Turtlegrass Charters

Welcome Aboard!

I’m Captain Dave Saddler of Turtlegrass Charters. Come along with me as we explore South Florida’s vast fishing potential.

We can sight fish Biscayne National Park’s great flats and edges for some of the biggest bonefish in the world, as well as the finest permit this side of Key West. There are plenty of big tarpon during the spring migration, plus an awesome nighttime fishery on fly around lighted docks and bridges.

In Key Largo, we’ll fish the ocean side for tarpon, permit, and bonefish in the morning, and move into the Everglades National Park backcountry in the afternoon.

Or, try fishing for snook and tarpon at night in Metro South Florida, or along the beach between Jupiter and Stuart for record-sized Jack Crevalle, tarpon, and snook.

Whether you fly fish, throw artificials, or chuck crabs and shrimp, we can customize a fishing charter that’ll get your pulse racing.
