Fish the Dry Tortugas with Capt Steven Lamp on board the
"Intense" 32
Ft Yellowfin Yachts Center Console. One and two day
trips to the Dry Tortugas for 4 or less.
The Dry Tortugas are located roughly 70 miles west of
Key West. A civil war fort was built on the rocks of the
Dry Tortugas called Ft Jefferson. Around the islands
that make up the Dry Tortugas is some of the best coral
reef and wreck fishing in the Northern Hemisphere.
Bottom fishing, Live bait fishing and trolling are all
great ways to fish the Dry Tortugas.
 Fishing the Dry Tortugas is an awesome adventure. The
reef structures off the the Dry Tortugas in all
directions are incredible. Black Grouper up to 60 lbs.
Yellowtail snappers that are mostly flags. Permit on the
numerous wrecks and Huge Kingfish almost year round with
hoards of Blackfin Tunas on the shrimp boats
Capt. Steven is very lucky to have attained one of 11
permits handed out nationally to actually fish inside
the national park boundaries offering his clients the
opportunity to see what Dry Tortugas fishing is all
about legally. Outside the Fort boundaries Capt. Steven
also has a Gulf Federal Charter Boat Permit to fish with
his clients our there as well.
 The day is 10 hrs long from dock to dock.
We will fish for whatever is best inside or outside the
Dry Tortugas. Mostly bottom fishing and wreck fishing.
Live bait and artificial. Hitting selected wrecks and
reefs where the fishing has been best with wind
conditions in consideration. I supply all the gear you
will need with Both conventional and Larger spinning
rods with Braided line up to 50 lbs. Casting plug rods
and trolling plug rods as well as light spinners for
yellowtail a d other lighter fishing and casting for
permit. Trolling rods for large trolling plugs too. If
you would like to bring some of your own gear please let
me know what it is and how it is rigged.
Snorkeling is also available as part of the trip to get
in and cool off. I supply all the gear you will need to
enjoy this as well.
We can gear the trip any way you like. All fishing or
fishing and sight seeing mixed with snorkeling. We can
also tour the actual Civil war fort of Fort Jefferson.
(Requires a 5.00 donation per person).
Catch and release policies are strictly enforced for non
food fish. Recreational bag limits will also be strictly
adhered to. Come on this trip to catch a bunch of fish,
take some home and enjoy the Dry Tortugas.
 The Fuel Charge is added on your trip far when we
return. I have the latest in fuel monitoring systems on
my boat that measure my burn to the 100th of the gallon.
We reset this before we leave. I run my boat at the most
optimum cruising ranges for best fuel burn and speed.
Generally one can expect to burn around 110 gallons of
fuel.
Bring With You a camera (I will also have my
professional camera and Digital video recorder on every
trip) your favorite sunscreen some towels and I would
also recommend long sleeve shirts and firm footing wear
(flip flops are not so good). Polarized glasses are a
plus and sunglasses are required on my boat to be worn
at all times while fishing as eye protection. Walking
shoes if you plan on visiting the grounds. Food and
beverages that will keep you for two days (just in
case).
I will bring plenty of bottled waters and Ice. I do have
a toilet on my boat that is somewhat private for the
ladies.

4:30, at this time we run into the Fort Jefferson
Boundaries..

Food will be served on the boat in the evenings and
first thing in the morning. Customers should take care
of their own lunch needs.

The King fishing is going off the hook. Sailfishing on

Groupers, Goliath Groupers, Mangrove Snappers. The Tuna
start to come in March the wreck fishing is stellar.
Plug fishing for bottom fish hits peak season.
Permit on the wrecks, bottom fishing is incredible,
weather tends to be a bit windy. Trips are action packed
with plenty of fishing. Mutton Snappers are spawning.
Plug fishing is still real good.
July - October
