This is hands down the best all day party boat fishing trip you can take in the Keys. The crew works to put you on fish. Well managed as they take turns putting everyone at the back of the boat to fish. Loaded up in the chum balls and you were catching fish. The captain was a very personable and nice guy to discuss fishing and Keys attractions with. Not an old salt who could care less. Great place and the best 70 dollars you will spend all day

We booked a trip with Captain Tyler Valles to fish the flats and backcountry. Captain Tyler was very accommodating, extremely knowledgeable, and motivated to provide everything we wanted to experience. His experience and professionalism made this an outstanding trip that we will definitely book again the next time we are in the Keys.
