Operating from a number of different locations throughout the Keys, Over Under offer a combination of backcountry, flats and offshore fishing trips, all of which can be booked either by the day or as part of a package deal. Also offered are live-aboard trips to the Dry Tortugas.
Captain Ann Holahan is a flats and backcountry fishing guide who’s been fishing the waters of Islamorada and the Florida Keys for over 20 years. She can organise single days, multi-day trips and packages including accommodation.
Captain Jeffrey Cardenas offers personalised guided fishing around the Key West area in addition to his customised exploratory trips around the Bahamas and beyond. If you fancy a tailor-made wilderness bonefishing trip, Jeffrey could be the man to make it happen.
Captain Bob Beighley is your guide at Double Haul Charters, specializing in sight fishing the shallow waters of the Lower Keys for bonefish, tarpon, permit, shark, barracuda and more. He offers a multi-disciplined approach, catering to light-tackle spin fishermen and fly-fishermen alike.
Captain Pete’s ‘Islamorada on the Fly’ charters specialize in fly and light-tackle fishing on the flats and backcountry of Islamorada, Florida Bay and Florida Keys.
Sitting in the heart of Islamorada, the ‘Sportfishing Capital of the World’, Bud n’ Mary’s is a legendary place – since 1944, it has been home to more than 40 offshore and backcountry fishing captains, the subject of countless magazine articles and TV shows, and gateway to some of the region’s finest fishing. Whatever your fishing poison, you’ll find the right Islamorada fishing charter here.
Host Gordon Baggett proudly claims this place to be the only inclusive fishing lodge in the Florida Keys. It’s quite a place too – a luxurious five-room hideaway in the heart of the Keys, with superb amenities and service, and fully-customisable fishing program that focuses on sight-fishing for bonefish, tarpon and permit.
A chain of roughly 1,700 islands stretching for 113 miles from Miami to Key West and quite simply a fisherman’s paradise. What makes this place so special is not just the consistently excellent sport, or the stunning backdrop (thought that all helps, certainly) but the sheer variety.
Heading to the Upper Keys puts you within easy range of the Everglades and sport from snook, tarpon and redfish, head a little further south and you’re in Islamorada where a mixture of red-hot deep-sea fishing and incredible backcountry fishing have helped earn this place the tag of “sportfishing capital of the world”. That trend continues down into the Lower Keys and Marquesas, where the tarpon is royalty, permit are worshipped and bonefish grow to incredible sizes. And if you fancy something a little laid-back, party boats and split charter reef-fishing options abound in Key West. Get in the car, head down Route 1, stop anywhere you like and start fishing – you can’t go wrong.
