See what our customers are saying about The Main Attraction Charter Fishing Team!
Captain Jonathan was the most knowledgeable captain we have ever fished with! He was patient and awesome with our family. He worked incredibly hard to put us on the best spots. We had so much meat to bring home, our cooler was busting! We would use Main Attraction again, 100%. We all learned so many things and had a blast. The boat with the Sea Keeper mechanism was crucial for us that get sea sick. Made the day SO enjoyable and FUN!!!! Thank you!!!
My son-in-law and three of my grandsons charted a fishing trip last week. The fishing was fantastic. The experience with my grandson’s was unbelievable so grateful we got to do this. You guys are five star in my book.
What an incredible experience from start to finish! The entire process was seamless—from booking the trip to having our fish professionally packaged and shipped home afterward. The boat was exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and equipped with top-notch gear. Our captain and mate were outstanding—knowledgeable, hardworking, patient, and genuinely committed to making sure everyone had a great time. This was a special trip with my dad and my two boys, and the crew went above and beyond to make it memorable for all of us. They were fantastic with the kids, kept us on fish all day, and made the experience fun, stress-free, and exciting. We caught plenty of fish and created memories that will last a lifetime. If you're looking for a first-class fishing charter with a professional crew, excellent equipment, and outstanding customer service, look no further. We can't wait to come back!
We have been fishing with Main Attraction for the last 10+ years. There is a reason why we keep coming back! This year is was one of our best years fishing. We caught 15 different species of fish and brought home almost 100lbs of meat! Captain Marty and his experienced crews always get us on the fish! This year we chose to have Main Attraction vacu-seal and ship the fish back home. We didn't have to worry about anything and they shipped the fish to us after we got home! Thanks again!!
Marty and Alex were awesome over the last two days with our annual fishing group ! We caught a ton of fish and had a blast! Thank you guys!! Brice
Been fishing with Main Attraction for 10 years. Always punctual and a great time. Marty and Alex hooked us up this year! Fish were biting and they put us on them! Top notch in the Keys!
This was such a great experience for me and my family! We booked the swordfish charter and could not have been more pleased. Communication was outstanding from the start. We had Capt. Marty and James for our crew and we went out on "Main One". This boat was perfect for our group. It was clean, comfortable, and had plenty of room to move around on. The crew was very knowledgeable. They listened to our goals for this trip and made sure to do everything possible to make sure we achieved those goals. We really appreciated that kind of service and I belive it was the reason our first deep sea fishing experience was such a success. They even filleted our fish for us and set-up the shipping for the meat so we didn't have to. I can say with 100% confidence that the next time we visit Marathon, FL we will be fishing with Main Attraction
We always have the best time with Main Attraction Sportfishing!! This trip we did 3/4 day and started at the reef and limited out on yellowtail snapper within an hour or so. While at the reef we deep dropped. Then we went searching for mahi and finished with a little permit catch and release. It was so much fun and we can’t wait to book again!!
Captain Lucas and First Mate were awesome. We will be back. Highly recommend.
We traveled from Upstate NY to have my teenage daughter catch her first sailfish +. A family experience of a lifetime ! Thank you Captain Marty and Alex !
James and Harris were incredibly kind, patient, friendly and professional on our private half day charter. They made the experience such a memorable one for my son and husband and were patient with my daughter and I while we were sea sick. I highly recommend Main attraction if you are visiting the Keys! We took our fish back to Key Largo and enjoyed a delicious dinner!
What an experience!!! Captain Marty, and mate Mike were amazing! They not only put us on the fish, but found a way to make the day extra special for each person, kids and adults, they connected with everyone on the boat! What a team, true professionals an every level. The boat had everything you could imagine, and they had all the live bait we needed at the dock so we didn't have to stop and waste time! I can't wait, and we will definitely be coming back soon and joining the team again!!!!
Marty and Mike were great, got us on the fish and helped us make sure we got them in the boat!
Marty and his family are wonderful! Very accommodating to anglers of all experience levels. Took my wife and kids who had never gone out before, and Alex and his mate (sorry I forget his name) were awesome, giving tips and advice, patient and supportive. Did just a half day and caught dinner and then ran around looking for sails. Exactly what everyone wanted to do. Been fishing with them previously and caught all kinds, bottom and trolling. Can't recommend enough.
We had a huge catch of fish while in Marathon. We needed to have our fish shipped back home. We called “Main Attraction Sport Fishing” and spoke with Katie. She took our catch; divided them up into dinner portions; vacuumed sealed them and had them shipped to our home. They were packed and shipped in a very professional manner that was perfect. I highly recommend them for shipping your catch and also for fishing. Great people and service.
I met Katie from a referral at a hotel. She was very friendly, very responsive, very organized and had very fair pricing. All-around very positive experience! Highly recommended!
My son and I had a very enjoyable day fishing with the Main Attraction crew. We targeted Mahi first and later stopped over a wreck and hooked a few permit. The crew was real personable and kept us around fish all day. We highly recommend!
Choose Main Attraction great experience with them! I’d do it again with them!
My tenth charter with the main attraction was outstanding. Capt Marty put us on mahi like never before.
If you’re thinking about booking a fishing trip and NOT going with Captain James and “Scuba” Steve, you might want to rethink your life choices. From the second we stepped on the boat, it was clear these guys weren’t just here to float around and hand out sandwiches. We caught over 20 Mahi, 2 Blackfin tuna, and even wrangled a Blue Line tilefish—which, according to Scuba Steve, is a fish so fancy it practically comes with a tuxedo. These guys didn’t just fish—they made us part of the crew. I got to help set lines and get hooks in the water faster than you can say “Fish on!” My 8-year-old son was living his best pirate life, hosing down the deck like he owned the boat and “driving” us back to port like he was auditioning for Deadliest Catch: Junior Edition. My 10-year-old daughter, who usually thinks fishing is “too slimy,” even had a blast—and she smiled the whole time (a rare sight, trust me). But here’s the kicker: we’re sitting by the pool that evening, swapping fish tales with some other folks who went out with different charters, and it was like comparing a high-speed rollercoaster to a paddle boat ride. One guy actually stopped mid-sentence and said, “Wait...you got HOW MANY fish?!” This trip was unforgettable, hilarious, and hands-down the best family fishing experience we’ve ever had. Captain James and Scuba Steve are the real deal—fun, professional, and just the right amount of salty. Book the trip. Catch the fish. Let your kid swab the deck like a pirate. Thank me later.
