Wow! What a great trip! Patrick is a great guide! The boat was very very clean and he was extremely knowledgeable and had us on fish in minutes of anchoring. My son landed a huge barracuda and my daughter a nice shark!! We couldnt have been happier! Our whole family recommends highly!

This is pretty much has been the first time we’ve all deep water fish. Experience with Patrick couldn’t have been any better he was well knowledge very patient with us. We booked a four hour trip with him. We got off with a rough start because of the weather nothing to do with Patrick at all he was very accommodating to the situation. He took us out and was determined for us to catch a fish we spent seven hours out there not catching anything to brag about. But the man that I have got to know why I was out there on the boat was not going to let us go home without having something to brag about. We were planning on going on the private island tour so when we went back out for that he took us out fishing before we went. He won’t make sure we had something to talk about, guess what ? That day we got to caught eight foot lemon shark.Yes Patrick make sure we went home to something to brag about. As the rest of our week went own. We was talking to some of the locals what Patrick has done for us they all said how special that was that he didn’t have to do that he didn’t promise us a fish not even especially not one to brag about but he made it possible for us to do that this will be a trip that my son will never forget about and that’s all it means to me that he put that little happiness a special thoughts and very unforgettable memories this child will never forget. For that thank you. blessed you and your family. I hope your daughter some day have someone do for you what you have done for my son. Thank you.

Patrick was extremely helpful from the start of the entire process. Promptly answering any question prior to our arrival and when we arrived.Had a great day on the boat!! The boat was comfortable and large enough for our party. With all the necessary things for a good trip.He immediately put us on fish and we continued to catch them the enitre time we were out. I would recommend him to anyone who would like to go have a good time and vatch lots of fish!Billie

This was the most amazing trip ever! Patrick is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and got us right into the fish. My dream of catching a shark came true when my husband reeled in a 10 foot nurse shark! Best experience, highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time fishing with Captain Patrick! We are somewhat novices and we caught a lot of fish and had a lot of fun doing it. The boat was very clean and big. We will definitely be contacting him again for next year. Highly recommend this charter !

Thank you, Captain Patrick!My Key West experience was what dreams are made of. Captain Patrick is so kind and is very knowledgeable about the Keys. I went on a 6 hour solo trip and got to see dolphins swimming right in front of me, a Pelican eating fresh fish, blue crabs walking around my feet at the shore. All while anchored at a private sandbar at the edge of the Keys. I found my Kokomo!

What a great experience!!!Patrick was awesome!!The weather was a bit windy so he called the night before to make sure we still wanted to go out. We did have to change our plans a little but we were not disappointed. We were able to catch 4 sharks!!!I highly recommend booking a fishing day with Patrick, he is very friendly and lets you do the fishing.

Had a great day fishing with Patrick. Boat was clean and comfortable for our party of four. Patrick had a great attitude, encouraging us, coaching us, helping us catch some fish, and even giving us some great tips on how to cook them. We had a group with all skill levels, and Patrick made it a great day for all! Will definitely book with Patrick on our next trip to Key West.

Patrick gave us a great experience! He was very knowledgeable of the area and the sport of fishing as well as personable. We were very thrilled to complete our bucket list dream of catching sharks!

Captain Pat didn’t disappoint. We hit a single, double, triple, and a home run. We reeled in a 200 pound shark that was the biggest and toughest fish that any of us had ever encountered. We also caught a big barracuda and several other impressive fish.

Great experience! Patrick had to manage our trip due to high winds and made our fishing trip something memorable. Even extended our time because the sharks 🦈 appeared and were active. What a fight!This was a well run excursion and I highly recommend Patrick!

Review №17

Great day on the water fishing on-board the Bits and Pieces II with Captain Pat, we kept enough fish for dinner. Also, 2 bonus fish, 150 pound Goliath grouper and a 500 pound shark, both released to fight another day!An awesome day was had by all! I would highly recommend Captain Pat to anyone looking for an angling adventure!

Review №18

Although the currents and the wind didn’t cooperate at the start, Captain Patrick put us on the fish and we had a great time. From Goliath Grouper to Barracuda we caught plenty during our trip and even had enough red grouper for lunch and dinner to boot. Patrick’s interaction with both of us was appreciated and next time we are in Key West we will certainly call him back. Super Grunt!!

