    Three Generations. One Family. These Waters Are Home.

    Cowboy Cowgirl SportFishing Charters began in Key West in 1965 and has grown into a three-generation family fishing operation. What started with founder Hans Baumgarten and the original Cowboy continues today with the Baumgarten family taking anglers onto the same Key West waters they have fished for decades.

    Our captains are U.S. Coast Guard licensed locals, and our fleet gives us the right boat for families, first-timers, and serious anglers alike.
