5 star ratingWe just got back from a day on the Miss Islamorada, it was a blast!!! The captain and mate were awesome! They went out of their way to make sure we were all having a great time. Being the only woman on the boat I was a little worried but they made me feel so comfortable they even helped me get the biggest fish on the boat!!! I can't wait to go back. I just wanted to add I wasn't at the back of the boat and still caught the biggest fish!!!

5 star ratingMy grandson's saltwater fly-fishing triumph. Mt grandson and I did a full day charter with Capt Nate Blackburn. We targeted Salt water fly-fishing. My grandson really wanted a Shark. Capt Nate put him on at least 7 sharks and he had 2 solid takers. He also caught Barracuda, Jack Cravelle, Redfish, Snapper and a large Sheepshead, all on his fly rod. I had a blast with Spinning tackle. We caught 40 to 50 fish overall. We saw a Bald Eagle and a large saltwater crocodile! We have a Life time of memories. Capt Nate knows how to fish this area!

5 star ratingBud N Mary's set us up with Captain Mike Basset and we had an awesome morning of trout fishing. Windy day so the Captain recommended the trout fishing and the 3 of us hit our fish limit in under 4 hours. Captain Mike filleted our fish in ten minutes and we had the most unbelievable lunch. Highly recommended.
