   The Wich Family Fishing Trip   Black Grouper         XL Yellowtail          Nice dolphin caught on Dec. 3, 2009
August 25, 2010 -  Fishing Report
Blackfin tuna action on the humps is great right now. If you get some live bait and chum the tuna, it gets about exciting as you can stand it. Dolphin fishing is great if you like to go on long boat rides! The catching part leaves much to be desired, but if you get lucky there are still a few nice gaffers and schoolies out here. At the Hump amberjack are biting and lately the sharks haven't been a problem either for the jacks or tuna. On the reef the yellowtail bite is as good as it gets and there are a few grouper and mutton snapper biting from the reef out to about 180 feet. Kingfish are still here too. Mangroves snapper are biting on the shallow reefs. Tarpon and shark fishing is good in the evening in the near shore waters.

In business for over 34 years, same boat and same captain since 1976. We offer reasonable rates  and a top notch crew. This is not a business owned by some independently wealthy, retired or relocated person, the captain is not a hired hand, this is a professional captain with a lifetime of experience fishing the Keys who owns and operates his own boat. We want to take you fishing, this is all we do, all year, every year. The RESTLESS TOO is a 1964 Hatteras powered with twin John Deere diesels (we use biofuel, it has no diesel fumes), top quality tackle and a vast array of modern electronics. You will catch fish! And have fun doing it with our friendly professional crew. Our rates are much less than the typical charter in the Florida Keys but our catching isn't. No one wants to catch fish more than we do! Come get in on the fun! If you need more than one boat for your group we can arrange that too with other owner operated vessels. If you prefer a larger boat (i.e. more expensive) I will be happy to recommend other good captains.

Robert Mathias has fished the Keys for over 36 years aboard the Restless Too which he has owned and operated since 1976.  Check out our  Split Charter Page!  You can try to hook-up with another party to split the cost of a charter. See our Blue Marlin caught on 20 spinning tackle here!  We welcome anglers of all skill levels.
