BOOK & BEND SOME RODS

From quick reef runs to full-day offshore hunts, our private fishing trips are built around you. Target shark, sailfish, snapper, tuna, and more with custom options that include offshore trolling, reef & wreck fishing, and deepwater battles.

Go short. Go long. Just go fish.

  • Run 100+ miles offshore to Pulley Ridge—one of the most remote and productive deepwater fisheries in the Gulf. Drop lines hundreds of feet down targeting yellowedge and snowy grouper, tilefish, queen snapper, and other deepwater giants.

    For those ready to go the distance, extended deep-drop expeditions are available based on conditions, with additional fuel cost.

  • Run 70+ miles west of Key West to the remote waters of the Dry Tortugas and beyond, where pressure is low and the fish are big. Target grouper, mutton snapper, tuna, cobia, and more in some of the most untouched fishing grounds in the Gulf.

    For those ready to push even farther, extended runs beyond the Tortugas are available based on conditions, with additional fuel cost.

  • Fish through the night in remote, hard-structure zones where giant cubera snapper come out to hunt. Target true trophy fish under the cover of darkness, along with grouper, amberjack, and other heavy hitters that feed after hours.

    For anglers ready to go all in, extended overnight runs are available based on conditions, with additional fuel cost.

  • Chasing big fish? We’ve got the gear, the local knowledge, and the drive to put you where the action is. From marlin tournaments to bucket-list trophy hunts, our specialty trips are built for anglers who want the real deal—not just a ride.

  • Fish the rich waters within 35 miles of Key West, targeting a wide range of species including snapper, grouper, mahi-mahi, and tuna.

    If you wish to explore further offshore, we can accommodate extended runs upon request for the additional fuel cost.
