Our much anticipated fishing trip was a concern due to weather conditions. The day before I messaged Anthony, the Captain and he assured me the conditions would be fine. He provided exact details on his slip location, provided an email reminder and gave me a call in the morning to ensure we were all set. The day began with excellent music and instructions and details on the days events. We had 4 fishermen and 1 along for the ride (and photo taking). The boat was spacious and well equipped for the full day. Both Captain and Firstmate had many years experience fishing in the Keys. Firstmate Brian did an excellent job monitoring all the lines with variety of bait and lures based on conditions. Captain Anthony and Firstmate Brian reacted with attention and speed whenever we had a fish on the line.
We were met with great success- as all were satisfied with their catches of the day. Firstmate Brian certainly knew how to get the fish on the line- Service and attention were delivered throughout the entire trip. We enjoyed learning about the area, the types of fishing techniques and stories that entertained our trip. But what do we do with all this fish…. Anthony set us up with Kaya- an excellent restaurant on Duval who prepared our fresh catch. Scott and his staff at Kaya provided an excellent meal. We are already making plans for another trip and will reserve this team again. Highly recommend!!!

A hard working captain that wants you to enjoy your trip
The lines were checked often so they were clean to present to the fish for the best bite.lines were never tangled and spread out to perfection
He wants you to hear the lines being pulled off the spool and you fight it and land it on the boat
Fish always taste the best when you catch it and cook it within 30 minutes of getting off the boat.

Everything was Excellent from start to finish! Captain Anthony and First Mate Brian were Absolutely Wonderful!  Both were very funny, friendly, communicative about what we were doing and why, and showed a high level of concern for our comfort and safety.  My daughter was super appreciative that Cap. Anthony heard her humming a song, knew what song it was, and then put on the sound track with her song in it. Very aware and attentive to all his clients needs. Not to mention we caught 9 fish and kept 7. It was a great variety. We caught King Fish, Mackerel, Bonita, I caught a Barracuda that we let go, and hubby caught a Dolphin (Mahi Mahi) we had to let that one go also because it was too small. It was my Husband’s Birthday trip and our daughter’s first Deep Sea Fishing trip and first time to Key West. They helped to make it, as my husband said, “The Best Birthday Gift Ever!”  My daughter, who is a teenager, Absolutely loved it!  She caught the Largest 2 Fish in our family and broke my record for the Best Fisherman in the Family. Absolutely worth it!

Anthony graciously facilitated the crafting of a tailored trip that exceeded expectations! The vessel was impeccable, he adeptly guided us to abundant fishing spots, and his suggestion to dine with Scott at Kaya for a cook-your-catch experience was truly delightful. Now, my 15-year-old son aspires to join Captain Anthony’s crew. Many thanks, Anthony—we eagerly anticipate our next encounter with you.

When you want to go fishing, you want an experienced and competent captain, and if you have someone who’s fun in addition, that’s excellent. That’s what you get with this charter. The boat is tremendous with all the fishing equipment you want, a bathroom, all the water you could drink, and just a comfortable fun fishing experience. I highly recommend and will be back again.
