This is one of the more budget friendly fishing tours in Key West. Nevertheless, there is no lack of professionalism in this business. They really care that you catch a fish and will do anything they reasonably can to further that end. We all caught various kinds of tunas. I just saw one of the hardest working deck-hands, maybe the hardest working person I've ever seen in my life, running around vigilantly keeping our lines up and baited for several hours nonstop. All the while he maintained the best attitude and was uncommonly polite. This is stuff you don’t seem to see any more.

Captain Hans and mate Caleb were fantastic. Caleb worked incredibly hard to get everything ready and prepare us to have a great time. Both were on the lookout for the best spots and if we weren't catching, we moved on to the next location until we found some fish. Caleb worked like crazy to get fish off the hook and lines back in the water. 4 of us were on the boat and we all got to reel in multiple fish. Ended up maxing out our catch limit. Great overall experience!
This fishing experience was wonderful and great for the novice, experienced and anyone else. Captain AJ and mate Tyson were diligent about making sure we got on the fish and had a great day.
Such a great experience with Talon and Captain Paul. They even filleted the fish when we go back to the dock

Thank you for the 5-star review! We're so glad you had a great experience on your 6-hour shared deep sea fishing trip aboard the Irish Cowboy.
We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to Captain Paul and Talon. Our crews work hard to make the entire experience enjoyable, from getting you on the fish to cleaning and filleting your catch back at the dock so you can enjoy it afterward.
We really appreciate you choosing Cowboy Cowgirl Sportfishing Charters for your Key West fishing adventure. Next time you're in town, we'd love to have you back for another shared trip, a Private Offshore Fishing Charter, or one of our Shark Fishing Adventures.
And don't forget—go to BiteBackBrand and under Local Legends, go to Cowboy to get your t-shirts and other gear.
Thanks again, and we hope to fish with you again soon!
Water was rough, the fishermen can’t control the weather. That being said, one person in our party got seasick despite using prescription patches.

Thank you, Kim, for fishing with us and for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate you recognizing that weather and sea conditions are one part of fishing that neither the captain nor crew can control.
We're sorry someone in your party became seasick despite taking precautions. Even with medication or patches, rougher conditions can unfortunately affect some people more than others.
We're glad you were still able to catch some fish during your 6-hour shared deep sea fishing trip. Our crew always works hard to make the best of the conditions Mother Nature gives us and provide everyone with the best fishing experience possible.
We appreciate you choosing Cowboy Cowgirl Sportfishing Charters and hope you'll join us again on a calmer Key West day. Perhaps next time you'll try one of our Private Fishing Charters or a Shark Fishing Adventure for a different experience.
And don't forget—go to BiteBackBrand and under Local Legends, go to Cowboy to get your t-shirts and other gear.
Thank you again for spending the day on the water with us!
Best deep sea fishing! So many fish! And in the end the kids got to feed the tarpon and and manatee! Captain Nels and Mate Daniel were amazing!!! Definitely recommend - they even told us where to go get our fish cooked for dinner - which was also amazing!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that your family had such a successful day aboard our 6-Hour Shared Deep Sea Fishing Charter in Key West.
It sounds like Captain Nels and Mate Daniel put you right on the fish, and we’re glad the kids enjoyed not only catching fish but also feeding the tarpon and spotting a manatee afterward. Those extra moments often become some of the best memories of a Key West fishing trip.
We’re also happy the crew could point you toward one of our local restaurants to have your fresh catch prepared for dinner. There’s nothing quite like enjoying fish you caught yourself after a great day on the water.
Thank you for recommending us, and we hope to see your family back again soon for another shared fishing charter, a private offshore fishing trip, or even one of our exciting shark fishing adventures.
And don’t forget—go to BiteBackBrand and under Local Legends, go to Cowboy to get your t-shirts and other gear.
Thanks again for choosing Cowboy Cowgirl Sportfishing Charters! We look forward to fishing with you again on your next Key West vacation
All trolling
You basically wait till they catch a fish for you and hand the rod to you!! In our case we caught nothing
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry your trip did not produce the results you were hoping for.
Fishing conditions can vary from day to day, and while our crew works hard to put guests on fish, no charter can guarantee a catch. During the time of your trip, fishing was challenging throughout the area, and many boats were experiencing similar conditions.
Trolling is a common and effective offshore fishing technique used to target species such as mahi, tuna, wahoo, sailfish, and marlin. When a fish is hooked, it is standard practice on many shared charters to rotate opportunities among guests so everyone has a chance to participate.
While we're disappointed we weren't able to put fish in the boat that day, we appreciate you joining us and wish you better luck on your future fishing adventures.

Thank you for the detailed review—we really appreciate it. We take a lot of pride in offering affordable, budget-friendly fishing tours in Key West without cutting corners on effort or professionalism, so it means a lot that you noticed.
Our shared fishing charters are built around exactly what you described—working hard, staying attentive, and doing everything possible to keep lines in the water and fish coming over the rail. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to the crew, especially the mate—that kind of recognition goes a long way.
We’re glad you had a positive experience and appreciate the recommendation!
