At A & B Marina in Key West, Florida, Captain John J. Smouse, skipper of the Shadow Caster, takes both novice and veteran fishermen out every day and brings them back happy campers from a day of flats fishing in the waters around Key West, Florida. Captain John has been helping them land those prize fish since 1997 and he can put you on the Tarpon, Bonefish and Permit with the best of them.
Charters on the Shadow Caster are either full day or half day and anglers can opt for fly fishing or light tackle spinner fishing. Either way the fishing gear, as well as the boat, skipper and licenses are all part of the charter package. Any fish you catch are yours to keep and anglers should note that lunch is not on the house, so plan accordingly and bring plenty of food and beverage.
Captain John’s weapon of choice, the Shadow Caster is a 17-foot Maverick Master Angler, a skiff specifically designed for flats fishing with a light, flat hull and poling platform at the stern on which the skipper can stand to pole the Shadow Caster to within feet of the unwitting Tarpon or Bonefish, giving you an excellent opportunity to cast your fly right into his face and wait while he decides to strike it. The Shadow Caster also provides a stable platform for casting and for landing the fish.
So, if you are looking for a fishing holiday on the Florida Keys flats and want to hook up with the finest skipper available as well as the finest trophy Tarpon or Bonefish available, then give Captain John J. Smouse and his Shadow Caster at A & B Marina a shout and stand by for some exciting fishing.
