My hubby and I booked a 6 hour trip with Bamboo and loved every second of it! Our guide, Eric, was very knowledgeable and worked hard to make sure we had a great time. We got to fish for a variety of species all over the bay and enjoy the beauty of the Keys from the water. We even got... More 

What an amazing day we had with captain Matt. Our 7-year-old twin boys are hooked on fishing now. We booked the 2-hour trip which turned out much longer; Matt really took the time for us. The boys learned to use the rod and they caught so many fish, I couldn't believe it! Even a huge barracuda! It was so funny... More 

Booked a backcountry trip for my dad. We are experienced fisherman and I have to say we were not disappointed. We had a great time and caught fish at each spot. Cant go wrong with these guys

Enthusiastic and fun with my 11 yr old boy and the knowledge of the Islamorada back country - Everglades National Park was second to none. Book your trip with bamboo charters you won't be disappointed. Oh yeah and... More 

We had THE BEST time with Captain Matt. First, let me say how great and communicative Ana was for scheduling and planning. We are rookies when it comes to fishing, and ok snorkelers. I had lots of questions which Ana was so helpful with, and on the boat, Matt was a real expert. He really was hands on...Matt knows so... More 

The first saltwater fishing trip for my wife Evelyn - she caught a lot of fish (snapper and trout). Captain Matt was a great host and patient guide. We were on fish the entire time out! The boat is as smooth riding and quiet as a boat can be. It was just a great fun day with Bamboo Charters -... More 

We booked the backcountry trip but got rained out. Matt had a half day trip available two days later so we did that and fished Flamingo. Found a spot that was epic with LOTS of tarpon rolling and reds tailing, but couldn't get a bite. Neither could the other boats nearby. Went to a second spot and did well, but... More
