Hound Dawg Charters
If you're looking for a charter that can take you into the Atlantic after some major pelagic predators, as well as provide a fun and safe experience for new anglers, you're looking for Hound Dawg Charters. Captain Ricky Falls knows all the hottest fishing spots around, from the coast to the deep blue sea.
Join Capt. Ricky or Capt. Matt and 1st. Mate Garren aboard 'Hound Dawg', a 48' Viking sport fishing boat. She's quite spacious, able to hold 6 anglers fishing at the same time without bumping elbows. She's quite comfortable, so you can relax and just focus on the perfect cast. A fully air-conditioned cabin will keep you cool. Added comfort comes from a full-head toilet, brand new indoor couch and seating, and brand new carpet and counter tops.
She's seriously equipped for sportfishing too. Outriggers will extend your reach when trolling, while a live bait tank makes sure your bait stays active and appetizing. A fighting chair will give you support as you battle big boys offshore. Her brand new 2021 dual 625 FPT engines allow you to cruise at a maximum speed of 28 knots, impressive for a vessel her size.
Capt. Ricky will take you after a variety of gorgeous fish. You'll troll for Kingfish and Sailfish, bottom fish for Groupers, and also do some spinning and drift fishing. You can even do some kite fishing for Marlin! You will be provided with all the required equipment by the captain.
There is a first mate on board to clean and fillet your catch, also to assist you in any way possible. He works for tips and a 20% tip is customary.
Get your polarized sunglasses and waterproof camera, and book a trip to set off on an offshore adventure of a lifetime with Hound Dawg Charters!

I have to start with Thank you. There are certain things that words cannot convey. Thank you doesn't do it justice. 3 minutes into this boarding we all felt welcomed and confident. All the fishing charters take you fishing, but we had to stop catching. Capt. Rick and Garren are great hosts and as professional as they come. It's hard to believe they had time to be hosts, as hard as they worked. We fished with them, but I also believe we have friends we will see again! The boat had ample space for fishing, chilling, and napping. You took 6 people away from any noise they had going on in their lives for two days! Salud! See you again...

thank you so much Jay for your awesome review of Capt. Garren and 1st mate Ray. I will definitely let the boys know. thanks Jamie (owner)
Had a great time with Capt. Garren, and mates Ray and Seth. They worked hard to put us on fish even though there was some decent wind blowing. Caught a bunch of yellow tail snapper and black fin tuna that we took back for lunch.
