    Why Choose Us

    Key West Fishing Charters You Can Trust

    Key West sits at the southern tip of Florida, where the Gulf of Mexico meets the Atlantic Ocean. This unique location creates some of the best fishing in the United States. Warm currents bring big fish close to shore year-round. From mahi-mahi and sailfish in the deep blue water to snapper and grouper on local reefs, the variety is hard to match anywhere else.

    Cowboy Cowgirl Sportfishing has called Key West home since 1965. We are a family-owned business with three generations of fishing knowledge. Our captains grew up on these waters. They know where the fish are, what they bite on, and how to get you on them fast. That kind of local experience makes a real difference on the water.

    We run six boats from two Key West marinas. Whether you want a half-day trip or a full-day adventure, we have options that fit your schedule and budget. Unlike simple boat rentals in Key West, our fleet includes tournament-tested sportfishing vessels with top-of-the-line gear. Every Key West boat in our fleet comes with a professional captain, equipment, bait, tackle, and fishing licenses included.

    Beginners are always welcome. Our crew will teach you everything from casting to reeling in your first catch. Experienced anglers will appreciate our focus on finding quality fish and putting you in the best position to land them. We offer private charters for groups who want the boat to themselves and shared trips starting at just $200 per person for those looking for an affordable way to fish Key West. For those seeking an adrenaline rush, our Key West shark fishing charters are among the most exciting trips we run.

    Safety is our top priority. All captains are U.S. Coast Guard licensed with years of experience. Our boats are well-maintained and equipped with modern navigation and safety gear. We check weather conditions before and during every trip to make sure you have a safe, enjoyable day on the water. For a detailed breakdown of what different trips cost, see our guide to Key West fishing charter prices.
