Cudjoe Key Fishing Report

The sun came out and the wind died down! Beautiful day on the water caught yellowtail (and paid barracuda tax), and a few mackerel. Got to see an impressive jump by a big ray, a d flipper popped up to say hi on the way in!

Alison was exceptional. As an outstanding captain, she made everyone feel safe and ensured our tour was a memorable experience! Our group included both experienced and novice snorkelers, and Alison’s knowledge and relaxed demeanor as a guide helped us make the most of our Keys charter. It was also a pleasure to connect with her, as she is a talented musician, part of a whole group of musicians. Additionally, as a military veteran, we are truly grateful for her service to our country.

We saw dolphins, sea turtles, and a 10-ft blue shark that circled our boat. On top of that, we caught some fish too. What an amazing day!

May 31, 2025

A day on the boat with Alison ends with you having a new friend or family member. As a former Coast Guard (Coastie) you know you are in the best and most capable hands you could possibly be in. She’s laid back, chill, fun and an amazing boat captain. All the stars in the sky recommendation because five falls short for this lady captain!

May 31, 2025

Awesome Captain. Knowledgeable of the area. Had a great trip to the rock pile, Content Key and learned about the Fat Albert blimp.

May 31, 2025

I was thrilled to introduce my son and son-in-law to the wonders of the ocean and its inhabitants, and with the help of Captain Alison, they fell in love with it!

May 31, 2025
