Captain Joey

I was born and raised in Long Island, New York. I fished the Great South Bay since I was old enough to ride my bike. As a young boy, I worked filleting fish at a local fish market and wholesaler. This put me in the company of fishermen at a young age. I ran my own boat since the age of 15. I was catching Striped Bass, Fluke, Yellowfin, and Bluefin Tuna. I have been vacationing in the Keys each year since I was 11 years old, and each time we came down, I fell in love with the lifestyle and the fishing more and more. I thought the guides who used to take us fishing were the luckiest people on earth. In 2015 I left New York and moved down permanently. I have honed my skills and learned the fishery and the numerous techniques used down here. Come have a memorable day with us and get the same feeling I got all those years ago!

"Amazing trip with Captain Joe"

​

It’s been a long time since I last booked a charter as I have a boat as well as have had bad experiences in the past with Charters. However, we decided to still book a charter bc our boat was still being worked on and if in the Keys, you have to fish! This experience was a great one! Extremely knowledgeable Captain and was great with the boys (13 & 17). Caught our limit as well which made it even better although even if we didn’t, still was a great time!! Highly recommend Captain Joe and we will be booking another one next time we’re down here.

On a 4 hour trip we will fish some local channels, bridges, flats and islands  in the Florida keys. Water and ice is provided on board. This is an ideal trip to introduce young people and families to the Florida keys fishing experience without the commitment of an 8 hour day. 

3/4 DAY

6 Hours

A 6-hour trip will take us out chasing speckled trout, mangrove snapper, and, if we're lucky, snook! We will run out into the gulf and fish the grass flats with popping corks and other methods (live bait, artificial lures). If the weather is not on our side, we will switch gears and hit some local spots and target barracuda, jack, and mangrove snapper. A great trip for any experience level!

FULL DAY

8 Hours

Starting at
$1100

A full day trip gives us the time to run into the everglades backcountry. Anglers have the opportunity to try different fishing techniques and see the beautiful unique landscape the everglades national park has to offer. We will use artificial baits and live baits depending on time of year and availability.   This is where we will target snook, redfish, speckled trout, various species of inshore sharks and always a shot at the elusive tarpon.
