Excellent Charter Experience - Capt Ed and his first mate son Michael were a great team and gave us (husband & wife) a great charter experience. They were friendly, fun, low key, attentive, hardworking and they got us on the fish in a big way! We did a 4 hour afternoon trip and we came home with a cooler full of fish that they cleaned for us and directed us to a local restaurant who cooked some for us that night! We would definitely recommend this charter and we will be back next year… next time to try their offshore experience.

Great family fishing trip - Had an excellent time fishing with my two boys age 8 and 14. We caught plenty of fish which we took to a local restaurant for a delicious dinner. Captain Ed and his first mate Mikey made sure we had a great time and were well taken care of. They had a cooler full of cold drinks, all the bait, poles and tackle we needed. They would bait our hooks, take the fish off the line and when we were finished, Mikey filet the fish and packed them up for us to enjoy. Captain Ed and Mikey are very professional, patient with my kids and made our experience fun and exciting. I would highly recommend wet tails fishing to anyone.

Memorable Fishing Excursion with Wet Tails Charters - Our family of 5 went on a 4-hour fishing excursion with Captain Ed & Mike on Christmas Eve. This was our first trip to the Florida Keys. Despite a few periods of rain, Ed and Mike made this a memorable day on the water for our family. Their patience, expertise, and experience are top-notch and it was quite evident that they love what they do! Our boys had the opportunity to catch fish that we don't see up North. We would highly recommend Wet Tails Charters & will book with them the next time we travel to the Keys.

New Years Eve Day Fishing Excursion - Captain Ed and his son Mike made our fishing trip fun. They took care of everything, and we all caught lots of fish. This was the highlight of our trip to the Keys. I would definitely recommend booking with them.

Great day of fishing in Marathon! - We had a great time on our fishing Charter, the father and son (Captain and first mate) made my wife and me feel like family within a few minutes of meeting them. We caught more that 30 fish of more than 7 varieties, my wife caught 2/3 of them, I think they were giving her lucky bait :) Best thing all is they aren't clock watchers, they were happy if we were happy. We are planning to go out again next month with another couple. Do yourself a favor and book this, you won't be disappointed.

Fun day fishing - We had a great time with captain Ed and his son Mike. They went above and beyond to get us on fish and along with the good conversation and company it was a great time. We will definitely see ourselves going fishing with them again.

Fish, fun and sun - My wife, son and myself went out with Captain Taylor and his wonderful son. We went on both the east and west side of Marathon. We caught plenty of fish and had a wonderful time. Captain and his first mate are great at giving an experience of ocean fishing without having to know or do much of the work. We'll worth it!!
