Booked this hoping the girls would have a great time. The Captain was awesome and did his best to make sure they all caught some fish. Had a great time and really enjoyed it. Next time we're back at Sugarloaf we're definitely doing this again.

A fantastic half-day of fishing with Cam. His local knowledge was excellent, and he was very personal and involved. We caught every type of fish we set out to catch. We plan to schedule with him again.

Capt. Camden's fishing trip provided us with an enjoyable day in the Keys. We began with some sport fishing; we didn't catch anything, but we had a great time casting. We caught several various types of fish when we started chumming, and Cam filleted them for us so we could have a delicious meal that night! Most importantly, I enjoyed Capt Camden's calm and upbeat approach with our two sons—he answered every single question while keeping an eye on the lines and preparing for the next catch. This was an excellent day that I wholeheartedly recommend!!

Camden put my entire family on fish coming off some really tough conditions the past week. Couldn’t ask for a better finish to our trip. Thanks Camden.

Held Fast Charters is top notch. Camden is very professional and knowledgeable about his craft. Although I have fished all my life in other angler area as, this was my first experience backcountry fishing. Camden made the experience effortless and fun. This was my first trip to the keys. The scenery and wildlife are amazing. Fishing is incredible. He offers a variety of services even if fishing isn’t your thing. I would highly recommend Held Fast and plan on another trip out with him soon!

Captain Camden is the best fisherman I have ever met. With experiences that range from largemouth bass tournaments in Georgia, fly fishing trout guide in Yellowstone, salmon run guide in Alaska - it is no surprise that he can put you on the fish in Key West. He is smart, ambitious, and eager to give you the trip of a lifetime. I highly recommend Held Fast for any type of backcountry fishing you want to enjoy. Sea Trout, Barracuda, Tarpon, you name it and Cam can hook you up!

We had a great time with Cam from Held Fast Charters! We caught barracuda, hogfish, grunt fish, and pin fish. We also saw an Eagle ray and a pod of dolphins. Cam was a great guide, and was able to help everyone in our group (from complete novice to pretty experienced) - and everyone had fun! Cam also filleted the hogfish we caught, which we can’t wait to eat it tonight. We would absolutely come back to fish with Cam and highly recommend anyone who wants to fish near Key West to book a trip with him!
