We have been fishing with Captain Al for six years now. We have never had a disappointing trip. In fact all of our fishing experiences have created great family memories for myself and my children alike. He has an immense knowledge of fishing and the waters around Key West. He tirelessly runs around the boat to make sure everyone's fishing experiences is maximized. When you're fishing with Capn Al you're fishing with the best and he will take care of you. We just chartered Capn Al this August 2020 for a full day and we caught so many fish I literally got tired of it. Thats how good he is and how easy he makes it.
Ps Besides the fishing, he was in the Coast Guard for a good number of years, so besides the expert fishing, hes one of the most experienced seamenon the water and you can't put a price tag on that extra level of safety for your family.

Captain Al knows how to find fish. Caught multiple sails, wahoo and a few barracuda. I travel around and do multiple charters throughout the world every year and can say that Captain Al is one of the best captains I have ever fished with.
If you want to have an enjoyable trip and catch multiple species of fish look no further, Captain Al is your guy.

From the moment we boarded the boat, our six person group felt welcomed and comfortable on Captain Ware’s pristine boat. Our adventure provided more fish than we had hoped for and a lifetime of great memories. Plus a few big fish stories!! Captain Ware is a true professional, taking us to the exact spot to find the fish. It was a great day for everyone in our group. Thank you!!

Great day fishing with Captain Al! He went out of his way to make sure we were catching fish all day and gave us great pointers to have a successful day. We ended up catching so many fish I lost count. My kids had a great day and look forward to returning again soon.

Fished with Al 3 days this week, I had hoped on a day of sword fishing, a day chasing Mahi, and a day of reef fishing, didn't work out that way, mother nature put a link in the plan . Did get in the sword fishing which was a goose egg but is expected in that fishery ! Too much weather for the next 2 days to Mahi fish so we got our butts beat off reef fishing. We had descent success boating grouper and snapper but the sharks and cudas took more than their fair share ! All in all a solid 5 for effort, knowledge , and integrity .

Holy Crappola ! Where do I begin ??? Took my son in law for his first offshore experience, Al took care of him , conversed and got to know him, it was great to witness! We had two back to back days split up with different types of fishing, hard to get enough thank yous in , the trip was great. I initially did this trip as a bucket list trip planning to move on to something new next year......wrong, I will be back wit Wares the Fish next year !

We are experienced fishermen and Captain Al provided an excellent day on the water. We started by catching a number of snapper on the reef then moved out to the large wreck and caught several barracuda that put up a fight. While there we saw two hammerhead sharks up close, one of which was at least 12 feet long. Captain Al moved to drift across a smaller wreck and where we caught some amberjack then had a monster grouper on the line with which we battled long and hard but it finally shredded the leader and got away. A GREAT half day on the water!

Captain Ware's Fishing Charter is a great family fun thing to do while in Key West. He went out of his way to make sure we had a safe weather day to be out on the water and really educated us on the best fishing places, types of fish, local history, ect.He really knows what he's doing. We had never been ocean fishing before. He made the trip great especially for first time ocean fishing. Captain Al was very professional and helped my daughter and niece catch some nice fish. My daughter had been granted a fishing trip by Make A Wish Foundation and she got her wish! She caught a huge yellow fin snapper! Our chef at Ocean's Edge cooked it for her. Captain Ware was kind enough to filet her fish when we got back to dock. My niece caught a barracuda. This was a super exciting trip.I highly suggest anyone wanting to take their family out fishing to call Captain Ware.
