We had an amazing experience with Captain Conch Charters! Adam and Gary were both fantastic! Adam truly went above and beyond. He brought great energy the entire time and worked hard to make sure we had the best experience possible--even when the fish were being a little slow. He stayed patient, kept us encouraged, and really took care of all of us on board. You can tell he genuinely cares about his guests having a great time. We're so grateful for the effort he put in and would absolutely recommend booking with them! read more

Great time fishing with Capt Steve and Adam on the Reef Runner II. Caught plenty of fish, and enjoyed my time out on the water. Both Steve and Adam were professionals and fun at the same time. read more

Great trip on a split charter. Shared the rods all day in a fair rotation and everyone caught lots of fish. Trolling action was fun watching the kits and rods bending for the big catch! My daughter got an awesome Cero Mackerel! Highly recommend these guys! They have plenty of water (bring anything else) and we pre-bought the lunch which was a great sandwich too read more

Skipper Craig and deck hand Roscoe made it happen. Took us to smooth waters and caught lots of fish and 2 sharks. One of the best trips ever! read more

We had a wonderful time with Captain Conch Charters... i can't remember the name of our captain (we had an older gentleman with a mustache) and his deckhand was Roscoe. They did a tremendous job. They both worked nonstop to get our group fish. We ended up with 8 edible fish for our group of 6 (split charter). After reaching shore and speaking to others who had gone fishing with other charters we quickly realized we got more fish than anyone - a few people said they caught nothing! My girlfriend's 13 year old son was on his very first fishing trip and he had the best time. He can't wait to go again. Roscoe was very helpful with him and his mom (both first time fishing). If you have kids or are novice I recommend going with these guys. The boat was clean and comfortable... plenty of room. Very family friendly atmosphere on the boat. The crew was very professional and also helpful! Next time we are in Key West we will be going fishing with them again! A+++++ read more

Outstanding fishing charter. The crew of the Conchenstein Capt. Craig and 1st mate Ross were welcoming and helpful for first timers. The cleaning and fileting of the catch is a nice service. Great value for price paid. Bring Cash for a tip for the first mate they deserve it at least 20% if not more of the charter cost. Don't be. Cheap crew worked hard to find the catch and they pulled it off. A 4 hour trip is actually 6 hour, they don't count travel time as part of the time. Wow. Nice touch. We will be regular returning customers. read more

What a great day with Captain Craig and Garrett on the Conchenstein. We booked a private charter for six and fished for six hours today. We had so much fun and they took such good care of us. We caught lots of Mahi and some Mackerel. They filleted our fish at the dock and we are taking it home for a delicious dinner. Can't wait to come back and fish with them again! read more

Did a half day split charter with Captain Steve and Stan. Had a fantastic time, they knew where to go to get fish on the lines. They were very thorough with all the information about weather, safety, and the different type of fish we were catching. We caught a nice tuna, Stan was kind enough to clean it for us and Captain Steve was prepared with soy sauce and wasabi so we got to enjoy the freshest sashimi of our lives. We will be back and can't recommend Captain Conch charters, Reef Runner 2, Captain Steve or Stan enough. read more

We did a deep sea fishing trip and the party boat 'Stella'. First, everyone was peasant and knew what they are doing. My issue was with the party boat. They booked 12 people on it and it is WAY TOO SMALL for 12. The sign outfront had stated 10 but someone crossed it off with marker. 10 would have been crowded on the boat. Then they want to keep the tinyest of fish. Ok I don't have an issue if they want to keep them but they werent marking fish. Overall that was not an enjoyable trip and we will book elsewhere. We go on many fishing boats and read more

The Conchenstein was GREAT today!!!! The crew was courteous and professional. All on board were able to land multiple fish and we even got to see a sail fish jump and throw our hook! I would HIGHLY Recommend this boat and her crew. Thanks for the day. read more

My husband and I spent half a day with Captain Steve and Stan on Reef Runner II and had an excellent time. Steve gave a great presentation of how the day was going to go before we left and Stan gave a great presentation about the fishing and working the rods and reels as we trolled away from the marina. We enjoyed catching fish, losing fish, and almost as if it was planned to end our trip with a bang my husband reeled in a barracuda to end the day. We also enjoyed great conversation and great music. Highly recommend Capt Conch Charters...especially Captain Steve and mate Stan! read more

We went out on a 4 hour afternoon trip. The seas were rough but we managed to catch one good sized Mahi Mahi and two smaller ones that we couldn't keep. The rest were Bonito fish that were ultimately used for bait. Two people were able to fish at a time. The one keeper fish was split between five people on board. Captain Craig was great and First Mate Rosco worked his butt off. We had a good time, but wish we were able to take home more than one fish. read more

Capt Conch Charters - Fathers DY haul! - Fishing Near Me - Key West, Florida

Great Captain & 1st mate. Knew exactly where to go to catch fish. Very laid back. Great trip!

