We headed out for a 3/4 day fishing charter in Everglades National Park, and conditions were excellent — Sunny, Calm winds. 

We put together a great mixed bag — a few nice Mangrove Snapper, several Snook, good numbers of quality Spotted Seatrout. All fish were carefully released to fight another day. The live shrimp under a bobber and artificial tackle was the ticket today, keeping bites coming throughout the trip.

The highlight of the day — having a shark eat the bobber like a topwater.

This weekend’s trips produced excellent action across the Florida Keys, with steady bites and a great variety of species coming over the rails. On our Florida Keys fishing charters, anglers enjoyed productive conditions and nonstop opportunities throughout the day.

We put together a solid dinner catch of mangrove snapper, landing a bunch of nice-sized mangrove snappers that were perfect for the table. The snapper bite stayed consistent, making for a fun and rewarding inshore fishing trip.

The highlight of the weekend was an absolute beast — a giant jack crevalle that took nearly 20 minutes to land, putting both angler and tackle to the test. These powerful fish are known for their strength, and this one did not disappoint.

Adding to the excitement, we also landed a flounder, which is a rare catch in the Florida Keys and always a cool surprise on a guided fishing charter. Along with that, we caught several miscellaneous species, keeping rods bent and action steady throughout the trip.

We headed out for an afternoon Florida Keys half day fishing charter, and right from the start the action was steady. This trip was extra fun because it was the crew’s first time fishing, so we spent a little time going over the basics, teaching bait presentation, how to fight fish properly, and how to stay tight on the bite. They picked it up fast—and I’d say we trained them right!

The mangrove bite fired up as the tide started moving, and before long we were boating quality mangrove snapper one after another. We ended up catching our full limit of snapper, perfect for a fresh Florida Keys dinner and exactly what they were hoping for when they booked the trip.

In between snapper bites, the jack crevalle showed up and kept things exciting with their powerful runs and drag-screaming fights—always a blast, especially for first-time anglers experiencing that kind of pull for the first time.

Overall, it was an awesome afternoon on the water with great people, plenty of laughs, steady action, and a cooler full of fish heading back to the dock. If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly Florida Keys fishing charter, a half day trip is a perfect way to get hooked on fishing!

We headed out early in the Florida Keys for a morning half day fishing charter, and conditions couldn’t have lined up much better. Light winds, moving water, and comfortable weather set us up for a fun morning of steady action.

Working along mangrove shorelines and structure, it didn’t take long before we hooked into a solid Florida Keys snook. The fish put up an awesome fight with strong runs and powerful headshakes before coming to the boat. We took a quick photo and safely released it to swim off healthy.

From there, the bite stayed consistent. We caught plenty of  Florida Keys mangrove snapper, giving anglers nonstop action. Jack crevalle also kept things exciting, crushing baits and putting on drag-screaming runs that always make for great memories on the water.

Overall, it was a classic Florida Keys fishing morning—beautiful weather, constant rod-bending action, a quality snook, and plenty of happy anglers on board.

We headed out into the Gulf for a full day Florida Keys cobia fishing charter, and the action kept us busy from start to finish. After finding good life and steady bait, we were able to hook into three solid Gulf cobia throughout the day. Unfortunately, the sharks were hungry and managed to get two of them during some intense battles right next to the boat.

Luckily, we were able to land one beautiful big cobia, putting a great fish in the box and a huge smile on everyone’s faces. Outside of the cobia action, the fishing stayed consistent all day, allowing us to bring back plenty of other quality fish like big Jack crevalle and a few nice tripletail keeping rods bent from morning to afternoon.

Overall, it was an awesome full day on the water with great weather, exciting cobia hookups, a memorable big fish, and plenty of fillets heading home with the crew.

Date: 10/4/25

Weather: Sunny very calm and about 80 degrees

What we caught: 20 trout, 4 redfish, 5 snook, and 1 big lemon shark 

Description: We fished hard today, focused on completing a backcountry slam. The morning started along the shorelines where we landed several solid snook, the biggest measuring 26 inches — and lost an even larger one right beside the boat. From there, we moved out to open water to target trout and found a big school, catching around twenty before leaving them biting to chase the final piece of the slam. We wrapped up the day poling shallow flats, sight-fishing for redfish pushing wakes through skinny water. The lemon shark was the cherry on top — drag-screaming runs and a long, hard fight. To finish it all off, we took first place in the tournament!

Date: 7/11/25

Weather: Sunny and calm

What we caught: 15 trout, 1 redfish, 1tarpon, and 1 snook 

Description: We fished the Friendly Flamingo Fishing Tournament today and started the morning strong with a 31.5-inch snook, followed shortly after by a small 22-inch tarpon. From there, we moved out to open water around 8 feet deep to target trout and caught plenty, though none quite big enough — they needed to be 15 inches to count, and our biggest measured 14.75". After that, we switched gears and went after big redfish, landing a solid 26.5-incher. Even though we didn’t place in the tournament because of the trout, we still had an awesome day on the water and finished with a super slam. This tournament is always competitive, but it was a great day all around!

Date: 6/21/25

Weather: Overcast slightly rainy day

What we caught: 1 Tarpon

Description: Today I fished solo during late tarpon season, scouting for new spots. I found quite a few tarpon in pods — very healthy fish — but when I threw a topwater, I spooked them. I think they didn’t like the noise and preferred something quieter. Sometimes you have to learn tough lessons, but it was a low-pressure day just fishing for fun. I managed to land one big fish and had a few bites. Solo scouting trips like this are how all my spots have been discovered, so days like these are necessary to keep learning about our unique fishery that changes every day.
