24/7 Sportfishing – Calm Backcountry
24/7 Sportfishing is located on Geiger Key, just outside Key West with quick access into the backcountry of the keys. Catching fish is a bonus to an already breathtaking trip.
You'll be visually scanning pristine water and sight fishing using light spintackle or fly fishing techniques for Barracuda, Tarpon, Snapper, Permit, Jacks and Shark depending on the season and conditions of the day.
Your fishing adventure starts on a restored 17’ Maverick flats skiff with a NEW 4stroke 90 HP for instant speed up to 40 mph. It can safely take up to 2 anglers.
It’s recommended to bring polarized sunglasses and maybe a towel.

Chris MaddenRepeat angler5.0VerifiedExceeded expectations.
4 Hour Trip – Backcountry-Morning on January 2, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 childCaptain Neil was great, he was knowledgeable, accommodating, and went the extra mile (literally and figuratively) to deliver a half day of fishing that was the highlight of my son and I's vacation. Our general idea ahead of time was that we'd like to catch some snapper for dinner, and maybe a shark for some excitement, and despite challenging water conditions (water was calm, just not ideal temperature, etc) he made adjustments on the fly to keep us on fish the whole time, and the pictures speak to our results. We had a fantastic time, and plan to return on our next trip. Captain Neil knows his stuff, and was patient, and welcoming.

5 Hour trip- Shallow Shark Fishing on December 18, 2025 • 2 adults⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Spending the last two days with my 10 yr old son on Neill’s boat was an absolute top-tier experience. Neill is the definition of professional, hard-working, dialed in, and fully committed to making sure everyone has an incredible time on the water. His knowledge of the area is unreal, and it shows in how effortlessly he puts you on fish. The variety of fish we caught over the two days was impressive, and every spot we hit felt intentional and well thought out. If you’re looking for someone who truly knows these waters, hustles all day, and delivers an unforgettable fishing experience, Neill is your guy. Can’t recommend him enough and can’t wait to come back.

4 Hour Trip – Backcountry-Morning on December 10, 2024 • 1 adultBooked a solo trip with Captain Neil. Hands-down, the best guy I know to go fishing with. You will not be disappointed. He got us on the fish right away and kept us on the fish all day. Great guy, and easy to get along with. I had a fun time and I’ll be back. Thanks, Captain!

4 Hour Trip – Backcountry-Morning on April 14, 2022 • 2 adultsMy 10 year old son and I had the PERFECT trip with Captain Neil. You will not find a nicer captain on the water. He put us on the fish all day and worked so hard to make sure we had a great experience. This was the highlight of our trip to the Keys. Can’t wait to book again in the future.
