Great Day!!!!!!!
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 15, 20262 adults

Capt. Jp was absolutely amazing, he listened to exactly what we wanted and he provided exactly that. Non stop fish after fish caught 7 different species including what we wanted. He was very accommodating. I would recommend to anyone that wants to have a great time and catch another of fish. He will definitely be my captain for now on. Thank you for a wonderful day.. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

10/10 trip for our group! Captain JP was awesome and had GREAT camaraderie. Funny, knowledgable, and liked to give us a health dose of sarcasm which WAS AMAZING! The trip is best for a small bach party, to celebrate a friend or family members birthday, or just you and your boys wanna get out on the water and catch some fish!

Great trip
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 16, 20262 adults

Great time. Captain Jack was great. My son and I caught around 30-35 fish in 5 hours. Mahi. Amberjack (out of season, had to throw back), Spanish mackerels, and bonitos. Jack gave my son a bunch of pointers on fishing for once we got back home and even set up a rig for him to use. 2 thumbs up.

Great mornimg with Captain JP
5 Hour Trip on May 28, 20263 adults

My fishing trip in the Gulf of Mexico (last year) was just average. This time it was amazing. our Captain was fun, professional and very good at his craft. We caught a couple big Amberjacks (out of season so we couldn’t keep them), a Spanish Mackerel, a bunch of Beeliners and Red Snapper! We cooked the ones we could keep the next day and it was the best fish we’ve ever eaten. A great trip and would recommend to anyone!! We will be back!

Great Day on the water
5 Hour Trip on July 16, 20251 adult1 child

After a cancellation by another boat because of engine problems was able to book a last minute trip with Captain Pic. This trip was to take out my fishing loving 14 year old son. The trip was perfect as Captain Pic was super knowledgeable about different styles of fishing and where to catch numerous different species on our 4 hour trip. We caught Amber Jack, Beeliners, Snapper, and Grouper. We were literally catching fish for 4 hours straight pausing only to move spots. Captain was very interesting to chat with as well. You won’t find anyone who knows more about fishing in the area. It was an awesome day fishing.

Reported catch:
Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)

Response from Captain

It was a good day. 3 nice amberjack at the start, steady birds all day. Love the competitive nature of you and your son. Fun day, thank you.
