They got us excited about everything we caught, taught us so much, and made the entire trip enjoyable. We caught a parrot fish within the first 15 minutes, but were informed we couldn't keep it, so after a quick picture, we released it back into the ocean. We also caught multiple cero mackerel, yellowtail, and more. Definitely worth the money. Will only book with them when we return to the Keys. Thank you guys so much, you made our trip the best yet!

They helped with baiting the hooks, unhooking the catches, cleaning the fish, and providing unparalleled entertainment. We couldn't have asked for a better day on the water, the fish were biting and the weather was absolutely perfect. The captain kept putting us right on the fish and we ended the trip with plenty to bring to a restaurant for a hook and cook dinner. I can't recommend this place enough, the price is right and the people running it and keeping it going are great. The captain even let us know when a pod of dolphins were nearby so we could enjoy seeing them! Such an unexpected and great bonus to the day! It is BYOB if you want, but onboard they do have some beverages and snacks for purchase (cash only on board), but we brought our own which worked out well. Tickets can be purchased with debit or credit cards, but cash on board is king for drinks/snacks, tips, and fish cleaning so make sure to bring some cash for your day on the water! If you're in the middle keys and want a great value for a fishing trip without a full charter, this is the best there is and totally worth it.

Sad to say, we're retiring our tradition of going out on the Marathon Lady every year for our anniversary trip.

So I gave them a call and I am so glad that the other place was booked up because this is by far the best charter I've ever been on. We snorkeled, had snacks, learned how to sail (a bit) and it was just amazing. My ten year old twins want me to book again tomorrow. Captain Scott and skipper Brody are outstanding. They made our day! Fresh fruit, yogurt, bagels and great sailing. What more can you ask for! Book with these guys! You won't regret it! Cannot beat the experience of the service. Don't go anywhere else! I'll be booking another tour, hopefully before we leave to return home, my husband had to miss it and after he heard about it from us, he wants to go :). Don't miss out on these guys!
