Meet Captain Steve Carnahan and Hooked Up Outback Guide Service

Captain Steve Carnahan, originally from West Palm Beach and Wellington, Florida, brings decades of fishing experience to every trip he leads. After diving into the waters of the Florida Keys and the Bahamas in 1999, he built an impressive background in offshore fishing. Over the years, Captain Steve’s deep connection to the water led him to specialize in inshore and backcountry fishing, where he found his true passion for providing guests with personalized, successful experiences.


As one of the leading Islamorada fishing guides, Captain Steve is committed to sharing his knowledge with anglers of all skill levels. Whether you are targeting Snapper, Grouper, Snook, Redfish, Sharks, or the iconic Tarpon, his expertise in reading the water and adjusting techniques ensures a productive and memorable day. Known for his patience and dedication, Captain Steve focuses on helping each guest feel confident and engaged throughout the trip.


Captain Steve’s approach centers on creating a fishing experience that is both rewarding and enjoyable. His deep understanding of local patterns, fish behavior, and seasonal movements gives guests a valuable advantage on the water. Every trip is carefully tailored to match your fishing goals, and Captain Steve’s enthusiasm for the sport ensures that every cast counts.


Your day on the water will take place aboard Captain Steve’s 17' Hewes flats boat, a vessel perfectly suited for navigating the shallow waters of Islamorada. Designed for up to two anglers, the boat offers a comfortable and personalized setting for your fishing adventure.
