Great boat, captain, & first mate. We limited out on three types of fish. We’ll no doubt be repeat customers.

Outstanding crew!!!! Captain and mate were extremely professional and knowledgeable. Targeted mahi and they produced fish!! Caught fresh bait, rigged up all new tackle and they worked for us. Two man limit of mahi in the boat by 10am. Back to the dock and they cleaned the fish and set up packaging, freezing and shipping services. Highly recommend.

We had a great time with this crew! Will book with them again for sure!

This is the best charter that we ever took over the past years The captain did not waste any time getting us out and start catching fish We caught dolphins, blackfin, tuna, and several other varieties

Good time on a full day trip. First mate Angel worked hard the entire trip.

Captain and Angel were absolutely phenomenal with my family. We brought our two daughters and they had an absolute blast deep drop fishing with electric reels. They put us on fish consistently and we caught a great mix of tilefish, a snowy grouper, vermillion snapper, and even a giant blackbelly rosefish. The boat is well maintained and has shade to sit in, a head (must have for a family with young kids), and plenty of space to relax or fish. We had such an amazing time we booked a repeat trip for later in the week. If you’re looking for a fun fishing trip, this is the boat for you.

This was a great fishing adventure; I’d recommend the full day charter it’s what we did and I think presents the best opportunity if you want to catch different types of fish, and we had a blast, caught lots of fish and had a great day and the crew was fantastic working really hard to ensure we had the best opportunity to catch Mahi Mahi, tuna and some other fish that presented an opportunity to us. They had music on board, and everyone had a good time and they really worked hard as a team to ensure we were reeling them in.

Unforgettable Swordfish Fishing Adventure with Kit & Angel We recently had the pleasure of embarking on a swordfish fishing trip that can only be described as extraordinary. From start to finish, the experience was meticulously planned and executed, leaving us with memories that will last a lifetime. The booking process was seamless and straightforward. Kit & Angel were incredibly knowledgeable, providing detailed information about what to expect, what to bring, and the best times for fishing. They even offered tips on motion sickness prevention. The crew was exceptional—professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about fishing. They went out of their way to make sure everyone was comfortable and engaged, regardless of their fishing experience. Their expertise was evident as they navigated the waters and provided insightful guidance throughout the trip. The highlight, of course, was the fishing itself. The thrill of the hunt, the excitement of the chase, and the ultimate triumph of landing a swordfish were beyond exhilarating. Kit & Angel’s expertise shone through as they guided us through the process, offering tips and tricks that made a significant difference. The moment we reeled in our first swordfish is something we will never forget—its sheer size and power were awe-inspiring. This fishing trip was an absolute dream come true. From the expert crew and top-notch equipment to the thrill of the catch and the stunning ocean views, every aspect of the trip exceeded our expectations . Whether you’re an experienced angler or a novice looking for an adventure, we wholeheartedly recommend this trip. It’s an experience you’ll treasure forever.

We had a fantastic trip on dirty boat with Captain Kit and Angel. We had a tight timeline on a 3/4 day trip and they got us out of the marina nice and early with plenty of bait. They accommodated our desire to target wahoo tuna and mahi. As a group we got about a dozen blackfin tunas and a mahi. It was a great day, need to go back for that wahoo! Kit cut up our fish and set us up with a great person to freeze and mail the fish back to us at home. As well as hook us up with a sushi chef on the island that whipped up quite a spread for dinner. Definitely recommend these guys for anyone looking for a great Day fishing on islamorada.

We had the best day out on the water with Captain Kit and Angel! This was our second time chartering with Dirty Boat, so we already knew it would be a great trip. This was the first time we’d ever used electric reels, which was pretty cool. They took us about 12 miles offshore, so we were able to catch a variety of fish—tile fish, vermillion snapper, almaco jack, snowy grouper. We even saw a couple of sharks! We really felt like the crew shared our excitement, and it felt like we were old friends by the end of the charter. With Angel’s suggestion, we took our catch to Lazy Days and had an epic lunch. He even hooked us up with someone to pack up our catch and have it shipped back to VA for us. We’ll definitely go with Dirty Boat the next time we’re in the Keys! Also, follow Dirty Boat on Instagram and watch my son eat a fish eye…🤢

Great guys! Great trip! Swordfish and Mahi Mahi. Definitely would go again

We had an amazing time! Kit, Angel, and Mike where great and made the day even better. They where experienced and made sure we put fish in the boat. We got our Sword!!! Dirty Boat will be our pick every time for this area.

Captian Kit & Angel were outstanding. Kept us on the bite and made the effort that is hard to find in a lot of charters today. Worth the $

We’ll have enough mahi for weeks! I had little background knowledge going into the experience, and they assisted me along the way. Awesome experience!

Robin and I had another great day with Kit on the very nice and comfortable “Dirty Boat”. Thanks!

It’s always a great day on the DirtyBoat! We had so much fun catching all the best fish. We are ready to come back in the fall. Thanks, Captain Kit, for accommodating all our requests and going above and beyond to get it all done.

Great experience! Wonderful day fishing for Mahi with Angel and Capt. Looking forward to our next trip down to Islamorada.

Had a great time on the dirty boat! Crew was awesome! Dished exactly how i wanted! Would recommend to anyone! Photo below of a amberjack that got eaten by a shark as it was brought to the surface!

Spent the day on a split charter with Capt. Kit and 1st mate Angel. We had an amazing time and caught about 26 mahi mahi and a couple of tuna too! We caught a bunch where other boats were congregating, but the fishing became slow, so we headed out deeper. We didn’t see any boats out there, but we caught a bunch of fish. Thankfully, Captain Kit was willing to ensure we caught fish and made that happen even though he burned a ton of additional fuel getting us there and back. Highly recommend this charter, it did not disappoint! we got back to the dock and Capt. Kit and Angel filleted our catch. Due to the type of tuna we caught, Angel grabbed some soy sauce, and we enjoyed sushi right on the dock! These guys are top notch, and I would love to go again!!

Had such a great time with Dirty Boat Charters!!! Booked two trips with them for a guys trip to the keys and would highly recommend. First trip was for Swordfish with Captain Kit, Angle and Mike. All three were so much fun and extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Was our first deep water trip and Dirty Boat made sure it was a great one! Hooked up on one Swordfish that ended up being foul hooked and but got a chance to see the fish before the hook pulled. On the way out and back in the crew put us on Mahi Mahi and we ended up boating 15 or so and keeping 12. My buddy caught two over 15 pounds. Was an incredible experience and we will be back for that swordfish. Sunday we went out for sharks and tarpon and caught a lemon shark and got to see a bit of the keys from the boat. Again Captain Kit made sure we had a great time! Thank you guys!!! Really appreciate you making the trip memorable!

FN awesome 25 mahi that we kept. Lost quite a few,and a couple black fin

Fantastic time! Friendly, professional, and fun! They kept it “reel” and we brought home dinner! Great job to the Captain & 1st Mate! Captain Kitt and First Mate Angel great time!!

Capt Kit and Mike run a very tight clean operation. Run charters myself back home and appreciate professionally run business and these guys are that. You can tell they know their stuff and put in the effort in a comfortable easy going atmosphere

Great day on the water with Captain Kit and Angel. Got a limit of yellow tail and a few bonus mahi mahi. Thanks for the fun
