We brought Mom and Dad to the beach for a little time away.  We booked Captain Justin for an afternoon of fishing.  Not sure what to expect, Captain Justin took us out.  He loaded us up with a rod and reel, went over some simple instructions, baited our hooks and we dropped our lines in.  Immediately we had fish on our hooks.  Captain Justin kept our hooks baited and knew where to find the fish.  Excited to catch a keeper triggerfish and a filefish among a lot of grunts.  We highly recommend Captain Justin.

I will start by saying that Captain Justin Driscoll was upfront and honest about the challenge we may face due to the weather the day we were supposed to go.  He left it up to us and we chose to go for it.  We had a great 4 hour trip fishing in the pier due to Hurricane Laura causing large swells in the gulf.  My 17year old son and I had a blast.  We caught 8 different species of fish and roughly total of at least 30 fish.  It was not the best weather day so was pleasantly surprised.  Captain Driscoll was very personable and informative while we fished.  We will booking with him again next time we visit.  Highly recommend the fishing trip.

My 9 year old son and I booked a trip with Captain Justin and had a wonderful experience on our first FL panhandle fishing experience. Relatively amateur fisherman from the Midwest, Captain Justin Knocked it out of the park. From his communication leading up to the trip about weather, meeting place, recommendation to leave a little sooner to beat the heat via email and text, it was off to a great start. He was hands on with my 9 year old and was VERY patient with us both. He actually took my son “under his wing” and actually let DAD fish for a little bit. Dads and moms, who go fishing with their kids can relate because you are always baiting hooks, fixing lines or taking fish off. We trolled in the bay and fished (with shrimp and artificial) in the flats (fished for Spanish mackerel with no luck but caught lady fish, black speckled trout, and a pompano (lucky catch). Was able to pay and tip (if necessary) using Venmo at the end of the 3 hour kid trip. We will book again with Captain Justin and suggest you do too.

Our family went out in the bay with Captain Justin for my husbands birthday. Unfortunately we had a stormy morning so we were unable to get out into the gulf, but Captain Justin did his best to put us on some trout in the bay. He also did an awesome job keeping us away from the rain, which I was so thankful for. Even though we couldn’t get in the deep water(can’t control the weather), we had a blast in the flats. My boys (Ages 5 & 6) caught many small trout, pinfish, a few catfish, and even got a squirrelfish while trolling the bay. We tried our luck with the sharks and Spanish mackerel, but the murky bay from the storms was against us. We can’t wait to come back to Florida and try again for some deep water and hopefully bring some fish home. All in all, even though we had Mother Nature against us, I believe Captain Justin was an awesome guy to go out on the water with. He was very nice, knowledgeable, and helpful/patient with my young sons.

I booked a Father’s Day trip for my husband and our two oldest (6 and 9) with Captain Justin and let me just say… THE BEST EXPERIENCE! Not only did my boys get to reel in a variety of saltwater species but caught sharks as big as they are. Captain Justin was so helpful upon booking too! He answered every question/concern I had, communicated with my husband and I weeks ahead and up until the day of! Very knowledgeable, respectful and also loves what he does. My children truly adored him! From start to finish Justin was fun, friendly and had the kids all hyped up and then DELIVERED! For hours my boys can’t stop talking about the day and already asking to go back. At first I was hesitant to do anything like this with my boys being inexperienced and young but after today I’d not only trust Captain Justin once again but 100% recommend him for anyone! Adults, families, children or just a private trip. He’s awesome and a very down to earth local. Knowledge, skill and absolutely wonderful at his job and hobby. You can just tell he’s passionate every single trip and every person he gets to meet! Not only is the price reasonable and arrangements even better for our budget but completely worth every single penny. We will most definitely be back! My husband and I are already planning another trip and looking forward to another fun filled day on the water! If you are in between choosing or buying… there’s no question, this guy is the BEST!
