Introduction - If you plan to go fishing in the Florida Keys area, the best option is to book a fishing charter. Forget about the complications and leave the job to an experienced captain and his crew. They will take care of anglers, licenses, live bait, tackle and cleaning of fish. They will also filet, package, and freeze your fresh fish. You will only have to worry about food, drinks, sunscreen, and having fun.

Rates - Rates for booking a Florida fishing trip go from $550 to $950. There are options for all budgets and schedules: half a day (4 hours either in the morning or in the afternoon) for $550; three quarters of a day (6 hours) for $650; or a full day for $750. You can also book deep bay or deep offshore trips for $800 or tarpon trips (either in the morning or afternoon) for $400. If you want to catch some big tarpon and multiple species of fish but have limited time, your captain can also organize a trip tailored to you. For example: tarpon fishing in the morning, then a half day offshore, reef or backcountry, followed by tarpon fishing again in the evening.

Fishing Calendars - You can catch a wide variety of sportfish species in the Florida Keys, among them: amberjack, barracuda, blackfin tuna, blue marlin, bonefish, cobia, grouper, king mackerel, dolphin, permit, sailfish, shark, snapper, tarpon, wahoo, white marlin, and yellowfin tuna. Before booking your Florida fishing charter, it is advisable you check a Florida Keys fishing calendar in order to know about the best recommended fishing dates for your favorite sportfish species. For example, tarpons are available all year long, scarce from October to March, but fairly abundant from April to June, while white marlins are available from May to August only.

Boats and Equipment - The best fishing experience can be provided only by an experienced captain and his crew, an excellent vessel, top quality fishing tackle, rods, reels, onboard GPS and Depth Technology.Fishing in the Florida Keys demands a extremely versatile vessel, one that provides an excellent performance, be it offshore, backcountry, or tarpon fishing. Look for a vessel that's able to fish both the bay and the ocean, able to fish all gamefish species in the entire Florida Keys region.When it comes to rods and reels, trust Shimano, and when it comes to fishing lines, trust Sufix. Expert fishermen usually choose Northstart GPS equipment for their geolocation electronics needs, and Furuno Electronics for depth finders technology.
