips are built around adapting to conditions, moving between different types of structure, and targeting whatever is biting best.

Fishing may take place around mangrove shorelines, channels, small wrecks, and shallow structure within sight of Key West. Depending on seasonality and conditions, potential catches include Mangrove Snapper, Mutton Snapper, Tarpon, Barracuda, Jack Crevalle, Grunt, and several shark species.

This trip offers a mix of techniques including light tackle fishing, bottom fishing, spinning gear, and occasional fly fishing opportunities.

You’ll fish from a 22’ Pathfinder Tournament Edition equipped with GPS, fishfinder, live bait well, cooler, and all required fishing gear.

All rods, reels, tackle, lures, and fishing licenses are included with the trip, and live bait may also be available depending on the season.

If you’re looking for a flexible Key West fishing trip that allows you to target multiple species and experience different styles of fishing throughout the day, this trip offers a great way to stay active on the water.

About Your Guide

Todd M.

Independent Guide

Captain Todd has spent years fishing Florida waters from Tampa Bay to the Keys, both inshore and offshore, building a strong background across a wide variety of fisheries and techniques. He originally got started kite fishing in Miami before eventually focusing much of his time on the inshore and nearshore waters around Key West.

Today, he specializes in targeting Sharks and Tarpon, spending his days chasing some of the hardest-fighting fish the Keys have to offer.

Captain Todd still approaches every trip with the same excitement that got him hooked on fishing in the first place and enjoys sharing that experience with anglers of all skill levels. Whether you’re looking for nonstop shark action, a shot at a trophy tarpon, or a laid-back mixed bag trip around Key West, his goal is to create a fun, straightforward, and memorable day on the water.
