Advanced Fish Finding
Simrad Electronics Suite
We utilize the latest CHIRP sonar and high-definition Open Array Radar to find the birds and the bait. Our technology allows us to “see” the bottom in incredible detail and track pelagic hunters long before they hit our spread.
Tailored Expeditions
Custom Tackle & Techniques
Whether you prefer the finesse of light-tackle reef fishing or the heavy-duty thrill of a daytime swordfish charter, we customize every rig. We use tournament-grade rods, reels, and terminal tackle to ensure that when the “fish of a lifetime” strikes, you land it.
The 900HP Advantage
Speed, Range & Efficiency
Our Triple Yamaha 300HP outboards provide the speed necessary to reach the offshore humps while the rest of the Islamorada fishing charter fleet is still in transit. Speed isn’t just about the thrill—it’s about maximizing your time with lines in the water.
Elite Safety & Comfort
The “Fish Around” Design
Safety is our baseline. Our vessel is equipped with premium USCG safety gear, satellite communication, and a stable 39-foot platform. Plus, our unique cabin layout provides a dry, shaded place to recharge between battles, a rare luxury in a high-performance center console.
Precision Rigged. Triple Powered. Zero-Roll Stability.
At Pelagic Raptors, we believe a world-class Islamorada fishing charter should be as comfortable as it is productive. Our 39′ Fish Around Contender is one of the few vessels in the fleet equipped with a Seakeeper gyroscopic stabilizer, virtually eliminating boat roll and seasickness. Pair that with our high-output JL Audio system, and you have the ultimate platform for a day on the water.