3/4 day trip out towards the gulf. We started bottom feeding and caught about 50-100 letter snappers, and groupers. After we had a little bait we switched to king fishing. The biggest one was right at 40lbs took about 20-30 minutes to reel it in. Captain told us in the morning we could go out deep or stay near the reefs. But hasn't been productive in those areas. We all chose to hit the gulf and it paid off well. Mate on board Johnny was very good and kept up with us all on getting bait on lines and switching tackle. read more

Great day on the water! Crew is fantastic - Capt Craig, Rosco and Mike. 100% Endorsement.

Captain Steve and our fishing guide Stan on the Reef Runner 2 were both awesome. We had an amazing, fun experience and caught so many fish, of which we took about 2 lbs with us that they filleted for us when we got back to shore. They were so helpful and gave us recommendations on which restaurants would cook the fish up for us. it was so much fun, I highly recommend them! read more

Wow what a day on the water with Capt. Conch charters. We booked a half day charter and were assigned the Capt. Conch boat. Capt. Gary and 1st mate Brian were awesome. After about an hour traveling out they put the lines in and started to fish. Bam one after another we hit a school of dolphin fish. We landed 10 keepers in a row in about 10 minutes time. We caught another 10 or more fish and only a few more keepers. They bagged up the filets after the charter for us. We only kept three full bags and let them keep the rest. Best fresh Mahi Mahi!!!! We had a great time! read more

Best fishing charter we've ever done! We went out on Reef Runner II for a 1/2 day split, and we caught more fish than we knew what to do with! The Captain obviously knew where the fish were biting, and mate Ricky keep the bait in the water - even when we had two fish on at a time. We pulled in nearly 2 dozen Spanish mackerel (the husband's favorite sushi fish) and 6 mutton snapper. I'm even going to brag a little about catching the biggest snapper (29"). It was a great experience! We'll definitely be booking again!! read more

We had the best time with the best crew, Captain Craig and Mike! You'll never find a crew that puts you on a sailfish your first time out!!! This trip was worth every cent! They are knowledgeable, friendly, and most importantly a ton of fun!!!! They are masters of their crafts! 10 out of 10 and can guarantee our next time to Key West we'll be back. read more

We're a military family with a graduating senior who's been to three high schools in four years and didn't even get a graduation. So we spent the day with Captain Gary and First Mate Cisco instead, and it was an amazing day! I guarantee we had more fun on this charter than I did walking across a stage, putting fish after fish after fish on ice in the cooler. We started out with a professional, but friendly walk-through of our procedures and safety requirements with the mate, and inside of an hour we were nailing blackfin tuna about 8 miles off-shore. Then we hit the mahi mahi (aka Dolphin Fish) and it was insanity, all three of us in chairs, bringing in these beautiful and delicious fish that are going to be our tacos for the next couple of weeks! For six hours we enjoyed the beautiful turquoise waters, the sun, the wind, and the smile on our son's face. They filleted all of our fish on return, packed 'em in bags, and we drove back to the house to start eating our tuna sushi with Aloha shoyu. Highly recommended for family fun or a day out with the guys/gals. read more

We went out today in a 4 hour fishing excursion. Overall the fishing was pretty fun - I only caught 2 small bonitas (which were thrown back), but my wife caught a 23 lb. dolphin fish. Another gentleman caught a second dolphin fish of roughly the same size. We agreed to evenly distribute the fish amongst the group since three of us hadn't caught anything of note. I was surprised that at the end of the trip, the fish was cleaned and we were only given a 2 lb. portion for the both of us (not 2 lbs. each, 2 lb. total). There were 5 of us in the charter, and it appeared that less than half the total fish was distributed amongst the guests that each paid $150 plus 20% tip. The rest went to the captain and deck hand (which was fine, they certainly worked hard for it) and 4 random guys that showed up at the end of the trip. I'd never seen these guys before, they did nothing for the trip, and all I can imagine is that they were friends that knew they could bum some lunch. It really rubbed me the wrong way. I loved the fishing experience, but I wouldn't charter them again. read more

