Have you been spending your salmon fishing with the same fishing destination over the past years? Chartering a fishing
Boat Fishing Charter a few miles from downtown Key West has paid off for many savvy visitors who have seen the natural beauty that the Duval-Street-dwellers never do. Plus, some of these charters will pick you up from your hotel and offer access to yacht club facilities like pools, beaches, restaurants, and bars that others do not.
Take this opportunity to catch numerous species of fish including white and blue marlin, tuna, dolphin and wahoo. If you are happy to keep the outing going when seas are too rough to go offshore, and you want to be able to convert to bay fishing, make sure that's an option.
Private charters also make it more likely that fish will be caught since there are fewer people competing in the small space. We have put together this simple step guide to starting your fishing charter business. A charter boat often has technical equipment such as high quality sonar or radar in order to find the largest schools swimming below the surface of the water.
Chartering a boat with friends or colleagues is a fun and cost effective method to ensure that even if the fish aren't out the day you are on the water you'll still have a day to remember (and a crew of mates with who to share your story about the one who got away!) Chartering a boat is a relatively simple process, and can make the day very simple to organise.
The basic categories for private charters are most commonly Sailboats, Cruising Yachts, and Fishing Boats. Imagine catching a fish that weighs over 10 pounds and having to reel it in from water as deep as 40 or 100 feet. With seasonal runs overlapping, there's always a wide variety of exciting fishing to leave anglers with a lifetime of memories.
Boat features fully enclosed and Air Conditioned salon with bench seating and table dinettes, upper deck access and seating for sunbathing or sightseeing, fishing 360 degrees around the boat and she can fish up to 70 people, clean Men's and Women's restrooms, live bait wells and a full galley inside.
Multiple day trips to the Bahamas or Keys can be arranged for repeat clients. Being on the open water tends to help people grow closer together as they learn they are part of an experience being shared by only those in the same boat, so to speak. At Fish Key West, we work with seasoned local Key West Charter Fishing captains with decades of experience on Key West and Florida Keys waters.
