Capt. Mark is mostly out of email and text range during the day and only checks these when he is back in range, in the evenings.

Bottom Fishing
Kelley Girl Charters specialize in bottom fishing on local reefs. Species caught on these reefs consist of, but are not limited to, varieties of snapper, grouper, trigger and amberjack. Some species may only be caught during select seasons.
Shark Fishing
Shark fishing is one of the most popular trips at Kelley Girl Charters. These trips range in length from 5 to 8 hours. The longer the trip the greater the opportunity to catch the “big one.”

We offer 4 to 6-hour inshore trolling trips or an 8-hour off-shore trolling trip.
Species caught on these trips consist of, but are not limited to, spanish mackerel, king mackerel, bonita, mahi-mahi, wahoo, and cobia.
