We first met Luke a number of years ago on our first fishing trip to the Keys. It was pure serendipity that we picked him. We try to return every other year and will only fish with him. He is knowledgeable, hardworking, accommodating, and will surely give you the most value for your fishing trip. I hadn't fished since I... More

Captain Luke is a honest, hard working guide. He has a great knowledge of the local area and will get you shots at fish, even in poor conditions. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. He is easy to fish with and an all around good guy. When I return to the Keys, I will fish with Captain... More

My fishing buddy and I have fished the Lower Keys Flats with Captain Luke Kelly for the last two years and have Luke booked for another trip in 2012. Needless to say, we highly recommend Captain Luke as a guide for anyone wanting to fish this beautiful area. Captain Luke Kelly perfectly fits my idea of a great guide --... More

My Dad and I have been fishing with Captain Luke Kelly for about 4 years now, making about 2-3 trips a year, and have not been disappointed. Fishing down in the Florida Keys can be very difficult because the fish can see just about everything but Luke seems to be able to sneak up on them, not to mention having... More

I have fished with Luke twice now and it was great! The first trip was bonefishing and he had us on the fish quickly! The second trip was Permit and Tarpon and it was a blast. We caught plenty of both. Luke is a great guy and has a true passion with what he does. He knows the back country... More

My older son and I have gone out with Luke the last two trips to Key West. In 2010 he took us bone fishing and later took us out to a deep water channel where we had all we could handle. Last year we went out again with Luke and had a great time. Cought a couple of shark and... More

I just returned from my 3rd fishing trip with back country guide Luke Kelly, of Key Flat Charters, out of Sugerloaf Key, close to Key West. Luke is the real deal - he will put you onto a variety of fish in the most beautiful back country in the Keys. His knowledge and appreciation of the wilderness just offshore, and... More

I have fished with Capt. Luke Kelly and Key Flat Charters for nearly 5 years now and it is hard to see myself fishing with any other guide in the entire Florida Keys. If you asked why I would probably sum it up in two main reasons: 1) He is a Florida Keys native that grew up fishing the area... More
