Changes in Latitude Charters 

Had a 3 hour charter today with Captain Brian, he is wonderful! He was very friendly, personable, and authentic. Additionally, he took the time to show us the basics of fishing as well as provide tips and tricks that we can use in the future. He really cares about you and your experience, and is there to provide guidance and help when needed. He was very involved, consistently ensuring that our lines had bait, were cast appropriately, and was very supportive and helpful when we caught fish. His time management was excellent, he ensured we were able to get as much fishing time as possible. He is also very knowledgeable and willing to teach. In addition to learning how to fish successfully, he taught us about each fish as we would catch them! I’d recommend him any day, and look forward to going back on one of his charters at some point soon!

Captain Brian landed us on fish inmediately! Took us some coaching to learn to saltwater fish but he got us dialed in and then we moved around for different species. His knowledge of the waterways and fish locations is amazing and lputsbyou at ease knowing you are in good hands. Could not recommend enough, will be back!

Brian was a wonderful fishing guide. Kind and patient as we adjusted to fishing the Matlacha Pass area. Brian has solid knowledge of the area and where to find the fish. He gave us every opportunity to catch fish. Bonus was keepers for dinner. I will not hesitate to book another trip with Brian.

We had a great afternoon with Captain Brian. He teached us how to use the rod and after that we had immediately catched some fish.

Had a great fishing trip with Captain Brian. We had all levels of fishing knowledge in the boat. Captain Brian was super knowledgeable and taught us how to catch the fish we were after. Captain Brian did everything he could to keep us on fish and came home with dinner for the family.

Captain Brian was great from start to finish. Great communication and flexibility to change the trip when it looked like westher would not cooperate. Took us to multiple locations to catch different kinds of fish. Did a great job of explaining how to best catch each kind of fish and why. He would be the perfect captain for any level of angler. Very fair priced trip. Would be hard to find a better one.

We did the 3 hour trip and it was the perfect amount of time! Captain Brian was very knowledgeable and helped us every step of the way. He was very patient taught us all of his tips and tricks. We caught a bunch of Ladyfish, Speckled Trout, and Mackerel. It also helped that he knew all of the best spots. We were catching fish almost every cast. Definitely going to be booking again next year!

My wife and I , along with our two daughters (aged 14 and 11) have been on several saltwater charters over the past few years, with varying degrees of success. Every experience has been positive. We are avid fisherman in our home state of MN. I am a very experienced fisherman , my wife and daughters are less experienced. First off , Brian is very serious about catching fish. He was hired to do a job , and he certainly excelled at giving us consitent and plentiful opportunities on nice trout and redfish. Brian is so serious about the fishing , that he let our 11 year old hear about it multiple times , when she didn’t follow his instruction to a T. It rubbed me the wrong way at first , but we let it roll and she seemed to take it in stride. I wish he could have approached this differently , but the end result was my child lazer focused , and catching more nice fish than she ever has. As a matter of fact , we all caught a lot of fish , and I even landed a 30” redfish made possible only by the captain putting me in the perfect situation. Brian will also guard your fising spot like a bulldog. One boat of googans tried stealing our drift after they must have been spying on us hammering the fish through binoculars. Brian quickly dealt with assailants by blocking their path and making sure they were aware that they had violated the code of the flats. Although I don’t disagree with Capatain Brian on the ethics of what happened , I think the prudent course of action, with kids on the boat , should have been something other that intiiating a close range verbal confrontation with other fisherman. In the instance that a boat passed by at a higher speed than we would have liked , Captain Brian greeted rhem with the one finger salute and some choice words. Again, I did not disagree with the Captains sentiment …but , there are kids onboard. Brian is a very skilled fisherman and knows his waters very well. Would we fish with him again? Absolutely. His softer side starts to come through later in the trip. He’s passionate about what he does , and that is what its all about.

Captain Brian took our party of three out to celebrate my son’s 10th birthday. The icing on the cake was being able to take home enough Sea Trout to feed our party back home AS WELL AS a hard fight with a Bonnethead Shark. My son now wants to trade off ice fishing and the Midwest to guide on his own someday just like Brian. This was a short but truly memorable trip for the books. We would recommend Brian to anyone wanting to quickly learn the ways of the flats of the gulf.

Had a blast with Brian on a two hour trip. Wanted to do something shorter with taking my parents along who dont fish. Brian is very knowledgable and got us on plenty of fish for the shorter trip! Cant wait to come back!
