CAPTAIN CHARLES TURNER - OWNER & GUIDE

Captain Charles

Captain Charles Turner started fishing at very young age with his father JR  aboard their 25ft Speed Craft center console out of Islamorada. They targeted species like snappers and groupers on the reefs, and mahi, tunas, and wahoos offshore. As the years passed, captain Charles and his father also developed a love for the Florida Bay and began fishing the back- country waters of Everglade National Park and Flamingo. " My dad and I would load up our 14ft fiberglass canoe on Friday nights with our trusty 12V 55 lbs. thrust trolling motor mounted to the transom. We brought 2 batteries, one to fish with and one to get us home! The limited range of one battery allowed us to fish nearby Bradley, Murray, and Joe Kemp Keys. This short range helped me learn the importance of fishing the tides in the backcountry."

At 18 years of age Charles earned his OUPV or "Six Pack" Captain's License. He immediately began working for Sea Tow where he learned the fundamentals of boat handling and most importantly, boating safety. While working full-time with Sea Tow he still found the time to be a fishing guide & captain private vessels for fishing charters. After several years of commercial towing and marine salvage knowledge along with many tonnage upgrades to his captains license captain Charles diverted back to his roots of fishing in the Florida Keys full time. Currently, captain Charles is living the dream as a fishing charter captain in Marathon Shores where he owns and operates his 34ft Seavee. " My goal is to provide superior service and unforgettable experiences on the water. I want to share my passion with others and create life long fishing memories for my clients while also educating others on the importance of ocean conservation."

CAPTAIN LESLIE RODRIGUEZ - JACK OF ALL TRADES

Hi, my name is Leslie. I grew up in Marathon, Florida, and have been on the water my entire life. I’m a third-generation fisherman and a first-generation Conch, and there’s truly nowhere else I’d rather be.

I’ve always been fascinated by the science and all the moving parts that go into fishing. No two days on the water are ever the same. We’re constantly learning, tweaking our techniques, testing theories, trying new gear, and exploring fresh fishing grounds. The ultimate goal is to be dialed in—not just catching one by accident, but consistently bringing up the species we’re targeting.

The charter fishing life isn’t easy. We work long, hard days—even when we’re not on the water. Boats break down, maintenance is always due, there’s cleaning to be done, social media to update, trip reports to write, licenses to renew... and I could keep going until I run out of room on the page! The point is, it’s not always rainbows and butterflies—but when you hook into a big one, it makes all the effort worth it.

Charles and I have been running Outbound Charters for over three years now, and we’re incredibly grateful for each and every one of our clients. Thanks to you, we get to keep living this amazing life we love so much. See you on the water!
