Captain Tony Murphy has been fishing for a living in the waters off Key West for more than 15 years, including 5 years of commercial fishing with rods and reels targeting Snapper, Groupers and Kingfish. Commercial fishing experience is essential for a true fishing guide. There are many light tackle guides to choose from and you'll find that most successful guides have backgrounds in commercial fishing. Tony is also a very patient captain and loves to teach beginner anglers. From the seasoned fisherman to families with children, all levels of experience are welcome.