Review №19

I had two trips booked with Patrick and they did not disappoint. We caught our limit of yellowtail both days, 3 or 4 large Amberjacks, Barracuda, to top the trips off a 9’ lemon shark (what a battle). Patrick was awesome to have as a captain. I will definitely book him again. It was a pleasure being on the water with Patrick catching some new species and learning new techniques. Thanks for two wonderful days on the water.Terry Hawkins

We were so happy with every part of our trip! We were looking for a more personal deep sea fishing experience than a ship with a bunch of other people, but also couldnt afford some of the other charter experiences. From the first call with questions before even leaving home for our trip, to finishing the last bite of our catch, we enjoyed our 6.5 hour trip, our fish, and the memories & TRUE fresh tales! While we were staying in Marathon & planned this as our only day in Key West, it was WELL worth waking up an extra hour early to get there! Captain Patrick was so very patient with me as an inexperienced angler, and my husband as an inexperienced deep sea angler. (MO Rivers have nothing on ocean fishing!) He patiently baited my hook every time, encouraged us while fighting with a barracuda & a nurse shark, and when we thought we were finished in one area, encouraged us to throw out one more time! We caught several Yellow tail snapper from the reef, and 2 good sized Mahi-mahi in deeper water, which was MORE than enough for 2 of us for 2 nights, with leftovers! His recommendation for where to take our catch was perfect, and we would recommend booking your time with Patrick ASAP! We are looking forward to looking for him again when our kids are ready to make these memories, too!

Review №23

Patrick is the best!!! When Mother Nature decided to rain all over our original charter date Patrick instantly offered to take us out 2 days later when the weather would be more cooperative. Patrick made our entire process seamless from the booking process all the way through the charter itself. If you’re not booking a charter with Patrick while you’re in Key West then your missing out on the best experience ever!!! Friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, professional and courteous = Patrick. Thank you for an amazing trip and we’ll see you again soon.

Had an amazing experience with Captain Pat, conditions weren’t ideal after tropical storm Elsa but he made the trip well worth it!! Originally wanted to go fishing for Mahi in the months leading up to the trip but pat told us the waters were really choppy and not worth going out deep due to the current and wind conditions.Gave us the option to still go out there if we wanted but thought it was better fishing going to the backcountry and fishing for shark. His honest recommendation gave us the best experience we have had here in key west. He was absolutely right with his recommendation, caught a lot of snapper, grouper, gar, pinfish, blue runner, and lemon shark.Pat is very knowledgeable, personable, funny and cares about your experience. I would highly recommend him, and will be coming back to him every time we visit the keys.Mike and Jen Kovalski

Patrick was an excellent captain. His communication throughout the charter booking process is seamless. This is by far one of the best charter I’ve been in. Super professional and very personable.I’d recommend him if you or your group would like an experienced captain that knows all the fishing spots!

I cannot say enough about our trip with Captain Patrick. From his comedic personality to his professionalism it was an overall great experience. We wanted to get to go out and have the attention on our group of 4 and a private charter is the way to go, you don’t get the attention on the party boats and it’s worth t. Extra money. After an enjoyable ride out to the crystal clear waters he put us right in the fish. We were fishing for yellow tail snapper and my guess is we caught well over 40, that’s with me having to sit out a few hours due to wooziness. We also brought in a few big jacks and 2 nurse sharks which put up a nice little fight and were fun to see up close. The action was non stop and Captain Patrick did a great job keeping us in the water and getting fish off the lines. We also got to watch some jack eat our yellow tail as we were reeling them in, which was turned into a game of who can reel in your fish fastest. We were not going to be able to bring fish back to our home so we caught the perfect amount of keepers for us 4 to have 2 nights of fish tacos and some fish dip while still in the keys. Thanks for the awesome trip Patrick and for the mango salsa recommendation for the tacos.A few recommendations for future guests.1. Breakfast tacos at the taco truck right around corner from marina. Opens at 6 and has baskets if 3 street tacos. Ask for the Spivey sauce.2. Hit the bathroom before going out.3. I have never been sea sick on boats but got that way so take Captain Pats recommendation on taking something, even if you have never been sea sick.4. Have fun. It was the highlight of all 4 of us that went out. Husbands and wives alike loved the trip.

Captain Patrick was the absolute best and really made our day on the water special. The boat was great and super clean which really made us comfortable right away. We got to see a school of dolphins while we were cruising but our favorite part was the gorgeous sandbar Pat took us too. It was magical! This trip really checked all the boxes we were looking for and we had so much fun we will definitley be back to do it again sometime. Thank you Capn!

2 friends and I went on a 6 hour fishing trip with Captain Patrick. We started off catching enough Yellow Snapper for lunch and dinner for the group. We later hooked on to a giant grouper. However, before we could get it on the boat it was eaten by a shark. It was an amazing thing to experience in person.Once back on shore, Captain Patrick cleaned our fish and offered up suggestions on which local restaurants would cook our catch.It was a great trip and I recommend Cheap Fishing Key West!!

