Full Day Trip – Offshore
The day started off slow but the captain never stopped moving and working to get use on some fish which didn’t take long. The captain worked hard once we got on the fish and he never stopped. The boat was nice and clean and all the gear was great. The captain was very helpful and had loads of tips and tricks. Would definitely recommend and would use agin.

3/4 Day Trip – Offshore
My 16 year old daughter and I had an excellent trip with Captain Frank and his mate Shawn. Folklure Charters is a top notch operation! The boat is well maintained, clean, dry ridding, smooth and fast. Rods and and tackle were all in very good condition, great quality, well organized and ready to fish. We arrived early at the dock and the boat was ready to go fishing. The bite was slow in the morning, but this did not discourage the Captain and he kept running (much further than the other charters) until we found the fish. Most of the numerous dolphin we caught were small but we did get some keepers. Captain Frank was not satisfied with the catch so fished most of the way back in until we found some tuna! The Captain and Mate are great people and I would highly recommend them to anybody looking for a fun time on the water.

Half Day Trip – Reef/Wreck
My father in law and I asked for something more than just small yellow tails and Capt Frank put us on some really nice late season grouper. His boat and gear are top notch and well taken care of. He is very knowledgeable and will tell you what is in season and what can be caught. He also gives you the freedom to fish the way you want or will cater to how you want to be taken care of. I can not say enough about Folklure Charters and what a great first experience in the lower keys we had. If you are coming down here and are searching for a nice boat, a very good and hard working captain, and want to catch quality fish, this is the charter you want. Worth every penny. As a kicker, we did the hook and cook at Tonios. It is where you get picked up and dropped off. We just walked in with our fish, chose 3 different ways for it to be cooked and it was amazing. We had nearly 8 pounds of fillets and 6 people. It cost $89 to feed everyone….it was our bar bill that raised the cost. Can not wait to come back and fish with Capt Frank again.
