Local Tips & Conditions
Marathon's central location in the Florida Keys provides access to multiple fishing environments in a single trip. The area features productive patch reefs, extensive flats systems, and deep-water channels that attract a variety of fish species throughout the year. Weather conditions in the Keys are generally favorable for fishing year-round, though seasonal patterns do affect which species are most active.
Morning trips often provide the calmest water conditions, especially during summer months when afternoon thunderstorms are common. Winter brings cooler temperatures and occasional cold fronts, but also some of the most comfortable fishing days with lower humidity. Captain Joel monitors weather and tide conditions closely to maximize your fishing success regardless of when you book. The Gulf Stream's proximity to Marathon creates unique fishing opportunities not found in many other Florida locations.
Plan Your Fishing Charter Day
When booking with Ana Banana Fishing Company, plan to arrive at the marina 15 minutes before your scheduled departure time. Wear comfortable clothing, non-skid shoes, and bring sun protection including hats, sunglasses, and reef-safe sunscreen. We recommend bringing your own food and drinks (no glass containers), though some charters can arrange these for an additional fee.
Our vessel is equipped with safety gear, fishing equipment, coolers for your catch, and basic amenities. For your comfort, we suggest bringing a light jacket even on warm days, as conditions on the water can change. Our marina location provides convenient parking, and we're happy to recommend nearby accommodations if you're visiting from out of town. Captain Joel will discuss catch-and-release practices and any size/bag limits for various species during your trip.
