Dauntless Fishing Charters is veteran-owned and based out of beautiful Islamorada, FL. We specialize in providing a service to disabled veterans and veterans with PTSD, but everyone is welcome to have the time of their life on our trips.
Captain Mark Gibson will be leading the way as you explore the waters in search of your next big game catch. Capt. Mark is a U.S.C.G. licensed Captain and a 100% disabled service-connected U.S Navy Veteran. He has been saltwater fishing all his life. His goal to share the beauty and fun of fishing the Florida Keys with every U.S. veteran, or anyone that wants to catch fish or just get out on the water.
Your fishing charter trip with Capt. Mark will begin in Islamorada and go on to cover the fishing grounds of Lower Matacumbe Key, Plantation Key, Tavernier, Key Largo, Layton, and many other wonderful locations in the Florida Keys.
Our trips will take place aboard Capt. Mark’s stunning 22ft Ranger bay boat, which was built in 2019 and provides enough room for 4 guests to fish comfortably. It is powered by a 150 HP Yamaha 4 Stroke engine with a maximum cruising speed of 40 knots. This speedy vessel is equipped with all the proper safety equipment, a GPS, and a fishfinder for locating schools of fish. It also has a wireless trolling motor for sneaking up on those easily frightened fish species.
We offer 4, 6, and 8-hour trips that provide you with tackle, rods and reels, bait, and a fishing license. After the trip, our crew will prepare your catches for you to take home and cook for dinner. We practice several different fishing techniques including bottom fishing, drift fishing, jigging, trolling, spinning, popping, and light tackle fishing.
You will have the option to target many exciting fish species including, Barracuda, Grouper, Snapper, Snook, Speckled Seatrout, Tarpon, Redfish, Permit, Sharks, and many other fish that call the Florida Keys home.