Wow- what a day fishing out in the Atlantic with Patrick. We caught a pretty big sized nurse shark to start the day and that was awesome! Patrick was a great teacher and eager to help. I learned a lot about fishing and had even more fun hanging out with Patrick. I couldn’t recommend highly enough. I will be back and recommend to all my friends to go out and fish, snorkel or tour the seas with Patrick. Well done! Just ended my night bringing the fish I caught to a local restaurant to cook and enjoyed with the whole family.

This was the best fishing charter I’ve taken. I brought my son and his friend (18 years old) and we caught fish the whole time. Patrick is a great captain. Our goal was to catch fish we could take home and eat, plus angle for some larger fish. Mission accomplished ! You can tell Patrick takes pride in his boat, its clean and well run.Thanks again for a great time !!Jason, Max, and David

My wife and I had a great trip! Patrick put us right into a large school of fish and we caught loads of snapper. I also caught a 4-ft barracuda, which was a treat. My wife is a novice fisherman, but he helped her quickly learn the ropes...she caught more fish than me! Highly recommend Captain Patrick. He’s fair, friendly, and enjoys watching folks have a good time. Thanks!

My family went out with Patrick while we were in Key West. It was an amazing time! We caught plenty of yellow snappers- enough for 2 meals for 4 people at Half Shell Raw Bar and even left some behind. The boat and poles were clean, everything was provided and he even filleted it all for us afterwards. We would highly recommend!

We could not have had a better day. The weather was terrific and Captain Pat was the best. He was patient with all of us. Even the novice fishermen. We caught plenty of fish to feed us dinner and even threw many back to grow for one of his future trips. Thanks for the wonderful day.The Pantesco’s and the future Zachrich’s.

Just had a great day fishing with Pat! It was too windy out to have an enjoyable time deep sea fishing as originally planned, but pat was honest (much appreciated) and offered an excellent alternative. We caught tons of snappers along with a hammerhead shark and goliath grouper! He was so nice, patient, and takes great care of his boat! It was so clean!! He recommended a nearby restaurant for us to go to after fishing to have our fresh fish cooked, and it was soo good. Thanks pat, we can’t wait to come back!

We had such an amazing time fishing with Patrick! It was a great opportunity for our son who had never fished before. We even got a chance to have our catch cooked for us! Big thank you to Patrick for recommending a restaurant which allowed us to do this. We are very proud to say that we managed to catch a whopping 15 Snappers! We even had the chance to catch not one but two Barracuda’s! We hope to one day return to Key West and fish with Patrick once again.

If you are looking to do some fishing while visiting Key West Patrick is the guy to see. He is very knowledgeable, experienced, honest, easy going and a fun person to be around. I can’t say I am an experienced fisherman but that did not matter, Patrick has you covered. His rates are more than reasonable. He did a really nice job preparing our catch and recommended a great restaurant that cooked our catch for us and it was excellent. Great experience all around.

Pat was kind enough to take us out on the water on NYE! We had an absolute blast and were in awe of how clean the boat and equipment was.. we have never seen a cleaner fishing boat.

I really enjoyed the fishing trip. The crew is very knowledgeable and they know so much about fishing. I have taken other fishing trips but this one tops them all. Key West is beautiful and it made fishing so much fun and easy. I chose this fishing charter cause the price was the best from all the other fishing places. But I would really recommend it, it was affordable and so much fun!

Praying for everyone in Florida right now and hoping Irma weakens fast!”

Best experience ever! They really are the most affordable fishing charter in Key West! But just because the prices are low doesnt mean they cut corners in the trip. The captain is extremely knowledgeable and when booking I asked if we would catch fish, he replied with We always catch fish! and sure enough we did. If you want to go on a fishing trip, Cheap Fishing Key West is the way to go!

Captain Pat is a great captain. My husband decided to take the whole family fishing on a our trip to Key West. Well I thought I wasnt going to have much fun because I didnt know how to fish but I was wrong. Captain Pat took his time helping me and my youngest son fish and guess what, we both caught something. We had such an awesome time, I highly suggest hiring Captain Pat to take you and your family out fishing.

My teenage son and I fished with Captain Pat on a beautiful June morning in 2014. His 27 foot Shamrock was very clean, comfortable and nicely rigged for riding and shade. Since the reef fishing had been slow the previous couple of weeks, he suggested we troll for Mahi early. We caught 8-10 Mahi Mahi before I asked to go to the reef and try for Yellowtail snapper and other reef species. The snappers were small, but we had fun and put several nice porgy in the box. The captain patiently cleaned our fish and accommodated us in every way possible. I would fish with this gentleman any day....
