Experience Counts: Fish Marathon with a Native Captain
A Keys native with three decades’ experience as a Marathon, Florida, fishing charter captain, Capt. Jeff Rella’s knowledge of the middle Florida Keys is unparalleled. Just as important, he has built a reputation as a nice guy to spend a day on the water with — easygoing, patient, adaptable to all experience levels, and great with kids.
Superfish Charters can accommodate up to six anglers aboard our custom-built 34’ SeaVee center console for Marathon fishing charters ranging from four to eight hours. We fish everywhere from the nearshore patch reefs to the famous Marathon Hump 30 miles offshore in the Atlantic to remote structure spots 50 miles into the Gulf of Mexico.
We target a huge variety of species on our Florida Keys fishing charters, ranging from reef dwellers like snapper and grouper, to pelagics like tuna, dolphin, and billfish, to migrators like cobia and kingfish. We also offer exciting shark fishing trips in protected waters and specialize in deep-drop fishing with electric reels for prized fish like snowy grouper, queen snapper and golden tilefish.

Doing What I Love
Running a successful charter fishing business in the Keys isn’t as glamorous as it might look, and captains come and go — a lot. I was born and raised here, started commercial fishing and spearfishing before I could drive a car, then got my captain’s license and started guiding at 18.
Now, 30 years later, I enjoy it just as much I did back then, and maybe more. There’s nothing better than seeing the excitement on people’s faces, especially kids, when they hook a big fish. Marathon and the Middle Keys have some of the best year-round saltwater fishing in the world, and I’m grateful to be able to make a living here doing what I love.
Whether you’re a lifelong angler or just a beginner, my goal every day when we leave the dock is to take you on the fishing adventure of a lifetime!
—Capt. Jeff
