You’ll fish aboard the captain’s 22’ Scout bay boat that accommodates up to 4 people (2 can fish at the same time). She’s powered by a 150 HP Yamaha 4 stroke engine. Capt Jeff installed a fighting chair on the bow of the boat, specially for Tarpon trips. There’s also a cooler to keep your drinks cold and a T-top to keep you in the shade.

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Tarpon, Bonefish, Permit, Snapper, Snook, Lemon Shark, Bonnethead Shark, Jack Crevalle, Redfish, and anything else that bites. Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself light tackle fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Ben also offers fly fishing and provides all the gear you will need.

These waters are teeming with Tarpon – with any luck, it won’t be long before "Fish on!" On these trips, you can expect to spin.

When it comes down to the unspoiled flats of the Florida Keys, Kingfisher Backcountry Charters is an excellent choice. Whether you are a curious novice angler or an experienced fly-fisherman, there is a trip for you.
