Quick drying clothing and a towel or dry change of clothes, very possible to get a little wet!

Follow the captain’s recommendations. Richard Bradley know what’s biting and where they’re located.

Book your trip early and watch the weather. August is a tricky time of year.

Looking for mahi and tuna may take some time to track down, so if you also want to go after bottom fish like snapper/grouper, you may be pinched for time so maybe only try that for 3/4 or full day charters. Lots of sunscreen and water needed - it can get really hot - especially if the wind dies off.

His boat is clean and he provides water. We also brought Gatorade and snacks.

Wear sunscreen even if you think you don’t need it! Wear a hat, sunglasses, a long sleeve fishing shirt, and appropriate shoes (not flipflops). Be patient and enjoy the view. Engage with your captain, and have fun!

This is a great trip for experienced/beginners and cost-effectiveness. The caltiqn lives local was really good to make us feel welcome and suggested a cool restaurant to cooking or catch.

Remember your sunblock (not spray), take a hat and sunglasses, wear long sleeve ‘fishing’ shirts, make sure you’re drinking water!

All except way too hot!! Our best experience was the catch and recommendation for straight to the table for dinner that night!

Be aware the water temperature dictates the species and activity of bite. The higher the temp., the lower the activity.

Fish were spawning, which could be a positive or negative factor worth noting.

Lots of shoreline, shallow, and deeper water opportunities... fishing doesn't have to be expensive, but if looking for a charter ask locals, read reviews and the right packages can be found!

Fishing was okay, perhaps they were also on vacation. It was still a good time and would do it again.

Great time of year to fish. If you have never been to South Florida WEAR SUNSCRERN!

Expect the weather to change plans for what you’re fishing for. Be flexible if you can’t go after your target species and be ready to catch something different!

Hire a well rated charter n follow Captains instructions. They will work hard to put you on fish. Grill it at your rental or have restaurant cook your catch

Communicate with your guide about what you're looking for and remember that the fish are the ones who decide where to be and what to eat. Have fun. Roll with the seasons and schools. Stay hydrated and wear a hat and long sleeve fishing shirt. The sun is the most dangerous thing on a fishing trip.

The captain provided everything needed for fishing, just bring sunscreen and/or a fishing shirt.

Great fish variety on the reef. A good guide can find the nice sized fish. The big ones can hung up in the reef structure. As usual, the winds can make or break your day. I love fishing in Marathon!

Captain John Callion is the best professional guide I’ve ever booked. Prompt, courteous,,extremely knowledgeable about fish and habitat, as well as technique, boat was clean, tackle was on point and the entire trip was excellent bow to stern. If you want to catch fish, and enjoy the trip, this is your guide. Professional, helpful, informative and personable. If i could give him 10 stars, he earned and deserves every one.
