We had great weather, a great time and great experience!!! Our next trip we will definitely book with Captain Ed and 1st Mate Ian.
Amanda, Thank you for chose is and we're glad you all enjoyed the day. Look forward to having you fish with us again.
My kids favorite part of our vacation! This was such a great family fishing trip for us! We went with our 3 kids aged 10,8, and 5. Captain Ed and Ian did a great job teaching us how to fish. They were extremely attentive to the kids and helped them catch over 20 fish a piece! When we got back to the dock they prepped the fish for us and recommended fed a restaurant to bring it to after and we had enough fish to eat for 3 days!! We will be booking with Ed again next year! I highly recommend!!
Thank you for choosing Wet Tails Charters. We're glad you all.enjoyed the day and look forward to fishing with you all again. Ed
Captain Ed and Ian were phenomenal. Ian hustled by keeping our bait on the hook and helped our kids reel the fish in. Captain Ed kept us safe as the storms approached. We caught so many interesting fish and had a delicious dinner with the snapper caught: highly recommend.
Joni, Thank you for choosing Wet Tails Charters. Glad you all enjoyed the trip. We hope to see you all again 🎣
Fabulous experience! My husband, our two kids - 10+ 12, and I did a 4 hour charter with Wet Tails and it was FABULOUS! Ed and Ian were super helpful, patient with us, and made everything extraordinarily fun! We saw a bull shark - and caught plenty of fish!
Thank you for choosing us to help create some lasting memories for you all. Look forward to having you join is again 🎣
I’ve done many inshore fishing trips. This one topped them all. We caught probably 100 fish in the 6 hours. Captain Ed and first mate Ian were fantastic!
Chris, Thanks for choosing us. We had a great time with you all. Look forward to fishing with you again.
We caught over 40 fish in less than 3 hours. We kept 15 of the biggest ones and had fish for the remainder of the week. The crew was great and took care of everything we needed. Ian works his tail off and ensures you are fishing the entire time you are on the boat. He deserves every penny you give him. My wife and I have been on other fishing charters but this one is the best! We will go out with these guys from now on.
Thank you for choosing Wet Tails Charters. We're glad you all.enjoyed the day and look forward to fishing with you all again. Ed
Great fishing in challenging winds! Capt Ed was able to find the fish despite changing winds/currents.

We had so much fun! Ken and Ian were very kind, super helpful, and fun to spend the day with. There were six of us on the trip, none of us knew how to fish, and we caught SO MANY FISH! They knew exactly where to go. We even saw bull sharks trying. To feast on our catch! Ken then recommended a restaurant to take the fish so we could enjoy an amazing meal. It was a wonderful experience! Bring a good tip for Ian - he works hard to make sure everyone is taken care of. They’re a great duo.
Thank you for the review. Look forward to seeing you all again. Regards, Capt. Ed Traylor
Captain Ed, First Mate Mickey and Wet Tails Fishing Charter in Marathon Key, Florida were nothing less than Amazing!!!

We had a wonderful afternoon on board the ship with Ed and Michael! They were very helpful and kind. They provided all the gear and bait as well as helpful tips. We fished in two different locations and along the way we saw dolphins, two sea turtles and a manatee! Our fished were cleaned for us and Ed recommended a place to eat that would cook what we caught.a It was great and we would totally do it again in a heartbeat!
Thank you for your kind words and we hope to have you join is again. Regards, Capt. Ed
