About Your Trip

On this trip with Captain Sal, you'll drift and bottomfish over Islamorada's offshore barrier reefs and wrecks, looking for Groupers, Snappers, Hogfish, and more. These areas provide tons of cover and structure for reef species, which congregate here looking for food and safety. Whether you're new to offshore fishing or an old hand, you'll be able to hook up a cooler full of delicious table fish! Hogfish in particular are known for their flavor and white, flaky filets.

Captain Sal has years of experience chasing fish on the reefs, so let him be your guide. He's full of helpful advice, and has tips to help you improve your bait presentation, hook set, and fish-fighting skills. Generally, you'll be dropping lines down over the reefs to attract bites, but can also drift fish, or even do a little bit of trolling depending on the conditions and target species.

You'll be aboard a beautiful 38' custom Jarrett Bay sportfisher, a purpose-built fishing vessel that matches speed with comfort. With twin 350-HP Mercury outboards on the back, and a full cabin, you'll be cool and comfortable as you get out to the fishing grounds. Get out there and have a blast!
