glGreat boat with a great captain! very knowledgeable and down to earth! We felt very safe and enjoyed our fishing trip so much so we plan to book again in the future!
Great time with great people!! looking forward to having yall again soon
Sure, here’s a great review for a fishing charter: I recently had an amazing experience with captain Chad and I can't recommend them highly enough! From the moment we boarded the boat, the crew was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. They made sure we had everything we needed and were comfortable throughout the trip. The captain knew all the best spots, and we caught a variety of fish, including some impressive big ones! The boat was clean and well-maintained, and the equipment was top-notch. It was a fantastic day out on the water, and I'll definitely be booking with them again. If you're looking for a memorable fishing adventure, [Fishing Captain Chad is the way to go!
Had a blast with a great father / son duo on this trip. Both caught the first and many Redfish!
Covered a lot spots, heat of midsummer made it a little tough but Capt. Chad kept us on the bite. Great guy! Born and raised local with alot of knowledge! Thanks buddy! Jim Flowers/Dave Dawson WPBFD retirees.
Thanks guys. Had a blast sharing stories and catching some fish. Good luck to you guys and especially Dave!!
Me and my wife an amazing day, and can’t wait to do it again. The Capt. Was so friendly and knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible!
Great people, quick learners and fun to have on the boat. It was windy and slow but Blake and Jessica fished hard all day and left with some filets for dinner!
