We have been fishing Key West, the Marquesas Keys and the Dry Tortugas for more than 25 years. Dry Tortugas fishing trips have become popular among avid fisherman and families who want a different type of Florida Vacation. Andy Griffiths Charters offers 2-day and 3-day charters from Key West to the Dry Tortugas National Park. We use the Dry Tortugas islands as our central location but fish a distance from the Ft. Jefferson area on patch coral reefs and wrecks. Fishing in the Dry Tortugas yields many species of fish including Mutton Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Grouper, Cobia, Amberjack, Kingfish, Sharks and Barracudas. On our way to Ft. Jefferson we may choose to troll baits for a while for Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Wahoo and Tuna.

Captain Andy Griffiths grew up in the Keys as the son of a commercial fisherman. During the 60's there were very few restrictions on fishing and very few fishermen. As the 70's came to a close, Captain Andy decided to finish college and re-evaluate his career options. Commercial fishing was hard work. Fluctuating seafood prices, bad weather, and difficulty finding good help for a crew made it difficult to pursue a future on the ocean.

All six boats come from the same manufacturer. They are 43 feet in length and 15 feet wide in the stern. This is where everyone wants to fish! There is a large galley with coffee maker, toaster, microwave oven, gas stove, electric frying pan, complete with pots, pans, and cooking utensils.

The best part about your 2-day or 3-day fishing trip to the Marquesas Keys or Dry Tortugas is that your charter boat is your hotel room. You have the best seat in the house for a beautiful sunset or sunrise and there is snorkeling and fishing right outside the cabin door. Although in the past it may be thought of as a hard core fishing trip, the fishing charters that are run by our captains are for the entire family. All of our boats have a variety of amenities including cold A/C, fresh water (hot and cold) shower, a large galley, comfortable bunks, rod racks and a shaded area for fishing.
