David's crew hooks solid yellowfin using mixed techniques!

Action-packed day from the get-go! David and their crew joined us for a winter morning trip that started in the early hours with clear conditions throughout the day. The calm weather made for perfect conditions as we headed out for our Inshore Fishing Charter in Marathon, FL – A Perfect Catch Awaits with Johnny Maddox Charters Papa 31.

Once the stage was set, we worked a combination of drift fishing, bottom fishing, and trolling techniques to target the inshore waters around Marathon. The crew managed to hook up with some solid yellowfin, and these waters down by the glades really delivered for us. Marathon's inshore fishing grounds are perfect for this kind of mixed approach - the structure holds fish and the current keeps things moving. We had tight lines most of the morning and wrapped up with great catches and smiles all around!

This Trip is One Click Away

If y'all are looking to get out on the water in Marathon, our 4 to 8 Hour Reefs, Wrecks, and Inshore Fishing Charter offers exactly what you need for a productive day of inshore fishing. Marathon's location puts us right in gator country where the fishing opportunities are endless. We run drift fishing, bottom fishing, and trolling techniques depending on conditions and what's biting. The backcountry waters around Marathon hold yellowfin and other species year-round, making it one of the most consistent fishing destinations in the area. Whether you're cruisin' the flats or working deeper structure, our local knowledge of these waters gives you the best shot at success. Johnny Maddox Charters Papa 31 has been putting anglers on fish in these waters for years, and we know exactly where to find them when the bite is hot.
