Your Best Day in the Keys Starts Here.

At Silent Hunter Fishing Charters, Captain BJ Meyer brings a lifetime of experience, local knowledge, and versatility to every trip. From offshore and deep-drop fishing to reef/wreck, tarpon and seasonal sportfishing, he knows how to make the most of every day. Each charter is tailored to the anglers on board, whether that means chasing a bucket-list fish, filling the box, introducing a kid to their first catch, or simply putting together an incredible day on the water.

BJ’s reputation has been built on more than catching fish. It’s the effort, the experience, and the level of service he brings to every charter that turns first-time customers into clients who return year after year. When you fish with Silent Hunter, you’re not simply booking a fishing trip — you’re booking the kind of day you’ll want to do all over again.

FAQ

Questions About Our Charters

Everything you need to know about our charters in Key Colony Beach

What’s the best time of year to fish in the Florida Keys?

There’s something worth chasing year-round. Different seasons bring different opportunities, so if you have a certain fish on your bucket list, let us know. If you’re flexible, we’ll point you toward what’s best during your stay.

Can we keep the fish we catch?

When the species, season, and regulations allow it, absolutely. Captain BJ will make sure everything kept is within current regulations and can help you understand what’s coming home for dinner and what gets released.

What if we don’t know what kind of fishing we want to do?

No problem—that’s what Captain BJ is here for. Tell us what kind of experience you’re looking for and we’ll take it from there. Based on the season, weather, conditions, and what’s biting, BJ can recommend the best option for your crew and build the day around.

Is a longer charter really worth it?

It can make a big difference. More time means more water to cover, more options to explore, and more flexibility to follow the bite. Fishing can change throughout the day, and a longer charter gives Captain BJ the time to adjust, make another move, or go the extra distance when there’s an opportunity worth chasing. however, a shorter day can still be incredible.

What should we bring?

Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, comfortable clothing, food and drinks for your crew, and anything else you’d like for the day. PLEASE bring shoes to fish in. We’ll take care of the fishing side.

If you’re looking for the ultimate offshore fishing experience in the Fl Keys, a trip with Captain BJ Meyer is the way to go. From the moment we stepped aboard, everything was perfect. The boat was great, and equipped with top-of-the-line gear.. The crew was outstanding—professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. Captain BJ knew exactly where to take us, and it paid off big time. We caught a ton of massive fish and were reeling them in all day long! The action never stopped, and the energy on board was contagious. Whether you’re an experienced angler or just getting started, this is the kind of fishing trip you dream about. Highly recommend Captain BJ Meyer, can’t wait to book again!
