There's no doubt that Captain Tony can put you on the fish. We had a terrific experience and will most certainly charter with him once more.

We had a great time fishing in the Poor Girls Sailfish Tournament on Liquid Gold. The boat is swift, roomy, and lovely. We are eager to return and fish with them the next year. Regards, Capt. Samantha and Tony

Every year, I visit the Keys.This past week, I had the chance to reserve a four-hour Mahi charter with Captain Tony Gold. I have never had a better charter fishing experience than this one.

Had the best fishing experience EVER with Liquid Gold Fishing Charters! Capt. Tony is an excellent captain and the ride was incredibly smooth and stable!
He put us right on the fish immediately, and the “catching” began! We limited out on yellowtail very quickly…and brought in some huge mutton snappers with Tony (and Samantha’s) expert help. I highly recommend! Our expectations were exceeded! Thank you for a perfect day, we can’t wait to do it again.

Captain Tony was able to fit us in for a last minute afternoon/ evening trip for shark and tarpon. He has a slip at the marina by the Postcard Inn - literally a few steps from the parking lot. His boat is spotless and has plenty of space for VERY fun fishing! He has a cooler with ice for any drinks you bring. We were fishing near shore- so no wasted time traveling far out and we were able to get our lines in right away. Thanks for the great trip and all the teaching! We are from Nebraska and it was our first time ocean fishing. Captain Tony was very animated and our sons (17 & 15) had a blast.

My Father in Law and myself went out on Sunday the 28th. Captain Tony left the radio and a lot of other Captains were having a rough time. Not us, Captain Tony put us on 3 big schools of Mahi. We caught 35, but only 9 were keepers. The bite was on!
We also caught our first Tile Fish!!
