Kipp GreeneRepeat angler5.0VerifiedAmazing day
Full Day Trip on April 1, 2026 • 5 adultsWe had a terrific time! Captain Phil and Mate Ryan worked extremely hard for us and made sure we had a great time and caught some amazing fish on a really tough day. Most boats reported no catches but we got a beautiful (and delicious) wahoo for my daughter and a monster sailfish for my son. We had action all day so we never had time to get bored. This crew worked so hard to make it a once in a lifetime trip for my daughter and son. Making sure they got perfect photos with their fish and even letting my son help in the release of the sailfish. I have fished all over the world and I have had some good crews but these guys genuinely wanted it to be amazing for my family. No other crew I’ve had has done as much (and done it so nicely) as these guys did. I will only fish with these guys in Key West from now on.
Justin Stokes5.0VerifiedGreat Experience
Half Day Trip - 1:00 PM on March 1, 2026 • 2 adultsWe had Tom as our captain and Ryan as our first meet and they were amazing! They definitely made sure we caught fish and had a good time! They were very knowledgeable about the area and the fish we caught. They filleted some of the fish when we got off the boat for us to eat raw and to take with us. It was amazing. They recommended we have the fish cooked at the southernmost café and the chef did an amazing job! They cooked our fish in multiple ways. overall amazing experience.
Nicholas Sklavenitis5.0Verifiedcaught a tuna
3/4 Day Trip on June 28, 2026 • 2 adultsI had a great time fishing with my brother. The crew was really awesome and we caught a nice tuna. A shark came up and got it at the very end which is too bad but still had a great trip overall. I would recommend this guide for anyone. just brung sunscreen, and plenty to drink. 
Jason Wilson5.0Verified1/2 Day...wasn't long enough
Half Day Trip on August 15, 2026 • 4 adultsBooked a half-day trip with Capt. Billy and Joe, and just ten minutes into setting the lines, we were already catching fish. The action didn’t stop until we headed back to shore. We’re already planning our next fishing trip in May. An amazing experience with an outstanding crew!
Kennie Garlington5.0VerifiedThis crew doesn’t give up
3/4 Day Trip - 2:00 PM on August 8, 2026 • 2 adultsHad a great day on the Linda D V. Larry was working the lines as hard as he could for 8 hours straight, and although we didn’t fill the cooler we definitely got enough to make it a great trip, including a trophy-quality dolphin that gave a great fight.

Marcus Ward5.0VerifiedExcellent Experience
3/4 Day Trip on April 9, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 childrenWe took our family out for a 6 hour trip and everything was perfect. The guides were amazing with our two boys and made sure their experience was memorable. We appreciate their attentiveness to our boys and the conversation was great. We caught many tuna and got on a school of mahi! Our kids were amazed. If you are looking for a family friendly fishing trip, I highly recommend this crew. We will be back!!

Tom and Ryan were absolutely great! We had a great family day and caught 52” Dorado, 40” Wahoo! kids had a memorable experience for sure. Will use them again and would highly recommend. Our youngest caught a fish of a lifetime. Book early for your trip and plan on a full day to get the entire experience.
