We love fishing with kids! Our charters are kid friendly. If you browse through our photos you will see lots of happy kids with their fish. Nothing makes Capt. Mitch happier than sharing his love of fishing and helping to shape the new generation of anglers! So bring your children!
Fishing in the Backcountry and the flats in the waters of Key Largo, Florida is one of the best experiences you will ever have with light tackle fishing. Captain Mitch Mitchell has been fishing the flats and backcountry waters of Key Largo for his whole life. Not only is Capt. Mitch a Licensed and Insured Master Captain, he is also a licensed Everglades National Park Fishing Guide. We fish the waters of the Upper Florida Keys, including Tavernier and Islamorada, and up the West Coast of Florida all the way to East Cape. The waters here in the Key Largo Backcountry are filled with some of the best sport fish in the world. Tarpon, bonefish, permit, snook, redfish, and even sharks are just a few of the many fish that make the Key Largo backcountry a destination that every angler should experience.
Captain Mitch is dedicated to bringing you the most fast paced and exciting backcountry fishing in the Upper Keys. Our Key Largo Fishing Charters regularly take you through the Florida Bay, Everglades National Park, Flamingo, and Biscayne Bay. Don’t forget your camera!
The waters and areas where he will take you fishing are filled with many different types of wildlife. It’s not unusual to see bald eagles, brown and white pelicans, osprey, and spoonbills. In addition to the fish that you will catch you might even get lucky enough to see or even have some dolphins swim by the boat and maybe even a see a saltwater crocodile or manatee. Again, don’t forget your camera!
If you want a Florida fishing guide that can make your backcountry fishing charter one to remember than Capt. Mitch is the one to call.

Tommy from the UK showed us a new sport - Shark Riding. I offered him a fishing pole to catch this one, he just smiled. Next thing I knew he was riding this guy back to the boat. Those British blokes sure are tough! (Don't try this at home guys, Tommy is a trained professional)
I just wanted to share a wonderful email that I received from Chris and Jenna who fished with me last week. They are from the UK and were here on their honeymoon. I had just a great time with them.
Hi Capt. Mitch!
Chris and I both wanted to say thanks again for the amazing day yesterday! We had the time of our lives, between catching three sharks, trout fishing and the ride itself through the everglades...it is something we will never forget! I can't believe our luck to avoid the bad weather completely and to see a rainbow and flamingos! We are so excited to see your photos and videos! We will remember that day for the rest of our lives. Thank you for creating such a special memory for us... without your humor, knowledge and experience we truly would have missed out!
With love,
Jenna and Chris
I am honored that you chose to spend such a special time in your lives with me. It was wonderful having the two of you aboard and I hope you guys can come back soon. ~ Capt. Mitch
Captain Mitch isn't generally a supersticious man, but he does ask that you leave your bananas at home. Over the years he has learned that a banana aboard the boat means that they fish just aren't going to bite. So bananas are contraband!
