Very nice but a lot of weird quirks. You need your room key to go anywhere. Even on the elevator. You can't get anywhere from where you are you have to go somewhere else first. If you bring a boat here stay in building 3.
We were in Key West for the week and the weather outlook was terrible. (When we were looking they were calling for rain every day) We decided to roll the dice and find a charter once we were here if the weather was going to cooperate. The first day we tried to find a guide was a bust. I tried the next day, texted Captain Kyle and had a reply within minutes at 9:00 on a Saturday night. He had the following morning open for a backcountry/flats trip. We texted back and forth a couple times and decided to go. I called and talked to him to confirm and lock in the trip. He was very cordial on the phone and was VERY interested in what we were looking to do on the trip. We met up with him at the marina about 7:30 and we were off. We spent half a day with him and went after several different types of fish, the bite was on early and we had our first fish in the boat within 3-4 casts. I think it took a couple hours before we caught the same type of fish twice ( this was perfect for my 10 year old angler). Kyle was super patient, extremely knowledgeable, and very personable. The highlight of the trip was my sons 4-1/2-5' black tip shark that took him almost 20 minutes to reel in. When we come back to Key West, I'll be booking with Captain Kyle without a doubt. And hey, thanks for the great tip about The Hogfish Restaurant for lunch Kyle, it was delicious!
Went out with my 7 year old son and wife this morning. Cpt Kelso was amazing. All my son wanted to do was catch sharks and sharks is what we caught. He had a blast after we caught a few sharks he wanted to just catch some small fish so he could cast and reel them in. Cpt Kelso was very accommodating and would highly recommend him. Thanks again and we will see you next time we come down.
Capt Kyle is the best fishing guide i have ever gotten to work with. Extremely knowledgeable, professional, and fun to hang out with. Puts you on the fish reliably and quickly. Our group caught snapper, tarpon, sharks, barracuda, and more. Would strongly recommend to anyone looking to fish in Key West.
We booked an afternoon trip for my family. None of us are huge fishermen, but that wasn't a problem. My 7 yr old twins caught a ton of jacks and snapper. A perfect day!
The high light of our trip. Spending time on the water with Capt. Kyle is always memorable. My wife and I have fished all over the keys and Kyle is on top.
Happy Guide = Happy Guests. When a person loves their job it shows.
Not only is he a professional guide he's got some serious talent with a camera. We have some great shots from our trips thanks to Kyle. All Water Charters is active with social media and it's pretty cool seeing a picture or a video that you're in. It sure helps get thru a Minnesota winter. Thanks for the Great times. See you on the next trip for sure.

Booked a trip with Kyle Kelso to go permit fishing earlier this week. Had a great time. Kyle is knowledgeable, professional, and willing to go the extra mile to ensure you have a good time. This is our second trip out with Kyle and definitely will not be our last. If you want one of the best out of Key West - try to book Kyle. (Jamie / Judy - Dallas, TX)
