The weather was not the best. Cold front came in with some rain but that didn’t stop us or Captain Mark from putting us on fish immediately. He was a joy to have as a Captain and was very patient and informative with my 10yr old. We had so much fun catching a huge variety of species. Would highly recommend.

Unforgettable Charter with a Truly Exceptional Guide

I had the absolute pleasure of fishing with Captain Mark yesterday, and I can confidently say he’s one of the best guides I’ve ever been on the water with. His passion for what he does is evident from the moment you step on the boat. He’s not just knowledgeable—he’s patient, adaptable, and genuinely loves sharing the experience with others.

Whether you’re bringing kids who are brand new to fishing or you’re chasing tarpon on fly gear, he makes everyone feel comfortable, supported, and excited. It’s rare to find a guide who can seamlessly cater to every skill level without skipping a beat.

If you’re looking for a guide who truly cares and wants you to have an incredible time on the water—this is your guy. Highly recommend and can’t wait to fish with him again!

We had a wonderful 4 hour trip with Mark in late February and were very fortunate with the weather as it blew the day before and rained and blew the day after.  Our weather was sunny with doable wind and pleasant temps. We caught 7 species of fish and a load of Yellowtail Snapper that were just barely not legal which was not helping our attempt to catch dinner. Mark could not have tried harder to make that happen, as we fished 4 different spots and tried various lures, bait, etc. We had about 20 minutes left at the last spot and I caught a really nice Mutton Snapper that was to become our dinner so mission accomplished.

My wife could not have been happier with the guidance and instruction Mark provided and thought he was very helpful and interesting to talk to. The 4 hours flew by and she caught more fish than I did but I saved face by catching the big one!  We would definitely book with Mark again and highly recommend Midnight Fly Charters.

Thank you, Captain Mark! Had a great time on the four hour AM charter.  We caught a ton of fish.  Mutton, mackerel, blue runners, yellowtail.  The bait we used was either shrimp or Ballyhoo!. The shrimp is what was really making the fish bite. Highly recommend.  I will definitely use Mark again and you should too.

Fishing with Captain Mark was a great time. It was my daughter’s first time ever fishing and he was super patient and attentive to showing her how to cast and what not. He is super knowledgeable and friendly! We will definitely be booking another trip with him next time we are in the Keys.
