I went fishing for the first time ever with Captain Drew, and had the time of my life! I caught more fish than I could’ve ever imagined and he exceeding all my expectations! He was very motivational and kept me in high spirits throughout the whole experience. I highly recommend Captain Drew to anyone looking for a great charter in the Florida Keys.
I’ve gone out twice with Fishy Business Islamorada, and both times, we landed the fish we intended to catch. We did the bait fishing, then headed out for trout, mangrove snapper, and tarpon. Drew has great patience and is a good instructor for those wanting to learn and improve their fishing. The boat setup was great for small groups.
Captain Drew made my Keys weekend the trip a lifetime. It seemed as though every time we cast a line, we had a bite within 30 seconds and a fish in the boat within a minute. This can be attributed to Captain Drew’s unparalleled knowledge of the best fishing spots Islamorada has to offer.
