When you're ready to get serious about offshore fishing, Uno Mas Fishing Charters delivers exactly what you're looking for. This isn't some cramped boat with rusty tackle – we're talking about a top-rated 27-foot Conch center console that's built for comfort and performance. Whether you pick the morning departure at 7:00 AM or the afternoon trip starting at 2:00 PM, you're getting four solid hours on the water with everything you need to make it count. The best part? Your fishing license, all the bait and tackle, plus drinks are already covered. Just grab some snacks and get ready to put some fish in the box.
The morning and afternoon trips offer completely different fishing experiences, which is why so many anglers book both during their stay. If you're an early riser, that 7:00 AM departure is your ticket to the deeper waters – we'll cruise up to 8 miles offshore where the big players hang out. Mahi Mahi, Red Snapper, Wahoo, and Northern Kingfish are the primary targets, and these species are most active during the cooler morning hours. The afternoon crowd gets a different but equally rewarding experience, staying closer to shore where Cobia, Tuna, and Sailfish patrol the waters. Both trips max out at six anglers, so there's plenty of room to fight fish without bumping elbows. The twin 300 HP Mercury Verado engines get you to the fishing grounds fast, leaving more time with lines in the water instead of burning fuel getting there.
This 27-foot Conch is rigged exactly how a serious fishing boat should be. The outriggers are set up for trolling spreads, which is your bread and butter for pelagic species like Mahi and Wahoo. When we're working the morning offshore grounds, expect to see multiple lines out – typically four to six rods depending on conditions and what we're marking on the fish finder. The GPS and radar systems keep us on productive structure and help locate temperature breaks where baitfish congregate. For the afternoon closer-to-shore action, we'll often switch between trolling and live bait fishing, especially when targeting Cobia around structure. The livewell keeps your bait fresh and frisky, which makes all the difference when finicky fish are being picky. All tackle is tournament-grade stuff – no cheap reels that'll fall apart when you hook something substantial. Circle hooks are standard for most setups, which means better hookup ratios and easier releases if you want to let fish go.
Northern Kingfish are absolute rockets when they grab your bait. These fish typically run 15-30 pounds in these waters and they'll test your drag system right from the hookset. Kings are most active during the warmer months and love fast-moving baits, especially when trolled near temperature breaks or color changes. What makes them so popular with charter customers is their aggressive strikes and the way they peel line off your reel – plus they make excellent table fare when prepared properly. Look for them around dawn and dusk when they're actively feeding on the surface.
Red Snapper remain the gold standard for offshore bottom fishing, and for good reason. These fish are smart, strong, and absolutely delicious. Most Red Snapper in these waters range from 3-15 pounds, with occasional larger specimens that'll really make you work. They're structure-oriented fish, so we'll be fishing around reefs, wrecks, and ledges where they feel comfortable. Snapper can be finicky eaters, especially during the middle of the day, which is why fresh bait and proper presentation matter so much. When you hook a good-sized Red Snapper in 60-80 feet of water, they'll use every bit of structure they can find to try breaking you off.
Mahi Mahi are probably the most exciting fish you'll encounter on these charters. They're fast, they jump like crazy, and they often travel in schools, which means when you find one, there are usually more around. Mahi typically range from 5-25 pounds, with bulls occasionally pushing 40+ pounds. These fish are attracted to floating debris, weed lines, and temperature breaks – basically anything that concentrates baitfish. They're also known for their curiosity, so when you hook one, keep the other lines in the water because his buddies might stick around to see what's happening. Mahi are peak eating fish when prepared fresh, and their vibrant colors make for great photos before you decide whether to keep or release them.

The free cancellation policy with three days' notice shows they're confident in their operation and want customers to fish when conditions are right.

Get ready to hit the open water aboard the 27' Conch, a serious fishing machine built for chasing big game fish. This 2019 center console cuts through waves at 55 mph thanks to twin 300 HP Mercury Verado engines, getting you to the fish fast and back to dock with your catch. The boat handles up to 6 anglers comfortably, whether you're trolling 8 miles out for Mahi and Wahoo on morning runs or staying closer to shore for afternoon Cobia and Sailfish action. Modern electronics including GPS, radar, and fishfinder help locate the hotspots, while outriggers spread your lines wide for maximum coverage. The livewell keeps bait fresh and your catch alive, plus there's an icebox for drinks and snacks. Everything's included - licenses, tackle, bait, and beverages - so you can focus on fighting fish instead of gear prep.
Coryphaena HippurusMahi are the show-stoppers of offshore fishing with their brilliant gold, blue, and green colors that light up like a rainbow when hooked. These fast-growing fish average 15-29 pounds and love warm surface waters around floating debris, weedlines, and current breaks. We target them year-round, but spring and summer offer the best action when water temps climb. What makes them special is their aerial show - they'll jump, dive, and put on a real fight. Plus, they're fantastic eating with firm, white meat that's perfect grilled. They travel in schools, so when you find one, there's usually more around. Look for frigate birds working floating objects - that's where the mahi hang out hunting flying fish.
Menticirrhus SaxatilisNorthern Kingfish are smaller drum family members that pack a punch despite averaging 10-14 inches and 1-2 pounds. These greenish-bronze fish with silver bellies hang out in shallow coastal waters along sandy and rocky bottoms. They're bottom feeders with a single barbel under their chin that helps them hunt crabs, worms, and small fish. Late summer brings the best action when they move closer to shore. What makes them special is their scrappy fight - they'll surprise you with how hard they pull for their size. The meat is excellent too, white and flaky. Pro tip: use small hooks with clam or bloodworm baits fished right on the bottom. They're cautious biters, so patience pays off when targeting these feisty little fighters.
Lutjanus CampechanusRed Snappers are one of our most prized catches, growing up to 35 pounds with that classic bright red color. These bottom dwellers love structure in 30-200 feet of water - wrecks, reefs, and hard bottom. Most of what we catch runs 1-2 feet and 5-10 pounds, perfect eating size. They spawn May through October, making summer our prime season. What guests love most is the fight - they'll make strong runs toward cover trying to break you off, plus the meat is simply outstanding with that mild, nutty flavor. These fish live over 20 years and get smarter with age. My tip: drop fresh squid or cigar minnows right to the bottom and be ready to pull hard the second you feel that bite. They'll head straight for the nearest structure.
