Live Action Sportfishing 2 invites you to team up with Captain Ryan Carter and Captain Jaggar to explore some of the best fishing found on the Florida Keys!

As a sport fisherman, Capt. Ryan has received honors such as “Most Releases,” “Most Tarpon Releases”, and “Guide Achievement” in the Key West Fishing Tournament. He’s got the skill and know-how to get you on the fish and keep you there.

You’ll be fishing from his 24’ Pathfinder bay boat, accommodating up to 4 anglers at a time. Outfitted with all the necessary safety gear and a full array of navigation electronics, she’s got everything you need for a productive day on the water.

Although Tarpon, Permit, and Cobia are his specialty, Captain Ryan has mastered all of the species that inhabit the inshore and backcountry waters of Key West.

Live Action Sportfishing 2 encourages anglers of all skill levels and the captain’s true passion lies in sharing his love for fishing with both children and adults.

Capt. Ryan will provide you with all the necessary rods, reels, and terminal tackle for the trip, and will also clean and fillet your catch afterward.

Captain Jagger helped my wife and I catch 130 pound tarpon within an hour of pushing off the dock. We also caught yellow jack grouper snapper and more. Will be back.

My family and I booked a half-day trip with live action and we could not be happier with how the day turned out. We fished in a variety of different locations around the world, and Key West is like no other. Capt. Ryan had us hooked up to Tarpon, snapper, and Jacks throughout the day. We even managed to catch a shark. Capt. Ryan has phenomenal customer service and is great with kids. I highly recommend booking a fishing charter with him if you’re ever visiting Key West Florida.

Capt. Ryan killed it! He over delivered in more ways than one. Communication was on point, fishing was hot, and he was easy along with.

I took my six-year-old son on a half day trip with Capt. Ryan. My son has not stopped talking about our day of fishing since. We caught a jack and got hooked up to a 70 pound tarpon which we ended up landing (fish was bigger than my son lol). Thank you for the memories. You guys rock.

Capt. Ryan is great with kids and is very knowledgable about the Key West fishery. He taught our two children about the different species of fish and help them get hooked up quick. When we got back to the dock, Ryan filleted our catch and ended up having a meal with us after our charter. I highly recommend booking with Live Action if you are looking for a top notch fishing charter in Florida.

Definitely would recommend booking a fishing charter in Key West with Live Action! We caught snapper, barracuda, sharks, and more. The highlight of our trip was seeing a manatee on our way back to the dock. If you’re looking for something fun to do in the Florida Keys this is a great option!

Had a great day with Capt. Jagger chasing down Tarpon and other fish. We booked with other Captains in the past and this trip was by far at the top! Capt. Ryan is down to earth and dialled in on the fishing. We will definitely be booking again.

Great time with the family and caught lots of fish. No bathroom on board so keep that in mind if you have young kids.
