About Your Trip

Are you ready for an offshore fishing adventure that will leave you with stories to tell for years to come? Look no further than this offshore deep dropping trip with Captain Larry down in Islamorada, FL!

This isn't your typical fishing trip. You'll be targeting all kinds of deepwater trophy species, including Blackbelly Rosefish, Queen Snapper, Yellowedge Grouper, Snowy Grouper, Tilefish, and more!
Captain Larry's 37' Merritt sportfisher is specially designed for deep-sea fishing, and you'll be heading out over blue water to catch the big one. As you make your way offshore, you'll be surrounded by crystal-clear waters teeming with life, so keep your eyes peeled for sea turtles, sharks, and maybe even a pod of dolphins!

Once you've reached the fishing grounds, Captain Larry will give you the rundown on how to "deep drop". You'll have access to top-tier heavy gear so that you can pull up massive bottomfish!

When you finally hook a big one, the real work begins. You'll need to use all your strength and skills to bring one on board. But the sense of accomplishment you'll feel when you finally haul in a massive trophy will be worth every second of the battle!

Don't settle for an ordinary fishing trip—join Captain Larry and experience the thrill of a lifetime!

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
