Whether sight fishing for sailfish, trolling for Mahi Mahi or fishing for tarpon,
Captain Mike and Key West Florida Fishing Charters like to run a different type of charter – one where the customer is involved. You're not just sitting in a chair and reeling in fish; you hook your own fish and fight it all yourself. The crew is there to teach you to help make you a better angler. Their motto is Patience for the beginner and Competence for the expert. The only thing they ask is that if you are not having fun let them know immediately so they can work to fix it.
Book today and join Captain Mike aboard the Compass Rose for a fishing adventure like no other.
