5 star ratingGreat spot to grab a fishing charter. From what I hear it's much cheaper than key west. Pre order some lunch from the trading post up the street and bring it along. I can't wait to book my next trip and spend at least 2 days fishing.

5 star ratingCaptain Trent’s fishing excursion in the Florida Keys Our fishing excursion with Captain Trent was all that I hoped for and more! He was so knowledgeable and helpful. My husband and I are both elementary school teachers, and we were both very impressed with how good he was with our kids! He was patient, and extremely encouraging! He made small talk with us and even acted as a tour guide by going to places that he knew we would be able to see crocodiles and other Florida wildlife while we fished. Both my husband and son were able to catch lots of fish, and my son was over the moon about catching his dream fish, a tarpon, even though it isn’t tarpon season! We had such a great time, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone!