Awesome time on the water, everyone caught fish, capt and crew very friendly on the Reef Runner 2

We chartered Stella Blue. Captained by Tosh and assistant 1st mate Bitty. Both ladies. Their fishing knowledge and seamanship skills are impressive. The boat is a bare bones converted Navy liberty launch. Price is comparatively reasonable. We bottom fished fairly close to shore. We caught a good assortment of fish. Enough for dinner. We had a family of 7. They are licensed to 10. Most boats max is 6. Had a great time. The crew was wonderful with the kids. Perfect family fishing outing. Definitely request Captain Tosh as she really made the trip a huge success for the kids. Take extra cash to tip the crew. read more

Great day on the water with T. She was a great Captain on Stella Blue. Definitely going back on our next visit to KW.

Great day and crew! Private charter - Asked us what we wanted to catch and they delivered. 2 nice sails and one huge king. Several mackerels too. And some delicious yellow tail snapper! Jowell and Edward were fantastic start to finish. Great vibe and professional to our fishing level experience. Easy to talk to and deal with the entire time. We'll use them when we come back to the Keys. read more

Was a ton of fun. 6 of us and Edward the mate was the highlight. Caught a 4 foot barracuda and grouper and bonita and tuna then he filleted them for us and we went to Dantes where they cooked em for 9 bucks with side dishes. Super friendly and everyone had turns and caught stuff. 5 stars. read more

I've been on a ton of charters and this was by far the worst charter I've ever experienced. The Captain was hands down the most unprofessional captain I've ever met. He drank 4 beers on the charter and oh by the way they were our beers and he didn't even ask. He smoked a cigarette the whole time without asking and I even asked him to smoke further away from me and he didn't. He cursed at other boaters and made the situation embarrassing. He lied to us multiple times. I could go on but I think this should be enough to tell you never to go on this boat again. His name was Captain "Cook". He also treated his shipmate like dirt. And oh we caught 2 fish that were less than a pound each in KEY WEST! And at the end of the trip he yelled at my buddy "you filet the fish" when he asked him if he could filet the 2 we caught. They didn't even have a fish finder on the boat. Very unorganized. Do not go here! read more

We booked a trip for my father and I to join a split charter on a Monday morning. Over the weekend when the forecast for Monday changed to heavy rain and thunder and lightening storms we called the owner Ritchie (more than 24 hours ahead of time) and asked if we could please move our reservation to Tuesday as we figured Monday's trip was likely to be canceled anyways due to the weather. He said okay sure and moved us with no issues. Then on Monday morning the day before we were set to begin our trip Ritchie called in a fit of rage and immediately began yelling that my elderly father and I had "wimped out" for not wanting to pay $500 to fish in a thunderstorm and as a result we were no longer welcome on his boat for Tuesday either. Then he hung up before I could even get a word out of my mouth. (It proceeded to pour that entire day). Please do yourself a favor and avoid Captain Conch at all costs. I ended up booking with Jolly Roger II (305-292-8595) instead and had the best day of fishing in my life. Tuna, wahoo, dolphin, everything. The captain Joe Mercurio has been fishing in Key West for over 30 years and is a complete pro. For the same price that Captain Conch charges for 6 people to be on their boat you will be one of just 4 on Jolly Roger II, meaning 50% more fish for the same price! Captain Conch is a scam. read more

My husband went 2 days in a row on the 4 hour charter and got totally skunked. I went the second day with him and never even touched a fishing pole let alone catch a fish. Wasn't really a fishing trip at all especially after they said most of the wahoo, tuna, etc... don't even come into the surrounding waters till December, so why book charters in October? Was a $600 dollar boat ride when all was said and done. read more

Came down to Key West for spring break and to do some deep sea fishing. Got set up with this crew, Edward and Corey, and they were the best!! They were very accommodating and made this trip very memorable. Would highly recommend them for your next fishing adventure!!! Their number is 305-304-5816 read more
