Bucket list trip for the bachelor!
Sailfish, Mahi and more!
This week out of Key West, the reef and offshore waters delivered a mixed bag. There were plenty of bites, though many were on the smaller side. Still, we managed to land a few solid keepers, including some nice Mahi. The real highlight? A group of young anglers brought in their very first Mahi—a great milestone and a fun moment for everyone on board! Conditions have been steady, and the bite is active, especially on the troll. If you're planning a trip soon, now’s a great time to get the family out and enjoy some hands-on action with a reliable local charter.

We had two great trips the week with Captain Kevin. He does a great job of keeping lines baited and putting you on fish. We had a great time!

Captain Todd and Grey Beard were teriffic! We caught and released more sharks than I could have imagined for a 4 hr trip. Grey Bush had us cracking up, making sure we had bait in the water and tackled all those sharks. He provided us a fantastic gift to remember the outing. Captain Todd even did me a solid the following day. To end the trip, my daughter got to reel in a large nurse shark as an exclamation! I don't normally leave reviews, but these guys deserve it. Well done!

Perfect 4 hour trip on the water with Capt. Todd! Even in the windy conditions he put us on the fish. Highly recommend.

Beautiful day for fishing and complemented by big fish due to the knowledge and work ethic displayed by Captain Kevin. He had no hesitation to rig for mahi and sailfish per my request to spend the full day targeting species that just started up, in the case of the mahi, and sailfish which are hit and miss just recently. Burned fuel, bait and rigs which rewarded us with some nice mahi, including a 51 inch, 25lb bull and a slamming 21lb blackfin tuna to round out the day. No misses all day and lots of nimble seamanship on Fishizzle’s 33 foot Mako. This outfit is the real deal.
