No fishing? Hmmmm ….

Wanda_S, May 2026

Not everyone will be able to fish. Only 1 person of my party of 3 actually held a rod. I paid for 3 people to fish. Boat is not in great condition and something happened to motor on way back and it took over 2 hours to get back to land. AC was either not working or it was hot in cabin because doors were left open. The crew was great and knowledgeable; however to spend that much money, not be able to fish, and take hours to putt putt back to land was a bit much. Only 2 barracuda were caught. We expected mahi mahi, but was told that front came through day before and wasn’t great condition for fishing. So why not reschedule? Will not be doing this again.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry the trip did not meet your expectations. Shared fishing charters are designed so multiple guests rotate through rods throughout the trip, especially when conditions are slow or fish are not actively biting. Unfortunately, the weather front that moved through the day before made for very tough fishing conditions across much of the fleet that day, which the crew did explain onboard. As for rescheduling, weather in Key West can change quickly, and while fishing may slow after a front, many trips the following day can still produce great catches. If we canceled or rescheduled every time conditions looked less than ideal, many guests would lose opportunities to get out on the water altogether. Regarding the return trip, we did experience a mechanical issue on the way back, and we apologize for the delay getting to shore. While frustrating, safety is always our top priority, and the captain made the proper decision to bring everyone back safely rather than rush the vessel. We do appreciate your comments about the crew. Our captains and mates work extremely hard to make the best of difficult conditions and give guests the best experience possible, even on slower fishing days.

Great experience for everyone!

Captain Nels & Mate Larry made the trip exceptional! They both made sure everyone on the trip had a great experience. Have never gone deep sea fishing before, and they were very helpful - caught a sailfish! They had GREAT communication from booking until the trip, and even after!

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you for the great review, Kelly! We’re glad to hear Captain Nels and Mate Larry made your first deep sea fishing experience such a memorable one. That’s a big catch for a first trip-landing a sailfish is something most anglers never forget! It’s great to hear they kept the communication strong from booking all the way through the trip and made sure everyone onboard had a great time. That’s exactly the kind of experience we aim to deliver on our shared charters-fun, productive, and welcoming for all experience levels. Next time, if you’re looking to try something different, you might enjoy one of our shark fishing adventures or even a trip out to the Marquesas Keys. And don’t forget-go to BiteBackBrand and under Local Legends, go to Cowboy to get your t-shirts and other gear. We appreciate you fishing with us and hope to see you back out again soon!

Fishing is fishing

Had a great time on the ocean. We didn’t catch anything big but I still had a great time. It was great to get out in the water.

Response from Host, May 2025

Thank you for the great review! We’re glad you enjoyed your time on the water—sometimes just being out there is what it’s all about. We’d love to have you back and hopefully get you on some bigger catches next time. We also offer shark fishing trips, Marquesas Key tours, and fishing and sandbar combos for a different kind of adventure.
