awesome trip
5 Hour Trip (AM) on June 10, 20266 adults1 child

We couldn’t be more pleased with our trip on the legacy. The captain and the deck hand were amazing. We caught alot of fish with a great variety of fish. The deck hand recommended the best seafood restaurant I have ever eaten at to cook our fresh fish that he cleaned for us. We had seven people in our party including one nine year old. The trip was great for all ages highly recommend this charter trip.

A great day on the water!
5 Hour Trip (PM) – Trolling/Bottom on July 27, 20265 adults5 children

Even though a tropical storm had gone through a few days before and fishing in the area was slow by all reports, we were still able to get on fish. Trolling was a bit slow for a bite but jigging for snapper gave us all a lot of hot action. The captain and deck hand were friendly and helpful making it a memorable experience. Everyone enjoyed the trip.

Great Trip
5 Hour Trip (AM) on June 9, 20268 adults8 children

We took our baseball team and this was all of their first time being on the ocean. The boys all caught fish and had a blast. The captain was great but the two crew members were amazing. They kept hooks baited and took all the fish off the hooks. They were very personable and have lots of fishing storys to share. Both very knowledgeable. Would definitely book again!!
