Highlights
  • 27424 Guadaloupe Ln - We’ll head out to the lower Florida Keys back-country where we’ll fish for a variety of species such as Tarpon, Bonefish, Permit, Shark, Barracuda, Snapper, Sea Trout and a plethora of others in the gin clear waters of the shallows and flats. There will only be the three of us so you’ll have a personalized guided trip and my undivided attention whether your asking questions about our unique ecosystem and its surroundings or the techniques and equipment we’ll be using to stalk and catch fish on the most fertile and pristine fishing grounds on planet Earth!\n\nWe’ll typically be fishing depths of two feet to eight feet deep so the visual experience is like nowhere else in the continental United States. \n\nOnce we finish our excursion you’ll be brought back to our original departure point and you can enjoy some some excellent island eats and tropical cocktails like the locals do at the famous Looe Key Tiki Bar & Grill on Ramrod Key. There’s also a gift shop on property so you can pick up some souvenirs for yourself, friends or family members!

Great Dad & Son Fishing Trip - Captain Jim was an awesome fishing guide - friendly, patient and knowledgeable. He even fetched me a beer while I was reeling in snappers! Great experience and highly recommended.

My first time fishing in the Keys. - Captain Jim was great. Taught my wife and I a lot about fishing in the Keys. We didn’t catch a lot of fish, but the experience was fantastic. We will definitely go on another fishing charter with Jim.

Tough conditions, but Captain Jim still put us on fish. - The sea was angry that day, my friends.. November winds can make fishing challenging, but Captain Jim didn't let that stand in the way. We caught some amazing Mangrove Snapper, as well as a barracuda and a few other fish. Jim was very patient, showing us proper techniques to land fish. After we were done fishing, Jim cleaned and de-boned our catch and recommended a local restaurant who would cook them for us. It was the best dinner we had during our stay. I will definitely book another trip next time I come to the keys.

Be ready to reel ‘em in! - Captain Jim is the real deal! Expert guide and we fished the current on the flats in the morning. Limited out on mangrove snapper and yellowtail snapper. Fantastic dinners with those fish! Boat is good for two, not more. Captain Jim is a very nice guy, down to earth and a great teacher as well. Highly recommended!

Fun fishing trip - We made our reservations several weeks in advance and were pleased when Capt. Jim contacted us the day before we were to go out with him to make sure we knew where and when he would meet us. At the appointed time, he was at the pier ready to go. After taking a few minutes for a required (and common sense) safety briefing, we were on our way. The boat was comfortable for the two of us. Almost as soon as we dropped the anchor, we started catching fish. After we returned, he cleaned our catch and put the fillets in an insulated bag with crushed ice. Captain Jim is a knowledgeable and very personable man and made our trip a real pleasure. When we come back to this area, we plan on booking another trip with him. Highly recommended.

Don’t look any further!! Captain Jim is by far the best guide you will ever find!! - We can’t say enough about Captain Jim. He is a great guide and went far beyond making our first saltwater fishing experience the best ever!! He definitely knows his fish and will put you exactly in a position to catch every time you cast. He cleaned and filet our fish and sent us to Hogfish Grill where they grilled, fried, and blackened our fish!! Absolutely amazing. It was definitely the highlight of our first trip to Key West and will definitely be back next year with Captain Jim. Thank you again!! See you next year

Highlight of our trip! - Highly recommended!! Our fishing charter experience was outstanding. Capt Jim was knowledgeable, experienced, patient and had a great sense of humor. He taught us and brought us to the fish! We caught several and had a blast doing it. When the charter was finished, Capt Jim filleted our fish, and packed it on ice in a soft-sided cooler that he provided for us. We were able to cook and eat our catch later that day. We even had enough that I was able to make ceviche with the snapper fillets! Thank you, Capt Jim! We really enjoyed sharing the day with you and will definitely book our next charter with you again.

Excellent Fishing Experience - My son and I went fishing with Captain Jim and had an excellent experience. Jim's boat was clean & comfortable and he quickly put us on the fish. There was never a dull moment as we caught fish one after the other in all sizes and types. I fish regularly and learned quite a bit from Jim's extensive knowledge of the area and how to catch the many fish that live there. My son isn't a fisherman and Jim was great at teaching my son exactly what to do to be successful catching fish. It worked, we caught more fish than we could count. After the trip Jim cleaned up the fish and packed them in ice and sent us to a restaurant where they prepared the fish 4 different ways. They served them family style and our whole group was able to enjoy the meal. Big thanks to Captain Jim for a fun day in the Keys! I highly recommend contacting Jim for a day on the water.
